CAG League Sports: Madden 12 "JV League" - We Finished 3 Seasons! Thanks Everybody!!!

[quote name='DVO21']damn it cowboys have a bye week and raiders play a secondary. hey n8 since pits doing the falcons game would u mind if i went ahead a played the raiders game agianst someone. if not its cool i knowu have a rule about pla un-needed secondary games but thought i would ask[/QUOTE]

It might be more helpful if you subbed for Doc's secondary, the Bears, against the Chiefs. I know Docs's leaving soon, so I don't know if he'll have time to play his primary and secondary games.

I'd really rather you not. It would be an unnecessary move with the only possible outcome being screwing with the standings. If there's a game against a primary team that needs a sub, that's fine, but I'd prefer the secondary vs secondary games to have random outcomes.

EDIT - Yeah, playing for the Bears would be fine if doc doesn't have time/doesn't mind.
 
sounds like a plan well if anyone doesnt want to play there secondary game and is cool with me subbing hit me with a pm. i wouldnt mind playing against the chiefs staticz and are 1-1 agianst eachother wouldnt mind trying to go 2-1 on his ass with some forte action
 
Texans - 24
Colts - 21

In a HUGE upset the Texans stun the Colts in Indy on what appeared to be a controversial Madden programming play. Texans punted the ball high and was marked to land within the 5. Texans player get in position to stop the ball from bouncing in the endzone and for some unknown reason a Colts player was still pursuing the Texans player and the ball hits him in the back allowing the Texans to jump on it. Texans ball at the 3 as a result. Pretty cheap but I'll take it.

Schaub - 10/18 at 146 yards. No TD and an INT.
Foster- 29 touches for 174 and 3 TD's.

Manning - 6/17 at 172 yards. 1 TD AND 1 INT.
Addai - 17 touches for 115 yards and 2 TD's

GG blade and I feel ya man! That one play ended up being the game breaker for ya. After having one of the worst records last season I'll take what I can get. Lol

I got screwed out of this one...

The guy was controlled by the AI, goes and blocks the guy that Doc has waiting. This idiot is then in the perfect position to get hit in the back with the ball. I am pretty upset about that game considering I led the entire game until the last few minutes. Your drive with like 2:30 to go was good considering that put you over me and left me with like :45, but shouldn't have even mattered. We should have went into the second half 14-3.

A very similar thing happened between us in the Saints/Packers game from Week 1 of the first season.

Is the league manager site broken again? I see the schedule has been advanced, but not the stats or standings.

No, I just hadn't finished updating. I went to bed right after I advanced the league last night.
 
Anyone want to volunteer to sub for the Redskins tonight for my Giants Vs. Redskins game?

I can play at 8pm EST at the earliest.

It blows, my schedule is full of secondary teams and with Tanabeo leaving it looks like I'll be playing subs for a majority of the season.

Edit: Sorry I meant DVO above, my bad.

Greg Jennings got robbed! 7 catches for 251 and 3 TDs. And it's not like it was all just long bombs from Rodgers. He had a 99-yarder and a 71-yarder that both came off approximately 5 yard slant routes, so he had to do a majority of the work. Where do I file an official complaint? :argue:

A little ways back, he's getting deployed by the military I believe, will be gone come March 14th? Or something like that.

Still looking for a sub for the Redskins in my Giants vs. Redskins game.

For some reason they dont count rec yards for as much as they count rushing yards i also had 50 rec yards
 
I finally remembered to switch Blade3D to the Colts as his secondary team. That opened up the Dolphins...which I just decided to take as my secondary since I haven't had one since controlling the Bills. That leaves us with the Redskins as the only unclaimed team. Looking forward to going wild with Chad Henne, lol.
 
Can anybody sub for the Redskins tonight or this weekend? I'm completely free from 5:00pm PST tonight until Monday morning.

Are they a step up or down from the Seahawks is the question? 10pm EST tonight works. Thanks again man. And use your own playbook this time!

Yes I plan on using my playbook.

I would rate then below. Yes they have a better D. But their offense is just so bad. The QB is rated at a 71 and the HB barely breaks 80s.
 
ya i leave march 14th for deployment training but will be back from that on march 28th. then deploy to afgansitan in october but hoping that gets canceled or changed to iran invasion that would be alot more fun or even the have the whole plan get canceled to get deployed so i dotn miss madden 13 lol one can only hope
 
billymcdugal where you at? I was like 10 min late, and sent you a message saying I would be. I am not even sure you have been on, xbox live says you haven't been on in 23 hours. I thought we agreed on 6 EST?
 
TRADE ALERT:
Broncos send-
WR Brandon Lloyd, 87 OVR, A POT, age 32

Lions send-
CB Eric Wright, 78 OVR, B POT, age 28
1st round pick

PS: These numbers are from the site. I think Lloyd's OVR is 88 in-game. Dunno about Wright.

Wright is a 79 and he is 27
 
20 - Redskins
7 - Giants

I don't have much to say about this game. Everything seemed to be going wrong for LV. Good game LV!
May I just mention how much I hate the Redskins. What is the deal with their QBs? I had wide open receivers standing still that they would miss.

I personally think a 1st Rounder and a 79 rated player for a 31 year old 89 receiver is to much. Maybe a 3rd or 4th founder can be thrown in on your side Kaster? Might even it up a bit?

Thanks![/QUOTE]

i can sub
 
42 - Panthers
14 - Titans

Well dude, you flat out ran the score up, and I don't appreciate it. It's not like you stopped when I was beat like LV did the other day. I especially didn't like the 40yrd run when you could have run the clock out. BTW, I don't know what is up with your 72OVR RB that was apparently faster then my entire d. From my boat it looks really suspicious when you could be using Williams who is of equal speed.

Any more thoughts? We've only had one person weigh in.

Doc, I can certainly throw in a 3rd or 4th, but my logic was that Lloyd stays at his overall for at least the next two seasons. Wright probably isn't getting much better and Blade's pick will likely be towards the end of the round. But if others weigh in and want me to give up a pick, I can do that.

I keep doing run plays till madden tells me to take a knee that always pops up right under 2 min and at the start of the 4th I always start chewing clock and taking it down to 2 sec on the play clock I think I threw the ball a grand total of 5 time 1 in the 2nd half so I was far from trying to run up the score and what is wrong with what RB I use I like Devine Im a WVU fan same reason I have slaton.

I can understand and I'm not trying to dissuade the trade by any means at all. I just wouldn't do it personally for that. Seems high priced or an older B receiver who does have A potential but at 31 I can of see him going down in OVR rating and to be giving up a 79 CB and a 1st rounder is pretty steep. Also Blade is 1-2 right now so to speculate that his pick will be late in the round is a little to soon.

Again I'm not trying to be the Debbie downer because obviously you guys agreed to terms and posted what you agreed on.

I think a 4th rounder may even it out a bit.

Well...as long as he was running the ball...and not calling his plays immediately, you do still have to stop it. It looks like his last TD came with 3:16 left in the game...so, it's not like he ran it with :10 left where he could have just kneeled or something. And as we've seen many times in this league that the "get the 1st down and hit the ground" approach rarely happens. I understand where you're coming from about getting tore up by 72 OVR players though.

It's basically "How to win at Madden 12" 101. Speed is pretty much everything in this game. I really don't know why he prefers Devine over Williams (I didn't know their speeds were the same). Maybe agility? Juke/spin move? I can't imagine his carry rating is higher. He has Devine on his Tampa Bay team in the other league too. But the fact that you can take shitty players like that and dominate games speaks volumes about how bad the programming is in this game. Blind homers can call it "a great game" all they want, but when any game becomes formulaic in terms of "how to win", it's a bad game.

The only real counter is just having an absolute stud defense and knowing how to stop everything. The only real things I've learned in terms of stopping runs to the outside is blitzing your corners and/or safeties. Yes, it will leave you vulnerable to the pass, but if he's running all over you, making him change his gameplan is the first step anyway. Then once he does, you can readjust, and then it becomes a battle of adjustments and counter adjustments. That's really the best you can hope for.
