Probably not a kings ransom since he would just be a backup for me. Feel free to take a look at the Chargers roster and PM me a list of players you might be interested in.

I am on record numerous times as saying Mog is the best Madden player I've ever played against. I would just like to say that I have never been so excited to win a game of Madden, and it could not have happened in more dramatic fashion. Full write up once I stop jumping around like an excited schoolgirl, but suffice to say this game featured a historic comeback and OT win by the Chargers.

You were the last guy in the league who I'd never beaten (I've never really come that close except for our first Bears-Panthers game last season) so it feels damned good. It was an amazing game.

RE: Packers/Lions

Sorry in advance for the long message, but since I'll be here through the 12th, I wanted to let people in both leagues know my situation in case it becomes a recurring thing.

We attempted the game twice and it dropped both times. This time, I know it was 100% on my end. I'm at my dad's place in Mississippi and it turns out that the internet here (Cable One) sucks and is prone to outages. I was able to play my game Sunday night without a problem, but it disconnected me altogether later that night while watching stuff on Netflix. My dad's girlfriend called the ISP and got an automated message saying there was a problem with service in this area, but yet I am able to use the net on the computer now.

Each time, itlnstln and I both got a "connection to peer lost" message, but I was disconnected from the internet altogether for 10+ minutes after game 1 and got a message about being disconnected from the EA servers after attempt 2. Both games dropped in the first quarter, but each time was right after Detroit scored a TD to go up 14-7 and 7-0, respectively. If I was in his position, I'd think I had quit, but I was able to reach him via Facebook mobile he was very cordial did not even insinuate in the slightest that I had quit, which shows the type of character he has. Class act.

I'm going to make sure the NAT and port forwarding stuff is set up properly, but I fear that the ISP itself may not allow me to play these games. ItlnStln suggested trying again another day, so we can try it tomorrow if he isn't busy. I will make time if necessary, assuming I can even connect. I will attempt to test connectivity with other games this evening.

This kind of information for both leagues is in the first post of each thread.
 
Peterson is in-fuckin'-credible. That is all.

An absolute thriller vs. the Giants--the 4th quarter was basically just trading TDs on each possession with a late pick by Turner and a missed FG right after thrown in. Threw a GW TD with about :16 left.

Great game, Ed Fn Reed. Watch out for the Giants, folks...but also watch out for them Vikings!
 
Damn it, Lexxon... stop winning games all dramatically and such. :p

I can vouch for Peterson's incrdible-ness in Madden, though. Dude can break tackles even when it seems like the whole defense is trying to pull him down.
 
Lexxon if I see you in the playoffs, AP is dead. GG but all dat work for a 6 point lose, I'd rather lose by 40 then to lose like that.
 
Chargers 34 - Broncos 28

There's really no way I can adequately capture the epicness of this game in words, but I'll try. Definitely one of the most amazing Madden games I've ever been a part of (and that's hundreds if not thousands at this point). I'll sum it up thusly: The Chargers triumphed by one inch and by one second. You'll see what I mean shortly...

I went into this game with the same strategy I seem to take with all my games against mog these days, as coined by the immortal Scottie Smalls: "Don't be a goofus." Games where I throw 4 or 5 interceptions are so common against mog that in our Bears-Panthers game I was basically like "you're gonna lose, just don't throw 5 picks." It was clear early on that I was in a similar shell this game, but the difference was my ground game actually held up. After the Broncos marched it down the field easily to open the game (as they would do much of the night) the Chargers came back with a strong first drive of their own featuring a ton of Ryan Mathews, capped off with a 3 yard run by Jamal Lewis 2.0 (his only carry of the game, but he's now scored in two straight weeks).

The second quarter is where things began to unravel as they always do. The Broncos D stepped up and their offense remained unstoppable, scoring 14 points unanswered to go up 21-7 at the half. Rivers also made his sole mistake of the game when he forced a ball deep for Moss which was picked off (the type of boneheaded play I usually make about 5 or 6 times against mog). What kept the Chargers in the game here was a fumble by the Broncos deep in Chargers territory, which while the Chargers didn't have enough time to capitalize, it at least kept them within 2.

The Chargers got the ball to open up the 3rd and needed a score to keep the game respectable, and they managed to get it when they drove the length of the field and score on a two yard Antonio Gates TD (for future historians, this is the moment when Philip Rivers finally shook the Broncos monkey off his back). The Broncos responded however, driving and capping it with a Moreno receiving TD to put them up 28-14 going into the 4th quarter.

What follows is Philip Rivers just going bananas in so grand a fashion so as to make me wonder what the hell I was thinking trying to trade him in the offseason (sorry Philip!) The Chargers put together a long drive, still running plenty since it had been working all game, culminating in a ridiculous 27 yard TD to Vincent Jackson in deep coverage (HIGHLIGHT). With 3:28 left on the clock and all their timeouts, the Chargers made the bold decision to onside kick and Darrell Stuckey actually came up with the recovery. However, though they put together a good drive they were ultimately stopped on 4th and 1 with under two minutes left. Things looked dire, but the D came up huge when they stopped a Tebow scramble on third down by one inch, forcing the punt. With 1:29 left and no timeouts from their own 20, facing the league's top pass defense, things seemed grim. The drive started off well but stalled after one first down, but Rivers completed a long pass to Jackson on 4th and 2 but it was in the middle of the field so they had to run up and spike it. This left the Chargers with 10 seconds left on the Denver 29. The first deep pass was intended for Moss but incomplete, but with 5 seconds left Rivers found Gates who carried a defender across the goal line with one second left on the clock to tie the game (HIGHLIGHT). After the extra point the Broncos tried to lateral the squib which almost ended in disaster, but they managed to recover.

The Chargers won the toss in OT and started the same way they had all game, pounding the ball. Mathews first carry went for 15 and his next for 6, but he was then stuffed, bringing up 3rd and 3 on the SD 42. The Broncos, perhaps excepting a screen or a short out to Gates (which had been money all night) crowded the line, allowing Vincent Jackson to slip behind the D and catch an over the shoulder pass which he took 58 yards to the house, ending the game (HIGHLIGHT). And what a game it was.

The Chargers put up 459 yards of offense, which must be pretty close to a record against mog in this league.

Rivers was 22 of 33 for 350 yards, 4 TDs and 1 INT. His best game against the Broncos by a mile.

Mathews carried it 24 times for 113 yards. Nothing flashy at 4.7ypc, but just a solid workmanlike effort. He added 3 catches for 46 yards.

Vincent Jackson led the way with 7 catches for 157 yards and 2 TDs. Gates had 9 catches for 88 yards and 2 scores.

Tebow was great, going 14 of 18 for 249 yards, 2 TDs and no picks.

Chris West carried 9 times for 107 yards, though Tebow and Jermaine Baker had the TDs.

Knowshon Moreno (who is now primarily a WR it seems) was the leading receiver with 6 catches for 80 yards and a score.

---
gg mog! Definitely an incredible game, I'm still somewhat high off the rush (which might explain the epic recap). As I mentioned before, you're the last league regular I've never defeated, so that makes it extra special.

Not to mention.. Chargers First Place! I'm enjoying that while it lasts. :D
 
[quote name='ubernes']No sir, they just got snatched today.[/QUOTE]

Aight sounds good. Keep me posted if anything ever opens up.
 
[quote name='bvharris']I'd already switched back over to the Chargers. I bet you're glad I won't be DOMINATING your division any more. :D



Byrd makes a fine SS, FYI.

Oh, and you're welcome for that 2-0 record. ;)[/QUOTE]

LoL Thanks. Yeah I'm sure Byrd is good but I prefer having a better selection of LBs. Either way I didn't get any interest so I'ma just keep him.
 
[quote name='MrRighTNoW818']When can I pick up FA's ??[/QUOTE]

I will open it up in Week 4 and we'll have a waiver process then. So hold tight.
 
Chiefs and Patriots announcing a trade

Patriots Trade
C Nick Hardwick 84 ovr, B pot, 33 yrs old

Chiefs Trade
RE Just Smith 85 ovr, A pot, 35 yrs old


Pretty much just a little shuffle deal. I'm shallow up front with Castillo and Wilfork out the next several weeks and I've got a rookie C who's up and coming.
Sprice pretty much wants to beef up his O line and Hardwick should be a good stand in until he can upgrade at the draft.
 
Chiefs fall to 0 and 2..... cowboys defense were all over my wrs.... my d couldn't stop his running attatck or his crossing routes....... all these losses in our devision were turning into the devision of powder puffs besides bv....... good game apple...... saints I sent u a xbox live message about ur rg let me know if ur interested
 
[quote name='sprice8688']all these losses in our devision were turning into the devision of powder puffs besides bv.......[/QUOTE]

Up is down, down is up!

I play the Cowboys next, I wonder whether I'm getting the version that beat you or the version who lost to mog in Week one 41-3...
 
He played a good game some luck involved I had some to but his corners were all over my wrs mccluster is hurt for 8 more weeks so it was tough.... I lost that game on my own.... my go to plays were not working for me.... and wats crazy is hargrove is so much better this year then last but I'm making him look like shit with bad decision making and some balls getting picked that should never be picked.... good luck but I hope u lose cus I'm struggling and don't wanna b out of playoff contention this early
 
I didn't realize his defense had gotten so stacked, but looking at it now it's pretty sick - might be even more stacked on paper than my offense is. Although if Rivers was able to throw for 350 yards on mog's secondary, he should be able to do anything.

Speaking of which, appleinthetree, if you want to get this game in tonight after we advance I'll be around.
 
Saints owner studson I don't think I've seen u in the thread so not sure if u will read this but I also sent u a xbox live message.... wondering about ur rg if ud be willing to trade??????? Let me know.... also uber wen u get a chance doesn't seem like anyone has a issue with mine and darths trade if u could put it through for us it be great.....thanks
 
I am going to need a sub to play Superstar tonight, Im about to leave the franchise here in a min. and will pick them back up tonight when I get back home. So whoever can play as the Bengals send Superstar a pm or something to set up a time.
 
[quote name='augmog']uber I lost dumervil for the season can I go into free agency and sign another LB?[/QUOTE]

For injury replacement FAs you can only sign one if you don't already have enough guys at the position (which in this case I guess would be 2). Not sure if that's the case for you or not.

He did say yesterday we're going to do a genera FA period in Week 4.
 
o ok the LOLB thats under dumervil on my roster plays DE who is jarvis Moss so that leaves me with only 1 LOLB
 
That's uber's call, but I'm not sure it matters where you play them. Looking at your roster it looks like you have 2 healthy players at both ROLB and LOLB, 4 RE and 2 LE. I think the league minimum we've always gone by is 2 each at every position (except WR and CB) before you can pick up an injury replacement.

Takers?

If he's rated lower than all your LBs then go ahead.
 
[quote name='ubernes']If he's rated lower than all your LBs then go ahead.[/QUOTE]

I thought the rule was you also had to not have enough healthy guys at the position? That's the assumption I've been going under in not picking up injury fill-ins for some of my longterm injury guys.
 
[quote name='bvharris']You might want to add their ages too, that's something people usually want to know right off the bat.[/QUOTE]

its just to get the attention - if they interested they will PM me
 
[quote name='Darth0fTheDead']I wouldn't mind subbing in for tanabeo, although I probably won't be able to until about 9 est.[/QUOTE]

9-9:30 eastern would be fine for me. IF thats okay let me know. IF not I will be around until 10:30 eastern time or so for any other sub
