[quote name='ubernes'] Curl routes are suicide in this game for that reason. [/QUOTE]

I used to think that too, but once I started trying them more I've had a lot of success. They're just much more dependent on precise timing than most routes. If you then aim the ball relative to where the defender is, it's a pretty reliable route. Of course, having a QB with 99 accuracy helps in that area.
 
Well streak is over, it was fun while it lasted. Ramesu did well getting the ball to Andre, who made some insane catches that I know he's capable of.

With that being said, easiest the laggiest game I've ever played in this league. Could not make proper cuts or coverage because of a 1 second delay. Two automatic field goals missed by Succop because it would lag on the meter when kicking.

Also fuck you Randall Gay. Could have iced the game away after a pick and the idiot fumbles. You're done on this team.
 
in a heart breaking loss to the saints
jags 19 saints 20
QB Matt Schaub showed up finally but i think its because he knows his job isnt safe anymore with Gabbert being back
18 for 24 with 326 yards 3 TDs and 2 INTs one that was towards the end of the game inside the endzone to seal the win but Roman Harper had other plans
the jags rushing game went no where today getting stopped left and right
Mikel Leshoure had his first fumble this year 99 carry my ass lol
WR Eric Decker had 5 Rec for 143 yards and 2 TDs
TE Marcedes Lewis had 9 Rec for 131 yards and 1 TD
WR Mike Williams 3 Rec 48 yards and still on the trading block someone come get this guy i dotn use him like i should


what cost me my game would be my wife and dog
kicking my extra point my wife just let the dog inside and he jumped into my lap and the extra kick was missed FML
GG Ballhawk it was a last second win that u earned for sure

we also expirenced lag in our game everynow and then

I didn't lag the game and it seemed like it cleared up by the time you missed both FG's. It's not like only one party has the lag to deal with and I don't think it was bad enough to cost either of us the game. GG at any rate.

I'm not going to trip anymore over a meaningless regular season game but the lag definitely affected the field goals. Oh well, such is life. Hopefully it won't happen again. But yes gg.

Randall Gay is already dead and in a body bag. Took care of that scrub.

Since I don't have the streak to worry about anymore. I'll just go for my bye and rest my starters now. The rest of these games don't mean much to the Chiefs.
 
so sick of these heart breaking losses lol i thought it was bad when i was getting my ass handed to me but now i that i stay in these games and always lose by a TD or less i find it just as frusrating its time to start winning

lol traded my number pick for schaub when gabbert went down had no choice but good news is
mike williams
matt schuab
blaine gabbert
are all up for grabs for a nice number one or good defense
 
I got fucking robbed. Un fucking believable. Down 3 with 40 seconds left, Julio Jones is wide open so I lob it and he caught it at the 5 and like a second later he gets hit and the ankles from behind and the ball just falls. Incomplete. Then the very next play I hit Mariano on a slant near the 25, he catches it takes two steps forward and runs out of bounds. It should be 1st and 10 with about 20 seconds left with the ball at 25 with 2 timeouts, down 3, but NO they call him out of bounds. Incomplete. Then there was only 10 seconds left and I had to throw two hail marys. Add to that at least 5 dropped interceptions, 2 of which were on that final TD drive, and I got absolutely screwed. If I don't make the playoffs because of this, fuck madden.
 
With all the talk of lag, would creating some sort of lag "measurement" make sense? Like if someone reports lag on a player it can go into a record and if too many incidents happen then maybe a replacement should step in?

Like if I have too much lag it probably isn't fair that it may handicap someone that could clearly beat me otherwise. Not that I think my connection is all that bad, but there are probably some people that have connections that are a negative for their opponent and probably shouldn't be playing online competitive games.

Never really been discussed. It does suck because it negatively affects all kicks. Pretty sure ballhawk said he lagged against Ramesu as well.

There are so many members who don't post after the game though, so it's hard to build a case.
 
well... there goes the season for the Panthers... poor defensive showing and my receivers not catching the ball killed me. GG Sprice
 
u 2 man... as bad as i wanted to pass as always ur def is always there ur my kryptonite i guess lol stuck wit mjd and he got me threw this one
 
Looks like me and cru have to restart it said something about a network connection error. I scored in three plays and cru was in my redzone lets see how this goes.
 
I went 3 and out on offensive then I Inted cru for a touchdown then the error come up again....
Is anybody else having problems?

Yeah, it seems the servers have been laggy all day. Pretty much everyone who's played has said they've had some problems.
 
titans escape tampa with a tough win...26-21 play of the game fumble scoop score on a punt. I know tanabeo wishes he could have that one back and call a fair catch. Bailed me out. Gg tanabeo.

I was hitting y like crazy and half the time i was trying to pass to LB my button was sticking I need a new controller
 
[quote name='BSETI50']Only thing is when it says connection to peer lost when they quit... u don't receive a win or loss in franchise mode. So you can't tell who lost connection.[/QUOTE]
Read that wrong, now I see what you're saying.
 
Yea I wrote that weird. But that's good stuff. Now u know if it says greiving for no obvious reason, it means the other person is cheating or manipulating something

:lol: I don't know, that has happened at random times to me in perfectly normal games.

@BV- Nothing needs to be done. Just showing that the servers aren't to blame in the case of lag.
 
My general point was it's not something we're ever going to "police", as Ultimate Matt was suggesting. I would hope if someone had a crappy connection and was always playing laggy games, it wouldn't be much fun for them either and they'd quit.

My connection was pretty crappy at times last year, so I went out and bought a wireless range extender and that cleared things up for the most part.

[quote name='BSETI50']Yep if it lags it means someone has a shitty connection. Period.[/QUOTE]

Or they have a perfectly fine connection and something happened on one end or the other which was out of the ordinary. A couple of years ago I played a game that was inexplicably laggy and it turned out my cat was asleep on top of my router.
 
Remaining Games:

Vikings-Cardinals
Browns-Steelers
Broncos-Chargers
Packers-Raiders
Cowboys-Eagles
49ers-Rams
Seahawks-Bengals
Bills-Dolphins

We've already played half of the games in under a day. Nice work, gents!
 
My connection is solid. I never lag, if anything I'll just lose connection but it never lags or glitches. I bought a signal booster at radioshack that connects directly to my xbox. Good investment.
 
BTW congrats to Ramesu and the texans for knocking off doomtime. Lag or not it deserves a little more recognition.
 
[quote name='sprice8688']did the niners rams finish or they tryun tomm[/QUOTE]

Looks like they must've given up. SEA vs CIN was tentatively set for tonight at 10:30, looks like we're moving that to sometime after 10 est tomorrow, sigh.
 
I know my connection isn't the best and some lag has been a part of quite a few of my games. I now live on a school campus and am subject to the shitiness of its internet.

A heads up to my future opponents, I'd be more than happy to let you play the cpu or get a sub if the lag on my end is burdensome. I'd hate for any of the rest of my games to be blamed on lag. And if it's a huge deal, I'd be ok with dropping from the league.

When we played it lagged at the very beginning then smooothed out. In older maddens I used to pause the game and just wait a minute or two. It seemed like it would just have to catch up to itself. What kind of internet do u use? Wifi?

Do you connect through WiFi on the campus? If so, one thing you might try is tracking yourself down a signal repeater and setting it up in your room. Just make sure you hide the SSID, or else you're going to have other people leeching off your boosted signal.
 
Just noticed that Brandon Browner picked up DPOY. Too bad this will most likely be his last week of service. My rookie CB is back and Bigby will be back next week.
 
Dvo you tried to send me a pm, but I can't open it for some reason, please send it again. Is anyone else having a lot of issues with CAG? It keeps booting me out of my name and doing all kinds of wierd stuff.

Anyways, I'm back from vacation so I can get my games in any time after 7:30pm EST during the week (I'm looking at you Vikings, hit me up).

Cardinals 17 -49ers 21
It sucks me and Cru got simmed, that could end up being a big game. But I get it.

Cardinals 14 - Rams 35
Good Game Ninja, this division is a beast.

Drees passed for 400+ yards

Cardinals 31 - Eagles 0

Good Game Pacer, everything was clicking for me in this one.
