they need to fix the injury system. i have still yet to see a QB injured. RARELY do i see RB's and WR's injured. more often then not the defender gets injured because the offensive player :/

maybe it's different in the online franchise mode though

Shut UP! If they fix injuries I'll lose Felix Jones to the Jets all season week 1 =(

I will say since I listened to CK's advice after our last game I have played MUCH better. Getting excited to start the league.

that TD Celek NFL street caught was luck. But the Willis sky 1 hand interception that preceded it was just as bad. so i felt no remorse.

LB's shouldnt have that animation at all

there is something wonky about the AI when the ball is tipped. you have had that shit happen before.... ridiculous.

as for the willis pick whatever. you threw right at him, what do you expect?

the eagles are almost indefensible. i can spy with my fastest lb and vick can have all day to throw because he's faster. the WR's are fast enough to where you can't play man, and then they eventually just break open of the zone since vick can buy all the time in the world. if you do cover those 2 things, then just throw it to someone in the flats who is uncovered because if you play in that area you are giving up coverage downfield.

pass D is kinda shitty in this game. i mean i had over 300 yards with kapernick and i really only passed on 3 drives. sure, asante made the physically impossible "coming out of bump animation but i can still recover to make the pick even though the receiver is 5 yards past me while i'm still in that animation", but aside from that i had no problems when i went to passing sets

I figured id bust out the big guns against you since the league will open tomorrow. If anyone who played me before thought they were getting the full experience, sorry. :) Before today was largely pre-season for me. Not meaning i didnt try. i tried to win every game. But i was experimenting with different offensive playbooks and kept my defense and sub packages extremely vanilla.

Cant wait to get this show on the road tomorrow.

how many yards did you have the previous game? 27?

I said for the most part. i did a decent job against AP today. Ryan Matthews gashed me but alot of that was the slowdown i had in my game with Nightz, as well as keeping damn near 3 guys dedicated to Gates (which didnt help in stopping him)

i ran 5 times for 27 yards in the game before that so.... yeah. i don't even think my first run of the game came until the 2nd quarter. still seeing what works and what doesn't in the pass game. i already know i can run :D

Are we starting tomorrow?

Wanted to toy around with some more defensive procedures. But I guess that's tough luck. Are FA's also on pick-up around Week 5 as usual? I need some freakin' depth, or starters. :lol

No free agency till the end of the season . At least that's the latest proposal unless there is an injury.

Season 1 will mainly be stock teams barring any trades. Which need to be decided upon quickly due to people playing tonight.

That throwing stick stunt of yours has boomeranged on us.

Assuming we start tonight, I'd prefer to get a practice game in with Chicago first, I've been lazy about getting to that, sorry.

yeah, false alarm for the invites i sent out. the rosters are NOT updated yet (on 360 anyways)

p.s. i could play a quick game if anyone is around

mik is unbeatable
So, can you not update the rosters at all once the franchise is created? Even if no one has played yet? That's kind of lame (though unsurprising) if true.

I figured we would get the week 5 and give lesser ranked teams preference at first right to refuse but we may be going in stock.

So if you guys have any trade ideas now is the time .

Also with a salary cap in place, i think it will eliminate the need for voting. You want two mega WRs, have fun with that 60 rated O and D line as thats all you'll be able to afford.

Oh, this isn't official word. This is just DCX trying to get more trades. Well, I have nothing good to trade! Good day sir!

I'm reporting based on internal conversations i had with two of the 8 members of the former counsel. I really don't have trades to make. I have one position i'd like to upgrade and two positions with depth that if i can move a player, i will.

Live and Smokey are the ones with the DEAL OF THE CENTURY.
