Official Xbox 360 Madden '12 Online Franchise Thread: Dream Team Edition

It was so much fun watching the Red Sox completely fucking choke out their game, then flipping channels and watching Longoria put it out of the park moments later.
 
the kyle orton experiment is over. he is a great passer between 5-10 yards, anything more comes out like a fucking duck. what's the point of being "accurate" if you can't get the ball there in time! going back to kap!

anyways, although the game tried to take the win from me by giving DM fumble after fumble (though he recovered only 1.... for a TD) i had just enough to win it in OT. i honestly thought the kick was no good. looked really far right but just squeaked in.

oh AND the game tried to fuck me at the end of regulation. tied 21-21 i stop DM. he punts to me and i fair catch with my guy standing on about my 30 or 35. i did not move him AT ALL, and to my surprise ted ginn RUNS OUT OF THE FUCKING WAY! i have no control over this! then the ball takes a fucking 30 yard bounce TO THE 2 YARD LINE! are you fucking kidding me? fucking ridiculous.

pwill gets his revenge with the OT sack. mmmm

I was on the phone with my girlfriend when Longoria hit that. So amazing. Sucks the Tigers have to play them in the ALCS

Nah the Rays play the Rangers. The Yankees play the Tigers.

I love Madden physics.

Safety running at full speed about 2-3 yards further down field than my WR on a slant, should be an easy catch for Mike Williams who is in better position, oh wait the safety has decided to stop on a dime and go into a catching animation right where the ball is all of a sudden. Magically no torn ACL or MCL!

This game continues to leave me speechless. Same problems every week. dropped passes, overthrown routes, fumbles, dropped picks. CJ Spiller ran through and broke a tackle through my whole defense on one TD.

All my underdog bets are coming true. I would have bankrupted Livewire's casino!

You'd be the only smart mark in the bunch. Everyone else would be betting big on most of the favorites. That's why I liked including the money lines....but in the end it's too much work. Vegas is amazing at that shit though... :O

Luckily i have livewire to set me back to my winning ways next week. Just like the real life Eagles have the 9ers!

as ive said since before the season, i seriously doubt we can beat the eagles in philly, even if you guys were starting your backups. unless our offensive line magically becomes somewhat competent, we just don't have any offense.

but i will say mike vick is going to get fucked up. if its worth it to the eagles to start their top guy against a team they'll probably beat anyways then more power to them!

and can't you even tell mik gg!?

The Spiller TD was pretty silly, but I've definitely seen worse...

http://www.easports.com/media/play/video/95328935

Like, for example, the TD my tight end caught, even though he almost tripped over the 10-yard line for no reason whatsoever...

http://www.easports.com/media/play/video/95329188

^Why i didnt say good game. Not that it was his fault or anything. Mik didnt use FMT's game shark to make things break that way. But when things like that happen how can i say its a good game.

Although i have a new found respect for mik acknowledging when he got breaks. Cause i sure as hell know and acknowledge when it happens to me (not very many fucking times this year!)

Nice run. Last year Clinton Portis put up FOUR of those on CB. Still puts a smile on my face.... :)

Ah yes, the game where it took you atleast 4 counts of EA's god hand guiding you through my defense for you to beat me. Funny how that has been the only time ever.
 

mik

mik is unbeatable
I did get breaks, no doubt. But I think I played some pretty good defense (including holding you to an FG after a first and goal inside the five), and I really only made one mistake on offense (which, sadly, cost me six points).

lulz you are both playing the same game. you are playing with a ridiculously loaded team. i'm actually baffled that you have lost a game at all this season but then i look at mccoy getting 2-7 rushes per game and i understand that, much like the real eagles, it's not the players that should always be blamed for a loss but rather a coach who should better utilize his talent

We all dont have overrated lines that can break through a brick wall like you. Its unfortunate the game lets you throw into double coverage at VD blind without making you pay else you would really be in trouble

Like EA's god hand overrating the real-life Eagles for the past, oh I dunno, 7 years? Funny how the Madden or real-life Eagles never won anything.

its expected on some short routes. Im used to the McNabb wild random cannons so thats nothing new. But Vick throws one of the best deep balls in the game. something that ive missed on in the past 3 games. Especially against AT. Even VY was putting the long balls on target against DCX (though they were broken up by good coverage by DCX's DB's. But atleast they were on the mark)

well if it makes you feel any better i wasted some draft picks for orton who sucks dick unless i'm throwing short routes. 5 picks in the past 2 games is ridiculous

It was a bad move all along. Orton struck no fear into me when we played. he wasnt a huge improvement over Alex or Colin. And atleast those two could bail you out on the run
 
GG Bob

Intense 4th quarter. down to the very last play. I thought you had it wrapped up after your ridiculous 3rd quarter TD drive and the jetpack pick by your linebacker. But Madden gifted me an interception and some monster sacks in the last drive.

THAT IS WHY WE PLAY THE GAME FOLKS

My linebackers are dieing. I lost Na'il Diggs that game, and then my backup too. This is getting comical. I have no one left in the depth chart besides the guys playing.

Yeah that last drive was crazy. I was in a groove down to the 20 and then my oline decided to revert back to suck mode and they were getting crushed. Thems the breaks!

Trade me Vick! I'll overpay you for his inaccurate ass. Contact me before week 6 please. I have plenty of run blocking OL too!


PS:
Tim Tebow (2/3, 19 yards, 0 TDs, 0 INTs)
Noel Devine (6 atts, 180 yards, 2 TDs
wuuuut

Crow's statline reads the same as his Shagg Makino stat lines.


2011 Noel Devine HB Broncos 21 369 17.6 5

Nice work defenses.

This happens to me every time I call a fair catch and I don't have any help around my return guy, 2 defenders run up, and my guy takes off, stupid.

GG Pheeniks, thought I had crapped the bed down 17-0 in the first quarter, Redman came up big time and Ben was picking the D apart, the one INT he threw was because Wallace didn't run his intended route, I hate this game so much sometimes...

Mendenhall out 4 weeks, feels bad man.

I've never heard of Noel Devine, but I don't follow the Bronco's much, is he another Patrick Cobb situation? :p

Althought, I did put up like 120 with Redman on like 13 carries, so I can't say much either.

that Spiller play reminds me of the Cruz play from last Sunday. Hard to call BS after seeing that display.

Devine played for West Virginia I believe. Very good rb. Didn't get drafted and didn't make a team. He is A pot and has 94 spd.

I bid for him until I realized I shouldn't be paying him more than my current back up and Jaquizz Rodgers who is another A pot guy.

Now Crow is going to run the league with Devine.

I didn't even notice him on the list but his CAR rating is 69, probably wouldn't have bid anyway.

If you guys can't stop Devine, what's going to happen when the draft introduces the high speed rookie RBs? Either way i am glad I already played Crow.

Yea, i guess if you can't touch him, it doesn't matter :/

Just an FYI...Cobbs actually led the NCAA in rushing and scoring one year.
