GG man. I was so pissed after that screen pass.... I read the play early enough, but I got stuck on a block.
It felt like my receivers (all but Colston) were dropping balls like crazy. I know I had at least 3, and Brees was 13-18. That was probably my best passing game with him so far. Everything felt like it was right on the money.

gg ramirez. i think you have thrown 10 picks in 2 games against the niners. your lb's killed my run game this time though. thankfully kap had 1 good drive.... the first drive of the game!

lol, I stopped caring after about the 3rd or 4th one. That last one I threw where your LB had rocket boots on made me want to puke.
INTs aside, the game was over when I got the holding call on me on my first drive, killed my momentum, led to the pick 6 and pretty much put me in catch up mode the entire game resulting in a gargantuan amount of picks.
Some of those were bad throws, but others shouldn't have been picks at all. I get so sick of seeing WRs wide open, you throw it in anticipation of where the route is going, and instead the QB throws a laser right where the defender is standing, annoying to say the least.

Speaking of playbooks, I find it kind of cool that they incorporated the Perry Fewell wrinkles. They have three sub packages that move the extra S around like last year. Nice touch on their part. They don't have any QB spy plays tho, which I found out last night as Crow tore me apart with Tebow.
That said, the Giants offensive PB is decent. My main beef is that they don't have enough running options out of the off-set I formations.

GG. Losing Bush in the first didn't help either. Larry Johnson just isn't what he used to be. Felt like the game was picking on me after the overturned fumble just for me to fumble it again a play or two later. My fault though, used to NCAA where covering the ball up isn't as necessary. I've been getting a bunch of safeties lately. Like 5 in my last 4 games. Fields + this D is beastly

What do you mean by assist? In our game you had the cursor over the CB covering Nicks making it seem like you were user controlling him but it was clear you were just letting the game rock and then trying to make a play if you could. I ran play actions, combo routes, options, etc and you were still there.DCX said:
Did you learn in 3 days how to play CB better than Fifty?

Can HDMI cables die? My picture is gone. Been trying to fix it since that last post of mine. My xbox and comcast are hooked up to the bose while my gamecube his connected directly to the tv. I get no picture or audio on the comcast now and no picture on the xbox. I switched it all to a dif hdmi input too and got the same results. The gamecube works fine on it's own input. Can't figure it out.

i have another (older) TV that i use HDMI on. they are cables i got from monoprice and when i moved the tv and re-plugged everything in, the HDMI picture wouldn't come up anymore. i had gotten these cables in 2006 and so i just bought a new cheapy HDMI off amazon for a couple bucks and it fixed the problem. not sure if it will fix your problem though.
also, gg livewire. you need to work on your redzone offense. 3 trips inside the 10, 0 points!

yeah, it is going to be a struggle for those of us with average or below average qb's
and how would you know if it is very hard to run? you ran the ball 4 times all game! in any game i've played so far this year where people continually throw, they end up losing or getting blown out (whether it's me throwing a lot or my opponent). i mean you're going to get yards here and there if you throw 40 times but you're probably going to lose. it's like playing blackjack in vegas, eventually the house always wins in the end even if you won some of the individual matches. the house is pass defense!

LJ: try uninstalling. Seemed to work for me. :\
In offline franchise, they have preset contracts when you sign them. You usually can't sign them for any less than whatever they want upfront. Since FA bidding isn't active on the site, he was wondering if he had to wait until the feature is available to sign FAs.DMczaf said:
