It's funny, I'm having the best season that I've ever had with a WR with Brandon Marshall, he's averaging over 100 yards and 2 TDs per game... And he's still like 500 yards behind AJ Green.

We have advanced. We will be advancing monday night.

Anyone else find it weird that in a league with laid back trade rules, that not one trade has been submitted?

I thought we were supposed to take it easy on the CPU. Some of y'all are putting up ridiculous numbers.

i think its becuz everyone for the most part thats in the league is happy with wut they have. i know i wouldnt mind getting better defense cpu bucs put up 34 points i think it was on me. but brees and cruz had a crazy game. i looked at the record book and they both slaughter the records for yards in a game then i saw someone broke bennettes records well like 5 people broke his record 31 catches in a game is now the record not bennetts 22 or 23
and on top of that brees with superstar development only got 4000 xp

I'm definitely in the "some of y'all" category. It is nearly impossible to take it easy on the CPU on All-Pro, the AI at that level just isn't capable of keeping up with even a half-decent human player. I could literally run on every down (which I do anyway in the second half of my CPU games) and still put up 70+ points without breaking a sweat. Especially when the computer is going to throw 6 or 7 picks a game against even the most vanilla defenses, and achieve maybe 2 or 3 total first downs.

If we want to rein in the scores against the CPU in any meaningful way, we'd need to switch to All-Madden. People still shouldn't have any trouble easily defeating the CPU at that difficulty, but at least the AI at that level is capable of sustaining an offensive drive.

The only reason I'm hesitant on doing that is because switching to all Madden doesn't make the game harder in a fair way. It just leads to more drop passes and more broken tackles. It doesn't actually affect awareness or play calling, which is the real problem. Then all those problems with dropped passes and horrible throws would carry over into user vs user games.

I heard through the grapevine there's a new powerhouse in the AFC West...

I find that pretty unlikely having looked at the rosters of those teams.

Still, I'll welcome fewer CPU games.

7 games left

Tanabeo VS CPU
Doc VS CPU
Doo Mane VS CPU
Broadway Row VS L4WII
Mog VS CPU
Cru VS Widow
Doom VS Sprice

what are the times on these games. Advance is tonight.

people are slacking in this league

I think the roster is pretty solid...probably a QB away from being a contender! Mike Wallace/Jeremy Maclin/Jacoby Ford (98, 95, 98 speed) at WR, Ahmad Bradshaw/Jahvid Best at HB, a pretty decent o-line for the most part, a really good d-line (2 90 OVR DTs + Carlos Dunlap and Kamerion Wimbley at DE), Mychal Kendricks/Ray Lewis/David Hawthorne at LB, CB is pretty iffy too...and then Nick Collins/Troy Polamalu at safety.

My QBs are Donovan McNabb, Tavaris Jackson (he's likely to be my starter), and Jimmy Clausen lol. Tavaris was decent in his debut...so we'll see...

The division goes through San Diego. Welcome aboard.

Haven't heard from L4WII, and if he isn't looking to play I'm fine with a sim. This will be my last crazy week and then I'll be moved in and settled. I can pretty easily play tonight though if he is around and wants to get it in.

What time are we shooting for?

So Doom and Spruce are playing their game, so whenever that's done we should be advancing.

we have advanced. im pretty sure we will be advancing Thursday but chetty will post in the morning.

Bye week, nooooo!

lol, Victor Cruz had 706 yards last week.. How is that even possible?

I now feel infinitely less guilty about the beatings I put on the CPU.
