[quote name='BigAT']What happened? I guess I missed something.

Thanks for giving it to OG.[/QUOTE]

Some jackass dropped/traded all the players from the unowned teams in both this league and the fantasy league (which effectively killed it). Fero was gracious enough to spend several hours fixing it, but we're being very careful with the password going forward.
 
[quote name='LVPatriots']I don't know how Tanabeo remembers it, but I didn't do it every play.

I can't see anyone having a problem with.

"I got a 10 yard reception, o wow look at all those linebackers on the field, I should hurry up try and throw up a bomb"

As it happened I caught 3 deep passes doing that exact thing, 2 for TD's.

Hurrying up when you see a vulnerable defense is part of the whole reason it exists.[/QUOTE]

Then yeah, that's entirely fine. Learning audibles is a fundamental skill everyone in this league should know by now.


@bv- First time in a long time I rooted for New England to win. All the Tebow lovers were crying last night.

The Broncos fans I know were pretty realistic going in about their prospects of winning that one. Obviously anyone who thought they were ready to hang with the elite teams in the league probably got a rude awakening.

To be honest, I found Tebow pretty exciting to watch having never really watched a full game of his this year. I don't think he's ever going to be a great QB, but he's certainly entertaining on the field. Although I did enjoy watching the option get blown up on their 2nd fumble, almost as much as I enjoyed the 29 yard sack (which I think in Tebow's case they should deduct from his rushing total :D).

I agree with this completely.

Also I really hope that no one in the league is still calling there defenses blind.

Since I started waiting to see what the offense calls before I call my defense, I have found playing defense 10x more fun.

:lol: Yeah a few of those plays he tried to do way too much. Still don't know what to think about that guy. Ugly mechanics that will be tough to fix, but he is definitely entertaining to watch. I just know I'll never drink as much Bronco kool-aid as Skip Bayless.

There are a few guys that still gameflow. Don't trust Madden people!
 
[quote name='bvharris']They don't do it all game of course, but the Patriots pretty routinely run entire drives in the hurry up with great success.[/QUOTE]

When debating over the use of hurry up I always hesitate to (and never have) brought this point up.

It is kind of similiar to the "Bill Belichick has gone for it on 4th down in a similiar position, so I can" argument.

I always feel like it will sound like,

"The Patriots do everything better than everyone else and they are perfect and since this 1 of 32 teams in the NFL can do it, it is NFL authentic"

, to everyone else.

I don't think BV was saying that at all.

But, to BV's comment, I'd say that just because one of the best QB's in history can maintain long hurry up drives several times in one game, it doesn't mean that it is Authentic to the NFL to run long hurry up drives several times a game.

LOL, maybe I should have just pm'ed this to BV.
 
[quote name='staticz']Are we on track to advance early tonight?
[/QUOTE]

We'll definitely be advancing tonight, I don't know about early.

I assume Eagles-Giants is being played now, so it depends on Bears-Vikings.

I must have missed this post from Superstar:

[quote name='Superstar']Sorry - I've been busy with christmas shopping with the wife. You can play the cpu. My interest in madden lately is dying :( Especially since swtor is here.[/QUOTE]

I'm not sure a CPU game is fair in a tough division like the NFC North, are any of the other 1 win teams available to sub against mog?
 
[quote name='staticz']Are we on track to advance early tonight?

If so, can you play around 10est LV?[/QUOTE]


ABSOFREAKINLUTELY, thats right about after MNF right, if not, I'd like to see then end of MNF and then play. Should be a brawl tonight!
 
[quote name='LVPatriots']ABSOFREAKINLUTELY, thats right about after MNF right, if not, I'd like to see then end of MNF and then play. Should be a brawl tonight![/QUOTE]

No, that would be right in the middle of the game.
 
[quote name='bvharris']Ironically, I never use it.[/QUOTE]

Yea, I don't think your comment was meant to make a point or justify anything. You probably just saw Doom blaspheming by using the Manning name instead of the Brady name in reference to hurry up. And had to comment.
 
if im down i also use hurry up at least untill i catch up. some people try to burn the clock on u when its the 2nd quarter and there up
 
[quote name='bvharris']No, that would be right in the middle of the game.[/QUOTE]


Ehh, Statciz it may have to be a Tuesday night game then if thats ok? Anytime after 7:30 pm EST, pm me back.

Thanks dude, i completely forgot!

The 5 minute games may be long enough to catch up, but if my opponent is literally running out the clock to the last second on offense. I would punch him in the face is he acted like I was being a jerk for running hurry up.

Really I was just pointing out that there are NFL teams who do it for entire drives routinely. I know other teams do it as well, but the Patriots are the only team for whom I watch every down. :D

But yeah, the offense I run in this year couldn't be more different than what the Pats are running.

The only person in this league who I knew of that actively did that was the Bills owner who we kicked out last season. As far as I know we don't have anyone else left who milks the clock all game. I agree it's about the most annoying thing on the planet.

As long as it is better than the game i played against the niners...good luck with him.

Ill be on till 12est so if we catch each other cool, if not we can do it tuesday

[/QUOTE]

KC was doing it a lot, along with dropping two guys back during punts. I swear Haley learned everything he knew from playing Madden. It was like watching a terrible cheeser
 
[quote name='staticz']KC was doing it a lot, along with dropping two guys back during punts.[/QUOTE]

The Bears did that from time to time with Hester and Knox (before he died).

Every time I see someone drop an extra guy in Madden, I wish you could audible to a fake, because they almost always drop the guy who was covering up the FB. :D

I do it :). But not all game. All I was saying is that if I (or anyone else) was running out the clock to the last second, I (that person) would have no right to critricize the opponent for doing whatever he could with the little time I gave him.
 
Just looked at all of the Suprise Onside Kick by the Chargers talk....

Yeesh, obviously you can't punish someone for something that hasn't officially been banned.. And I thought the Chargers owner was new anyway? (Meaning if it wasn't on the first page how would he know)

It is probably impossible to pick out every situation in Madden in which you can do something that would NEVER happen. (This was one example)

Also, does everyone in the league watch the NFL? lol. Hard to fault someone for a non-NFL play if they don't watch or care about it. They're could be a few exclusive gamers who like Madden but not football? Does that exist?

BitchVaginaHarris=Not cool Deuce, but i'm not really big into cencorship.

Just Deuce trying to be funny (and failing). Since I'm an adult, and not 12, I don't let name calling bother me. Reflects more on him than me anyway.
 
Sorry guys, literally just walked in the door from my long-weekend trip. If the Giants haven't played a sub or the CPU, please have him do so. Sorry if I held anything up, I'm ready for Week 10.

He already played. We're just waiting on Bears-Vikings now.. I think we might need a sub for the Vikes.

I thought it was originally said by Matt young sometime during madden 11? That's obviously behind both of you now though.

It sounds like we do. Superstar said he couldn't play?
Who can step up?
 
[quote name='ubernes']It sounds like we do. Superstar said he couldn't play?

I don't know, he said the other day he wasn't in a Madden mood since SWTOR came out, I don't know whether that means he's dropping or what, I assume not. I booted him for now so a sub can step in. Not sure whether Mog is around or not though.
 
I can sub in 45 Minutes in the hour before MNF

Gotta start it at 7:40 est at latest though

Who has the Bears/Vikings?

More than willing, but I won't be on here I'll on be on X-BOX Live: MurdaModeLV

Let me know

We'll be advancing once Bears-Vikings is played.

[quote name='gbpackers94']DeCoud didn't get DPOTW :whistle2:(. 3 interceptions sounds a lot more impressive than 6 tackles and 4 sacks. It is what it is.[/QUOTE]

Cobie Ross brings home his second offensive rookie of the week award in a row, and is starting to pull away in the ROY race. Time to step your game up, other rookies. ;)

1. Make the playoffs
2. Get Matt Bryant the kicker of the year award :cool:
