Official Xbox 360 Madden '12 Online Franchise Thread OT2 Mr Peyton Goes To Washington

ugh why is kapernick so fucking horrible. i have guys wide open deep and he hangs that shit so badly it gets picked. then i throw short and his release is so slow that its easy to break on the ball -_-

Because he is a qb that couldnt beat out Alex Smith for a job

Henne for a third round pick? Solves one of those porblems, dude has a rocket! He overthrows 70% of wide open deep receivers though.

I love how you're shocked that your terrible backup QB has been playing up to his real abilities lately. Why have you not drafted or traded for a QB?

if i gave you a qb with these stats:

89 speed
92 THP
91 short accuracy
92 medium accuracy
82 deep accuracy

you would say "hey that aint bad!" but here we are!
 
His awareness is 59, I'm sure that has some effect on him.

no one at EA has ever said how awareness affects a user controlled QB (or even if it does!).

i'm of the opinion that it doesn't matter for a human controlled QB. this is how the following QB's have superbowl titles in our madden league:

alex smith
tim rattay
pat white
jamarcus russell

I suppose, but the ratings don't match the results that you talk about. One would assume his awareness might contribute to bad throws, even if he is user controlled. *shrug*

Really, all that list of terrible QBs proves is that cheese wins out!

Hey Bob, I know it's late but any chance you're around and want to go?

If not, anyone want to scrim? I need to figure my shit out asap :(

lol, line play is so broken in this game.

http://www.easports.com/media/play/video/117014794

This is the only one that had a replay, but yea, if I had a dollar for every time Luke/Wellie get DEs coming in untouched, I'd be a rich man!

Game was over as soon as Dent fumbled the surprise onside kick, game was actually pretty good up until that point. Whatever!

Yeah, instead of going up 13-10, the TD on that play put me up 33-10. Fucking magical

Ursa has to be the most brain dead simple hero for making people rage quit. Two straight games as him I've had the game end 25 minutes in because the other team gave up.

That throwing stick stunt of yours has boomeranged on us.

I've always thought awareness maybe affects accuracy under pressure, but who knows.
 
wtf, Jacksonville's schedule for the first three weeks is Texans-Colts-Texans

I guess that's a way to get them division games outta the way early
 
me and Wellie have the last game listed. does that mean it's gonna be a monday-night-esque game in the game?

oh gee golly a fake primetime game

New Ipad a flop? Probably not, but reports are saying there aren't a ton of lines this year for people waiting to pick it up!

That ending to ME3

God damnit.....

This is why I'm sticking to multi right now. I've put too much time into the story to have it all fall apart at the end.

You're actually the first game listed on the real site, I guess LM does them in reverse order. "Sunday, Sep 23, 2012 1:00 PM" even though we're in the 2014 season.

Oh wow, another basic error on the website? Shocking.

You should make a BOMBA thread

Haha, I don't care that much about it to do so! The fact that it isn't selling out is nice because I still might pick one up after work! Have a shot now!

I really want a haptic touch device but who knows how long this will take.

The original droid had haptic feedback functionality. Made typing nice.

I don't really recall the ipads ever truly selling out. I had no problem picking up the first two.

wait, is shifting dline in general problematic or is it more just in four lineman formations?

I don't think most people are that desperate to win...

Did you not see what DCX attempted? And he was a more outstanding member too. There are already issues with the game, now we are going to become a true cheese league.

Of course, mr 38 man roster Super Bowl champ probably doesn't care!

Yeah I'm going back and forth. The ipad is a cool device, but most everything I'd use it for I have something at home I can do things better. Browse on my PC, watch netflix on my plasma, read books on my kindle, or game on various devices! I think I might take that 500-600 dollars and put it towards my own personal Steambox! I've been wanting to build a home theater pc for awhile now, and with ivy bridge coming and new, better, more efficient and powerful nvidia cards , ram being dirt cheap, hard drive prices coming back down the time is to strike! Any recommendations on a case? I don't want to have it look like a regular tower if I'm putting it in my entertainment stand!

Maximum PC did a feature a few months back on HTPC's that had a number of case options in it, I'd take a look at that. Based on what I know of your life (working at dominoes, living in moms basement, masturbating to Jim McMahon pictures) I'd say a HTPC is a much better idea.

I use my ipad almost exclusively for work. I love it as a note-taking device. It's the only reason I am considering the ipad 3, the increased resolution should be awesome for handwriting apps.

I like this. I might have to restructure my linebacking core next season, check out who is hot!

Don't forget about our week 6 match up either! Brooks vs Cole, the battle everyone has been waiting for will finally be settled on the field!
