I need to play in a dome.

 

[daw840]

GG EZ,

You won the suck for Luck battle today!

Spoiler

JK, I don't tank. Go hard every time. Unlike Bob's tankin ass!

 

[daw840]

Except....you don't need a QB. LOL.

On that note, that's probably the last game of the season I even had a chance at winning. The Crow win was probably more a fluke than anything....and I'll be lucky to even score against Rors.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

3 games left:

dolphins vs. bills
giants vs. redskins
browns vs. cards

 

[eznark]

Whatever I do to pass just gets destroyed in the elements. I don't know if I press too hard or what, but in the elements I just have no idea where the ball is going. Plus, now Finley is hurt. Awesome.

At least with the Bengals I had an excuse.

Cards don't have power. Giants just got power.

 

[DCX]

Bird, when can you play brosef?

DCX

 

[CB3]

isnt drizzler on vacation or something as well. Let AT/Livewire play and sim the other two or let Striker/Mik play the CPU

 

[Rorschach]

Aren't there playoff implications for Albatross?

i notice in frisco with high winds i have to steer the ball a bit more with kapernick. for instance, if i'm playing in a dome and i have an out pattern to vernon davis, i just need to not be moving the left stick after my drop back and fire the ball in there and it's usually right on target.

but in frisco, with heavy winds, i have noticed that a lot of the time i need to aim it behind the receiver or its over thrown. so if i have vernon lined up on the right side running an out, as i throw the ball i need to be pressing the left stick to the left and lead it back. this is sometimes dangerous if he hasn't cleared a zone or if its tight man coverage, but if there is some space the ball will get there safely. the problem with this approach is that it doesn't really allow as much RAC yards :/

I didn't even know that was a thing

you can also press up to have them jump or down to throw low. it's an inexact system because on fly patterns if i push up it doesn't necessarily make them jump for the ball, just leads it out farther. but on slant plays (for instance) they do jump sometimes.

test it out in practice mode.... bruh!

 

[DMczaf]

And the Bucs quietly clinch the NFC South.

 

[CB3]

McNabb was awesome at leading passes in Madden 09/10

Vick not so much

Heh, awesome. I did it all the time in NCAA but I figured it was one of those great things that the Madden retards never bothered to bring over.

 

[Rorschach]

And the Bucs quietly clinch the NFC South.

And then they will quietly lose to the 9ers in the playoffs.

[edit] WTF>?! Even Kaepernick can lead passes? Why the fuck can't Campbell?!

 

[mik]

Drizzler and I have tentatively scheduled to have buttsex at 11:30 eastern.


And by "buttsex," I mean "buttsex."

 

[DMczaf]

And then they will quietly lose to the 9ers in the playoffs.

I don't lose quietly.

There will be no "gg" after that game!

That reminds me. Can't wait until Dalton advances this offseason to like 75/76.

Wouldn't want to advance without giving albatross a fair shot since he does have playoff implications!

Not true! I saw you lead a couple right into the Gatorade bucket.

Lysol Toilet Bowl Game of the Week for Week 16:

Browns @ Ravens

Two bitter rivals face off once more!

 

[CB3]

Not true! I saw you lead a couple right into the Gatorade bucket.

I love when he rockets a quick slant 30 yards down the field once a game.

 

[eznark]

Do I have the tie breaker?

 

[LukeSmith]

And then they will quietly lose to the 9ers in the playoffs.

[edit] WTF>?! Even Kaepernick can lead passes? Why the fuck can't Campbell?!

While you quietly win the AFC, stomping everyone out.

 

[bluemax]

Do I have the tie breaker?

I have no idea! I try to list everything alphabetically because in the past that was the only tie breaker that EA knew how to implement.

I suppose this is the actual tie breaker:

3. The next tiebreaker is strength of schedule. This is determined by calculating the combined record of the 16 opponents of each team. The records of divisional opponents are counted twice because they are each played twice. The combined number of wins and losses for each team adds up to 256. The team whose opponents combined for the fewest wins has the weaker strength of schedule and gets to pick first. That's because the team that gets the same record against weaker opponents is the weaker team.

Let me look at SoS!

 

[DCX]

Looks like I'd have the tie breaker! Of course the Browns, Redskins and Ravens are all still hanging around so nothing is settled yet!

 

[daw840]

You guys are crazy to think EA actually goes that far into the tie breakers.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

I don't lose quietly.

There will be no "gg" after that game!

i would say i'll beat you like the real life niners did to the bucs but i don't think i could ever destroy anyone as badly as we destroyed the bucs

 

[bluemax]

You guys are crazy to think EA actually goes that far into the tie breakers.

Hence why I've been listing things in alphabetic order since I figured that was the only actual tie breaker.

 

[eznark]

Doesn't matter. I'm just going to draft the fastest quarterback available again.

Rodgers for Watt?

Andy makes me appreciate what I always had with Eli.

Andy:

OVR - 71, THP - 85, TAS - 86, TAM - 79, TAD - 63

Eli:

OVR - 88, THP - 90, TAS - 88, TAM - 85, TAD - 84

 

[bluemax]

Doesn't matter. I'm just going to draft the fastest quarterback available again.

Shit if you want a fast QB I'll trade you T-Jack for Rodgers straight up!

 

[Mrbob]

Bob ruined his best chance to tank by beating me!

You threw 5 ints, I kicked 4 field goals! What am I supposed to do? You out tanked me you sonfoabeech.

If someone has a top 3 pick, I'm interested and will pay to move up.

Eli:

OVR - 88, THP - 90, TAS - 88, TAM - 85, TAD - 84

So overrated.

 

[daw840]

If you draft a QB we need to talk about Rogers coming to the Chefs.

 

[Sanjuro]

I'll trade Brady for Rodgers!

 

[ph33nix]

so there's no chance of advancing tonight right?

if so balb can you play

 

[daw840]

I'll trade Brady for Rodgers!

Cassel for Brady! Send him home!

 

[Sanjuro]

Cassel for Brady! Send him home!

I do like Cassel...hmmm

i'll trade you kapernick for rodgers and then i'll re-sign alex smith so rogers can back him up

 

[Sanjuro]

I've had a few people message me about Mallet, but would any of you actually be interested in Brady? Might as well start prepping my offseason.

let brady come home to frisco! i'll give you whatever you want besides patrick willis

How many times do you have to be told to stop offering your mouth for virtual players?

 

[Sanjuro]

I'd be looking for a bit. Probably along the lines of a couple draft picks and a player.

He backs up Ice.
