PS3 Madden '11 Online Franchise Interest Thread
- Thread starter thomasbk
- Start date
I just sent everyone a PM just in case there are peoples that dont check this thread and dont know that we already started.
I just try no to run into the defenders head on! unless its like a small corner or safety and I got a big back or TE. I've never used R1 to cover the ball and rarely fumble. But maybe im just lucky

Hey send me an invite please. Wasn't aware we'd started.

Looking through my videos I found I actually did upload it. Probably should've changed to a better angle though.
This is McBean's INT return for a TD with no time left in OT.
(And yes I'm using the ugly throwback uniforms)

How do I do this?
At the end of the game under game recap there's an option to replay different plays. You can then save them to your media. Back in the main menu there will be an option for uploading the videos under the manage media. That'll auto upload them to your ea profile which you'll be able to view on the ea sports website.
RyanDG, your games just always come down to the last second. That must be nerve-wracking.
Any tips for facing the Seahawks, with Matt Hasselbeck's league leading passing totals? :lol
It sucks that I don't play any of you until week 5, but from then on I play a real person nearly every week. Should be fun.

Its only hard on the nerves because this is the first Madden I've played in years. I tell you what, it used to be easier than this.
As for facing the Seahawks - stop Tate. The guy was a hoss all game long and even Champ "The Greatest Cornerback that Ever Was" had problems stopping him. In fact, champ was the one who got burned for the final touchdown in a completely unrealistic fashion. He sort of just circled tate while the ball sort of floated to him.
With that said, Tim Tebow performed admirably after 2 early interceptions. He finished with 17/25 with 217 yards passing (3tds, 2 ints) with 54 yards rushing and another score. This loss may be just a hiccup in the future hall of famers illustrious early career.
Just finished my second game Manning Bowl II. I won 41-28 due to some nice receptions and a fumble recover for a touchdown on a kickoff. I had a nice screen pass to Reggie Wayne for an 80 yard TD which sadly I couldn't get a good video of because it only shoed him after he caught the ball and didn't show the blocking. I got Manning back to the top of the Passing leader boards so far this season he is 7 TD, 0 INT, and 650 yards.
I might be willing to trade Ryan Mathews. Not really sure though, and it depends on how many seasons we're going to play.
Either way, I'm willing to look at trade offers. I guess it wouldn't make sense in a sim league though, so I'll leave that up to the commish.
You can make an offer for Sproles if you want in that case, but I'll probably turn it down.

Trades are fine! Just dont sign free agents just to trade them to the computer for a 1st round pick, like I'm sure many of you cheating bastards do in offline franchise!I do that
Never thought of that in offline. Maybe I need to reevaluate my offline dynasty.
In recent maddens its been a little tougher to trick the computer, but you could still get a few first round pics for practically nothing. I imagine they haven't changed anything in this years game.
Just as a reminder, we'll try do advance on saturday around midnight or sunday morning unless someone really needs an extension. So try to get your games on by then!

Hey guys, we were going to advance to week 3 on saturday/sunday, but my internet connection wasn't working very well all weekend so I dont know if everyone has played their game or not.
I was playing my game on friday against the packers guy, and got disconnected after the kickoff and then at the end of the third quarter and havent been able to reschedule the game so I might have to just sim it.
I'll check how everything is going in a few hours when I get home from work and if everyone has played except for me, then I'll sim my game and advance the week.
There hasn't been any activity here for a few days, so I hope not everyone has dropped out and you're just waiting for the week to advance!

The Tim Tebow train is going to get derailed (hopefully). I will have to check out his stats before hand so I know how worried I need to be about QB scrambles but I am looking forward to out game tonight.RyanDG said:Just waiting for the week to go. I'm looking forward to get the Tim Tebow rookie train flowing against a live opponent this week. Should be interesting.
Yeppers. We had 3 restarts. It seems like it was going to be a good game too. One restart was with a 3-0 score, second one was a 7-7, and the last one was a 7-3 score. Hopefully tomorrow works out whatever kinks we were having.
But now you know my secret weapon. Broncos heavy shotgun formation.

I think we were going to have a good game but we just couldn't get it going. I need to run the ball more and stop passing so much.RyanDG said:Yeppers. We had 3 restarts.

There is a new patch, so I thought it might fix something, but I still couldnt finish my game with nickp.
If this connection problems dont get resolved soon there's really no reason to continue the franchise since we cant play each other :S
If you decide to bail out of the franchise, I dont blame you I'll keep it going as long as there are atleast a couple of you still playing, and maybe we get an EA miracle and they fix this
I was going to advance the week, but it kept kicking me out of the ea servers, so Ill do it tomorrow when I get home early evening.

Sorry man,
I havent been able to play because ive been so busy with work and everything. Im gonn have to drop out cuz I just dont really have time right now to play. Sorry guys, I thought i would have more time to play.
Wow, I almost gave this game away.
The Cardinals are a pretty tough team to play, I was lucky to have them run 9 yard routes on 3rd and 10 a couple times. Derek Anderson handles pressure well and is accurate (LOL).
I threw two early interceptions, one returned for a TD, and lost a sack-fumble for a TD. I also couldn't stop Beanie Wells all game, including with under two minutes left in the 4th to give them the lead. He bounced off my defenders like pinballs.
They couldn't stop me though, all hail your league leading receiver (for now), Antonio Gates!
Here we go, week 5, PistolPete, where you at? It's going down! I hope we don't have these connection issues..

Antonio Gates won't be leading the league for long, I don't think. I really haven't looked at my receiver stats but I would guess Dallas Clark is doing good. I really hope they fixed the connection issues because being able to play other people is a lot more enjoyable.
If thats your way of asking if you can join and that you want to play as the 49ers, then yes you can join and they are available!
We are in week 4 and will be moving to week 5 soon I hope.
We only have like 7 people still playing and we've been having a lot of problems playing the human vs human games!
So if you want to join here it is:
Franchise name: NeoGAF
password: billieve

Yeah sorry!
On tuesday 3 (out of like 6) of our active members hadn't played their game so I didnt advance it.
I'll advance it tonight even if they haven't played!
So if you read this, Patriots, Raiders, Redskins, I hope you are still alive and have played your week 5 game!
I've never been disconnected in online ranked matches! but franchise must use different servers that are screwed up!

Good game Joey. After that first quarter, I figured you would rout me :lol

I was just thinking to myself, this is too good to be true. And then it was. Lesson learned on the kickoff return, not worth the risk/reward. Also, my dumb interception...
I'm glad we finished our game on the first try, maybe everyone else will have better luck now?
Too bad there's only 8 of us :lol
Oh, and it's early, but I'm thinking AFC West champ gets Homefield advantage, unless W1SSY goes 16-0.
FYI: pistolpete will kill you with McFadden
