CAGLS: Madden 13 Gentlemen's League - We Finished! Thanks for Playing!

Yeah, it's the Eagles who'll face Seattle.

Superstar, not gonna lie, you've had my number since madden 12 and you slaughtered me earlier this season, I'm concerned, haha.
 
[quote name='slofton']This was an amazing game. Granted im not to happy that a future HOFer dropped a end zone pass, but man oh man. I didn't even think I was going to get that chance except for a incomplete with one second left on the 3.[/QUOTE]

Who dropped it? Was it Vernon? Wayne? I was too busy staring wide-eyed at my lucky break...
 
[quote name='Matt Young']I am not 100% sure that this won't cause Madden fatigue, but it has been recommended to me that I join this league. I had fun in my season here for Madden 12. Nate, can you please add me to the wait list?[/QUOTE]

Glad to see I convinced you! There will be four teams available in the offseason.

The Dolphins (Although, I think the guy on the Wait list wanted them)
Chargers (Basically Unchanged)
Giants (Arian Foster, no Eli)
Rams (No idea, no Amendola for sure though. He plays for me)
 
[quote name='Lexxon']I was just sitting there watching that final drive...TRYING to believe it wouldn't happen. IT'S A PICK! ...no he dropped it. A PICK! ...no, dropped again. OH look, gave up 25 yards...

I thought the hurryup with :09 or so would end it, but no, got a play off. Ball swatted, game over, right? No, :01 left. Throws a pass on the last play of the game...CAUGHT! .....DROPPED! It was a late drop on a mediocre tackle.

Wow.

Skins, you were a madden RNG away from (maybe possibly sorta madden tiebreaker) being in the playoffs.

Seahawks offense was on fire for most of this game, which, as most people have played me can agree, is not how it usually is. But the falcons played without turnovers, so we actually had to score some legit points.

Boldin was on fire today, catching everything in his path. Some breakaway pass plays and decent enough running attack put the seahawks in the endzone on their first four drives. Punted on my last offensive drive (ran on 3rd and 11--those conservative seahawks!) and gave the Falcons less than a minute to put their drive together from the 20.

Almost had the spoiler, slofton. And I may have murdered you in your sleep. (Hypothetically. Please, don't call the cops on me.)

Seahawks go into the playoffs with a lucky win. Won't even speculate who I'm facing until Madden figures out the tiebreakers with the 5 seed (really should be the vikes regardless of who wins that game) and the 3 seed.[/QUOTE]

This is my first game with no TO's. Man, I so thought Julio Jones had that pass. Argh. And holy hell I couldnt stop Bolden to save my life. I doubled and dropped a linemen in zone on the side he was on. Dude was a beast today.

When I got the punt on my own 20 with 50 seconds left, I figured id just get to crazy with things and go 3 and out. Never thought i'd drive to the endzone. I was really happy with my Fearsome Foursome of Julio Jones/Roddy White/Reggie Wayne/Vernon Davis. Heck, even Taiwan Jones had a running TD.

Btw, im not sure if you noticed but early in the game (Your 1st TD?) there was a tackle at the 1 which should have cause our 2 players to be dead or paralyzed. It was crazy.

Sure thing, adding you to the OP.

Also, to everyone else, we have advanced to Rd 1 of the playoffs. I'm going to put a deadline on this of 3/10. That's technically a little under 4 days, but hopefully it's good enough.

One other thing I'm curious about...how many teams made the playoffs this season who didn't make it last season? Off the top of my head, I know the Bengals and Texans are new. I know graduating two owners contributed to that some...but it's nice to see different people making the playoffs.
 
Yep, Madden screwed up the tiebreakers. I have to play Texans in Houston.


Looks like Pro Bowl has been decided and 10k XP given out to Pro Bowlers. Haven't received any XP for season awards yet.
 
Bengals are pumped for the playoffs

[quote name='Blade3D']ATL vs SEA (Falcons v. Seahawks currently set for 7PM on the 7th (deadline date))
MIN vs CHI (To be simmed)
BAL vs JAX (I am playing Jacksonville at 7 PM EST)


MIA vs DAL (DAL can play CPU)
STL vs CLE (CLE can play CPU)

So any update on these 2?[/QUOTE]

You can sim the DAL game. I can't play tonight and I don't want to hold up the league. The game doesn't have playoff implications either.

League has advanced.
 
In case anyone is wondering, it looks like contracts are screwed up again. I went to look at my "salaries" page, and noticed that all of a sudden, a bunch of guys (Jake Locker, Nate Washington, etc)...whose contracts shouldn't be expiring are listed as "1 year remaining"...along with guys whose contracts ARE actually expiring. Sooooo...yeah, don't bother looking at that until we're done with the playoffs. It'll just confuse/anger you, haha.

Ya I think it ends up counting some players who have next year left too.

49ers send 12 players to the Pro Bowl, including my rookie center. I think Coby Fleener makes it for another straight year as well as all of my offensive line excluding the rookie center.
 
Once again, the Bucs entire roster is available for trade, including Ray Rice. Looking for a top WR or CB, as well as FS, LB, and DT.

I'm also interested in picks and willing to deal mine, I have a 1st and 2 3rd's.

On the flipside, this is the first season since we started this league that I haven't made the playoffs. I think I was the only OG that had that streak going. Feels bad, man.

I think I have? I can't remember if I missed out in one of the M12 seasons
 
this is my first time making the playoffs in either league im excited wish i didnt have to play the jets though he beat me last time and i felt like even though the game was close he had my number that game

Hey all, just wanted to stop in and say hey. The Giants will probably be alright with someone else, I'm terrible at Madden. But they have some good players (Foster, Nicks, Pierre-Paul) along with some good rookies (My first-rounder was 87 overall). Plus, I'd imagine they'll have a top 5 pick.

Anyway, good luck to all!

My playoff game is a rematch also. Texans and I played early in the season and was a close game down to the last couple minutes until Ray Rice fumbled and Lardarius Webb blew his coverage on Andre Johnson to allow a late score. Hopefully this time it goes differently for me.
 
[quote name='slofton']Texans over the Ravens
Saints over the Vikings
Bengals over the Jets
Seahawks over the Eagles[/QUOTE]

I am iffy if the Texans will be able to pull of the win again with Andre Johnson out this time, but he is my IRL friend so I gave him the win lol.
 
lol to be honest all the playoff teams are so closely matched im not sure who is going to win these games.
i will kindly keep my self out of the guessing game on this one.

good luck to everyone
 
Vikings win 38-9 thanks to a great performance by Peterson, the D, and Schaub (one INT notwithstanding). gg Superstar.

Minnesota is very proud of its season and is totally okay with making it to the divisional round which will probably be as far as I make it.

Edit: No love for Mandy Voluptuous in the COTY voting? Ouch. 10-6 in a competitive division is pretty impressive. I guess I should've played the CPU Bears after all, lol.
 
Glad to see I have some support ;)

Just to answer the question brought up earlier, I made the playoffs this season after being 7-9 I want to say last season. I did make the playoffs in 'league 2' during Madden 11 with my Giants, I believe (and was one and done). I don't think I ever made it with my Bills in League 1. Didn't play Madden 12 at all.

GG sir!

I had to leave early. My boss called me and asked me to drive to a friends house down the road because he was turning of breakers and he lost his phone connection. I had to go see if he was okay haha. So thats why my wife played the last 2 minutes.

I'm happy i made the playoffs as well, especially since i went 5-11 last year i believe. I'm looking forward to the game with the seahawks again, we had a good battle early in the year

Good game man. I think all of Cromartie's INT's were 1-handed...pretty nuts. You definitely had me nervous with that AJ Green TD with a minute and a half left. I still can't believe Justin Tucker took the Kicker Pro Bowl spot. Friggin Buehler won the best Kicker award. Also, check your PM's for trades haha

[quote name='pitfallharry219']Hey, Jets. Stop winning. You're killing the value of one of my 1st round picks.[/QUOTE]

lol.. Vikings need to stop as well. He's ruining my 1st and 3rd rounders!


I believe I play my biggest rival next, the Bills.. should be a good one
 
[quote name='scrub0bk']Eagles/Seahawks will hopefully go down tonight, if not tomorrow early afternoon is likely. Waiting for a response from SEA[/QUOTE]

Sorry, just responded, been sleeping in and doing snow cleanup. I'm home all day tomorrow and most of the morning and early-mid afternoon tomorrow so I'm sure we can get the game in soon.
