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

[quote name='Ultimate Matt X']I don't think head to head or divisional record matters for Madden playoff tie breakers. I think it is just in alphabetical order. I know it was in past years and that is still how it shows up in the standings now.[/QUOTE]


Well that sucks
 
Packers - 31
Bears - 21

This game wasn't even close. I couldn't stop the vaunted Packers passing game at all. Nothing I did today was the way I wanted it to happen, but even if I had played a little bit better, I don't think it would have mattered. Pitfall had me (again) today and could have scored more if he wanted to.

I had a few decent runs with Forte at least, until my running game became null and void, playing catch up. I still enjoyed the game, as I used the second half to run plays and routes I hadn't really used before. I found one I liked and a few I didn't, but at least I have a little bit more knowledge of my playbook overall coming out of a loss.

It looks like I will have to play my starters in ATL the last week of the season to try to get that 1st round bye. I was hoping to give them a week off to ensure no injuries.

GG Pitfall, as always. I *think* I am 1-3 against you so far. Here is to hoping I don't get you in the playoffs. :D

I don't think that's true anymore. The guys in the other league do some ridiculous statistical analysis, figuring up common games, strength of schedule, etc. to determine playoff spots. And as far as I know, they've been mostly right.

Yeah, gg. Thanks for subbing. I was worried after you stomped all over me on your first drive. There were a couple lucky leaping catches I had on throws I probably shouldn't have made, and there was also the deflected pass that Grant caught that probably should've fell to the ground.

Aaron Rodgers went 14-20 for 311 yds and 4 TDs (all to different receivers).

It's always fun playing you because it's usually a good matchup and I feel like I actually earn a win.

Nah, I didn't think there was anything lucky - you have talented WRs, a great QB and you know how to use them. You are right on the Grant one, but it happens and it definitely had no outcome on the game overall.

You were the better player. I need to think about how to handle all of those weapons if we do meet up again.
 
[quote name='KasterDB']Okay, I probably won't be on until 10 or so tomorrow, haha.[/QUOTE]

hey I ended up getting the game tonight so I could play after ten if you wanted to.

Also for anyone else, if there are any people who have more than 1 secondary team or any cpu teams I could pick up another team. I have the Bills so I would need an NFC team. Thanks.
 
[quote name='Ultimate Matt X']About to play the Ravens. Come on Rams and Cardinals, give me some help too.[/QUOTE]


The Cardinals will get simmed. Not much I can do for ya buddy.
 
Well, I wasn't busy and decided to put together a playoff picture. (Obviously alot could change)

AFC
East: Jets (#1)
West: Chiefs (#2)
North: Steelers (Still up in the air)
South: Jags (Titans next year lol)
Wild: Broncos
Wild: Patriots

NFC
East: Cowboys
North: Packers
South: Falcons (#1)
West: Rams (#2)
Wild: Lions
Wild: Buccaneers

Hope this helps! Also, Titans vs Jags at 8pEST.

I forgot, I would like to throw my hat in the ring, if a secondary team makes the playoffs. I have been pretty active all year and would love to participate.

Once again, I'm supposed to play Tanabeo and he has not reached out at all for Bucs vs. Panthers. I'm debating PMing him but I'd prefer for him to do so, so he could prove he has more than a minute interest in the league.

Dark Rider, if I make the playoffs with Tampa and Denver, I'd be glad to let you have the Bucs. You're right, you've definitely earned it.
 
The Bucs/Panthers game has a big impact on the Wild Card race in the NFC. It'd be nice to see it get played.

Maybe we should hand the Panthers over to Billy. He's done a good job of getting his games played so far, even better than some who've been here a lot longer.
 
Thanks for the playoff picture Rider. The #2 spot is definately still up in the air if Denver wins this week. (has that been played yet?)

Thanks for the offer. I will definitely take you up on your offer if they make the playoffs. (This also reminded me that the Bucs are ahead of the Panthers, so I will change that.)
 
As the Patriots owner.. I didn't think I had a shot at the play offs after my last loss. I thought I'd have to win out. I am not doing bad in my last 5 games going 4-1.

It'll be tonight, around 10 or so.
 
Thanks DR for putting that together. A lot could definitely change..if I lose my last game and the Rams & Packers win, I would go from a #1 seed to a #3.

The Jets in the AFC are also up for grabs, assuming they don't fall out of the playoff picture. DR definitely would be a great pick to grab one of these teams. IMO, I would also recommend Doc and G33. They both have been here from the beginning and have never had issues getting their games played.

Haha THE TEXANS are taking the south next year! Lol my draft is gonna be redonk!
 
Jags beat the Titans 24-7, officially putting the nails in the coffins of Houston and Tennessee's playoff hopes. GG, Dark Rider. You're definitely better than your record. You'd be a lot more dangerous if you had a better QB.

By my count, just on records alone, the only teams officially eliminated from playoff contention are Miami, Houston, Tennessee, Oakland, New York Giants, Chicago, and Seattle. That's without getting into all the tiebreakers. So if you've still got a shot at finishing at .500 or better, then you're basically still in the running for a playoff spot.

Thanks, it was a fun game. I enjoy playing with someone who plays solid, clean football.

I hate the Titans sometimes. It seemed like my Defense couldn't get much worse. I hate when you call the right play, but your D fails to carry it out and screws you.
The only shinning light in this game was Chris Johnson's performance with 105yrds, 1TD rushing and 72yrds rec.

But good game. I am looking forward to the draft when I can build with a low draft pick.
 
[quote name='KasterDB']Also, Panthers vs. Bucs getting underway for an inside track towards a wild card spot.[/QUOTE]

Awesome. There's only 3 games left to be played after this one. Depending on what happens tomorrow, we may be able to advance earlier than planned.
 
Panthers win 16-10

MVP is Cam he had -6 yards passing but he had 127 Rushing 1 on a 40 yard run for the TD that gave the panthers a TD lead with 30 sec left then josh Freeman threw a pick to close out the game.

GG Kaster your pass D is insane

I spent the game calling QB Spy plays that were also good pass defense plays haha. You did a great job evading those spies with Newton though.
 
Had a good game with the Ravens last night and managed to pull out the win. Just need the Steelers to lose this week and I need to win next week against them. Bengals and Ravens play next week, I'm not sure what is better for me there. I think the Bengals winning is better if they lose this week, if they win I'm not sure. I think if the Bengals win out they win the division.
 
[quote name='Blade3D']Lions still could take the North with a win over the Packers in Week 17.[/QUOTE]

Depending on how the Falcons and Rams do, I may end up resting some of my starters. Watch out for the deadly combo of Matt Flynn to James Jones!

lol, not sure how Flynn is in our league, depending on what roster update we ended up playing off of..but in real life, that is still a pretty decent combo. ;)
 
[quote name='KasterDB']Broncos defeat Bills to set up winner take all matchup with Kansas City next week![/QUOTE]


Yeaaaa buddy, but with the Pats losing and you beating the Bills I believe both of us our set for the Wild Card (my math has been wrong in the past). Just have to fight it out for that No. 2 seed (or #1 based on what the Jets do) and NFC West Champion.

Well, even if we are both locked in to the postseason, it'll still be important for who gets that first round bye, haha

Alright, here are the games that have not been played.

Jets vs Giants (Should be a sim)
Bengals vs Cardinals (Also a sim)
Vikings vs Redskins (Once again a sim)
Rams vs Steelers (Supposedly going to be played today?)
Eagles vs Cowboys (DVO? Have you gone missing again?)
49ers vs Seahawks (damailman just asked who he is playing so I am assuming no progress has been made)

Don't worry. I don't think anyone is mad at you, just confused. It does raise the question. Where is N3XTLVL?

Not sure. But Cowboys vs Eagles is primary vs primary. Both he and DVO should be reaching out to each other. No excuses there.
