Madden 10 "The Replacements" The Ingural Season, completed!

BigAT and Xxxplosive1 what is going on? Not to be rude but I did say this evening we were advancing, why would you ask to play tomorrow; it wasn't like I announced this today. I have no problem waiting if you have a time certain setup but at least let me know.
 
I was gone essentially the entire weekend watching football at my friend's place, so we haven't had much of a chance to get it in. XXXplosive, I'll be around all of today/tonight so if you have a time that's good for you, let me know.
 
I've already simmed the game as I mentioned I would, since I didn't hear that the game was setup to be played.

We've advanced to week 16, schedule to be posted shortly.

Just got home, my girl is watching some show but if you are around for the next 30 or 40 min I can get on.
 
Good game Shin.

Pats defeat Jags 41 - 7

The Pats brutal defense showed up once again as they held the Jags to under 100 Total offense. Aaron Rodgers went 7 for 16 for 87 yards and threw 4 picks on the day. The Jags rushing game didnt fair so well either as Brandon Jacobs was held to just 8 yards on 7 attempts. The Jags only score game from a Steven Jackson fumble that was picked up and ran back by LE Osi.

Besides the fumble Running Back Steven Jackson so once again that he is the leagues MVP add another 143 yards and 2 TDs to is impressive total on the season. Jackson has 1 more game to break the two thousand yard mark as he sits at 1928 yards and 32 TDs. Marc Bulger also added two more touchdowns to his totals bringing up to 32 for the year as well as throwing for 3358 yards in the Pats high octane offense.



Key Stats
Marc Bulger 111.9 Passer Ratings 174 yards 2 TD 1 INT
Aaron Rodgers 21.6 Passer Rating 87 Yards 4 INT

Steven Jackson 143 yards 2 TD
Brandon Jacobs 8 Yards
 
Soodmeg wins 41-7. His second INT changed the momentum of the game. His DB was burned by my WR, was not looking at the QB or the ball, but somehow knows the ball is above him and makes an outstanding leap of faith for it.

Then afterwards I let Soodmeg win. He began to showboat by messaging me in-game. Also, he tried to run up the score after I was running out the clock whenever I had the ball in the 4th.
Seriously.
This comment will piss him off. This is a lie. Nobody tell him.
 
Ha.

Actually that 2nd INT was a user INT thats why it looked like that. I thought you were going to go to your TE but for some reason by guy wouldnt strafe he just turned and ran behind your TE I press Y thinking I could at least I can get that in air tackle animation because I thought I was burnt to a crisp.

That fumble you got was crazy...I wish I could have replayed it because it really seemed like Jackson just threw the ball at Osi. Crazy.
 
[quote name='BigAT']CommanderZero, any chance you'll be on tonight to get our game in?[/QUOTE]

If you can do it tomorrow that would be a little better for me but if you have a commitment we can go tonight at 10.

I saw you spin/juke/truck stick early, so I just pressed the strip button with Wright and it popped out.

Then I got a little crazy. My play calling didn't make any sense. gg though.

how about tonight? Lets make it for 8pm?
 
I was about to say that I wasn't sure if a earlier time would work (depends in my dad makes me hit town today), but even IF I do, I should be back by then.
 
CommanderZero, I'm logging on now for a bit, hopefully you're around so we can get our game in.

I just got home from work if you want to go now we can.
 
There's only two games left to be played, SoulReaver and XXXplosive. SoulReaver said his game could be simmed. XXXplosive is out of the NFC playoff picture, so maybe he doesn't care if his game is simmed. I guess we should wait and see what he says.
 
Since Xxxplosive1 is out of the playoff picture I'm going to sim it shortly unless he is around and posts otherwise.
 
We've advanced to week 17, the wildcard round will begin Friday morning or sooner.

Week 17 games:
anthem85 vs CPU
shinryuu vs CPU
Commander0zero vs CPU
Static Puff vs CPU
Xxxplosive1 vs CPU
Soodmeg vs CPU
BigAT vs CPU
JStryke vs CPU

pitfallharry219 vs SoulReaver
Ivanhood vs ubernes
 
Can you play our game tonight, ubernes? I should be available pretty much any time after 9:00 EST.

Also, to everyone, what are your thoughts on giving key players a week off before the playoffs? My next game can't change my playoff seeding at all, and I would hate to have Westbrook or Witten out for the playoffs because they got hurt in a game that didn't matter.
 
Uhhh, your roster is your business. You can play who ever you want at anytime, you just cant but them in at position they dont play.

Feel free to sit everyone on your team if you want.

9 EST tonight is fine. See you then.
 
GG BigAT it was a lot closer than the last time we met. Watch out for the Cardinals ball hawking corners and good pressure up front and an offense that can sustain long drives. A definite playoff team to watch!
 
Are we gonna vote on awards? MVP, Rookie, etc etc?

I think it would be more fun for us as the users to vote for who should get the awards. Hell I dont even know if online franchises have awards in them.
 
Yeah EA really screwed up the online franchise. I actually believe this was withheld on purpose so they could sell this as a "NEW" Feature for Madden 2011. I mean who doesn't want year end awards, pro Bowl selections and full league stat tracking. everyone who plays Madden is a stat whore for crying out loud!

Anyway I'm looking forward to the re-draft. Reason being you look at your team and some players you will try to draft again becuase you fell in love with them and some you wouldn't touch with a ten foot poll. It's going to be interesting also with greater participation too. I do have a question are we going to be using the newest roster and ratings? Are there even new ones? As we know some players have emerged and probably need to be rated higher.
 
Pats Close Season With Win Over Texans.

As the regular season closes the Pats looked as regular as a super star team could. Dominating defense and high scores became the norm over the season and the Pats didnt let up even though it was a meaningless game for them.

Although the Pats rested most of the starters in the 2nd half they still had time to put up big numbers in a 59-35 win as MVP canidate Steven Jackson added 168 yards and 3 TDs to his ridiculous season. Jackson has a league leading 2096 yards and 35 TDs. Marc Bulger kept his offensive player of the year talks alive by ending the season with 3686 passing yards 35 TD and 20 INT along with 4 rushing TDs.

That Pats are the high scoring team in the league ending the season at 633 points for and 243 points against.

On the other side of the ball the, "2-Dub" (Strong Safety Adrian Wilson and DB Josh Wilson) proved they are the best DB combo in the league as Adrian added 2 more INT (both pick sixes) to is total as Josh added 1. Adrian Wilson leads the team with 52 tackles, 15 INT, 17 deflections, 5 forced fumbles and 4 TDs. Josh Wilson has 37 tackles, 13 INT, 1 Forced Fumble and 6 TDS.

Yeah, it was a very fun and competitive game. I definitely need to try to keep Asante Samuel in the next draft, he's the man.

I was looking at the standings in game, somehow the Seahawks clinched a playoff spot coming into this week and I didn't, even though we have the same record and I won both head-to-head's. Confusing. I won my week 17 game though so it doesn't really matter.
 
I know it was said to wait until the playoffs, but I just want to let it be known I'm down for the next season, and if the Raiders are aken, I'd like the 49ers or Chargers, please.

Thanks.
 
[quote name='BigAT']I'm almost positive online franchises don't have any sort of year end awards. Well done EA.[/QUOTE]

the only tracking it does at the end is Superbowl history for the franchise... better than nothing I guess.
 
NCAA has had complete end of season awards as well as All American teams in it's Online Dynasty for the last two years, it's completely unacceptable that the Madden team failed to implement such a simple feature.

I agree with you but its true.. there running out of things to do so they screw up the first new feature jst to profect it the following year so everyone gos OOOOHHH WOW... same thing apple does. they hold off on features on there products so it builds a following to make people go wow they did it right!
 
Damn, yall are too fast. I have a ton of homework on Monday and Tuesdays so i was gonna play tonight since you said you were simming Wednsday. I guess i'll just play the week 17 game then.
 
Probably gonna hit town tomorrow, so planning on playing my game that night sometime. If you decide to advance though before I get the chance, no big deal. I'm out of the playoff picture anyways. :razz:

Apparently, tomorrow has already come without my noticing. Meh. You know what I mean I'm sure. ;)
 
gg Ivan. it was a bit boring, but sort of amusing too. I had way too many injury scares (Brown, Leftwich) and Roy Williams is out for 11 weeks now. My back up isn't that terrible, but not really what I was looking forward to going into the playoffs.

I was going to bench my starters after I saw you did, but I wasn't sure if I needed the W or not.

Haha, yeah, I think Chris Simms was happy to see a bit of playing time, even though he didn't do anything good with it. My backup running game is even worse than my backup passing game, so I figured I might as well air it out.
 
Seattle Seahawks Clinch Playoff Birth
In a 24-0 win over the Titans backups, the Seahawks won their 7th game in a row heading into the playoffs as a Wild Card. The Arizona Cardinals held onto and won the NFC West, thanks to in part by defeating Seattle in both games this season. Seattle looks to matchup with the Packers in the first round.

The team will be without star safety Roy Williams, who broke his collarbone on a tackle in yesterday's game. He's expected to be sidelined for 11 weeks and will miss the entirety of the playoffs. He led the team in forced fumbles. Sabby Piscitelli will be asked to step up in his role as the new starter. The team also signed safety Jamar Adams as a precaution.

The Seahawks best defensive player, Darnell Dockett, went on a tear to end the season. Some analysts claimed he had a shot at surpassing Michael Strahan's season sacks record of 22.5, but ended up with a league-leading 19. He looks to anchor a strong front seven as the playoffs begin. The question is now whether or not a weak and now weakened secondary can last the rigors of the NFL playoffs.

I dont know what planet you are from but on Earth Roy Williams is a fucking horrid player both in real life and video game form.
 
in the world where he's my best rated safety (he's, what, in the high 70s?) and like I said in there leads my team and is among the top in the league is FF. so, yeah.
 
Just played my game. I didn't really have a good first quarter, and seeing how my season has been awful anyways, I decided to say fuck it and see what records I might be able to break on purpose. 9 interceptions by Flacco I believe gives him the single game record, but he ended up being two short from tying, three from passing the single season record. Plus, I think it gives him the most for our league, so the game wasn't a complete waste. :razz:
