Rors what time can you play tonight? I was banging my head against BF3 to try and get it to run without crashing all night last night. I'd just as soon play a shitty game that runs tonight, so it's either our game or Halo.

Should have traded away the only picks you had left like I did. :cool: Thanks for trading everything away, Al! RIP!

Livewire: would you take a first rounder next year? :p

Overrated rookies are for jerks.

Depending on the trade terms I may be willing to take a lower pick this year and a higher pick next year. But since you said you have no picks this year, sorry. :(

You can have Jason Campbell back!

Depending on how Schaub performs down the stretch he could be on the block. If you're in the NFL thread you know I can barely stand him anyways. Could potentially be time for the Leinart era to begin if Romo Jr folds.

Can't believe those missed tackles on this big three scores. Mendenhall breaking tackles like Bo Jackson, thought he had some popcorn grease on him. Then I blitzed that apparent swiss-cheese OL, Wallace caught it, broke another tackle and scored easily. The defense hasn't been that bad all season. Even getting back Fujita and Ward didn't really help.

Oh well, if my defense gets ripped by the overrated Kolb next I know I have some additions I need to make defensively for the draft/FA.

ESPN BREAKING NEWS: Several NFL teams have reportedly made postseason trade inquiries with the Washington Redskins. Due to their 2-10 record, the Redskins are currently in a position to select 1st overall in the 2012 NFL Draft and rumor has it that they are actively looking at shopping the pick. In addition, the Redskins have 19 players on their roster in contract years, with another dozen entering contract years in 2012, and sources say that they are heavily evaluating their roster and will continue with their rebuilding efforts, and that, as one source put it: "no one is assured a roster spot."

Why is the ESPN reporter a representative for the Redskins? Fucking shoddy journalism

EA doesn't allow imports in online franchise. they have a created draft class that we will be able to see before the draft. there are usually a handful of truly elite players.... and then plenty of other good players.

if i had to list a hall of fame created players right now it would be:

1. giovanni girley - 70 rated rb with like 99 speed
2. jack english - great qb!
3. tim tribow (not a joke)
4. leron james - lulz
5. mack jackson (i think that was his name) - injury machine.... pwill jr.!

any other notables?

Mack Jackson was easily the best made up player in the Madden 10 franchise. Deion Grimes should be up there as well, that guy was fucking auto-win. The repeated twins set, PA pass to a crossing Grimes was almost indefensible.

I'm set tho, Rey-Rey, Man-Law, and Rivers will progress to unstoppable levels. They will be the finest set of LBs in the league by year 3. Add Carlos Dunlap and Michael Johnson to that mix, I will soon have 6 90+ players on D.

One less than the Steelers

GG man, your run D just wasn't doing you any favors in that game. I've never seen the types of holes I was getting in that game. I think he actually only broke one tackle and was untouched on both of the huge run plays, then Redman was untouched on the counter, it was funny to me that I was able to get the edge on that play, he's not fast at all, meanwhile I hit Wallace on a slant and some LB catches up to him from 5 yards behind, really hate the pursuit inconsistencies in this game.

Mendenhall is made of glass, he's gotten injured in probably 50% of the games this year, and he missed like 6 weeks due to one injury, luckily, Redman is overrated in the game for whatever reason, plays well beyond his OVR stats...

So, the game was in the rain again, I don't think the patch affected OF at all, or it's just bad luck. Anyone else getting a lot of rain games still?

Anyways, lose to FMT next week, win my final 2, it's all good.

I didn't have any hitches of lag in that rain game. Had some stupid drops by my receivers, but that's really all.

Nah I didn't lag either, but that's still like my 6th (maybe more?) rain game this year, just gets old after a while.

lol Smokey just threw a BAD pick in the redzone with a chance to win the game.

Brees gives it right back...smokey drives to the 33 with 3 seconds left and the kick is......

NO GOOD!

I updated the standings. Of note 16 of the 32 teams in the league are currently represented here. Half the league is fighting for a top 10 pick right now!

I think the rest of the draft order would be:

16. Bills 6-6
16. Broncos 6-6
16. Jets 6-6
16. Saints 6-6
20. Cardinals 7-5
20. Chargers 7-5
20. Vikings 7-5
23. Colts 8-4
23. Bengals
23. Buccs 8-4
23. Stealers 8-4
27. Eagles 9-3
27. Giants 9-3
29. Texans 10-2
30. 49ers 12-0
30. Raiders 12-0

(arranged alphabetically because I have no idea how EA does draft tie breakers)
