[quote name='ubernes']Kilgo done for the season as well. Broken ribs.[/QUOTE]

I've noticed a lot of these rookie WRs are exceptionally squishy. Honestly, returning punts I'm shocked Holmes wasn't killed earlier (he did miss 2 games early). I really hope the injury ratings advance.
 
[quote name='DVO21']kaster db from the jv league wants to join im playing him right now he said he would take the bills over sound good???????/[/QUOTE]

That's one spot filled. Aftershock will be switching to the Bills and kaster db will take over the Broncos. After the season, obviously.

That leaves us with just the Panthers to fill (assuming no one else leaves).

Has Gronk gotten hurt a lot? His injury rating is as low as Sydney Rice. Rice is good for one 6-8 week injury every year.

He missed a game early, and a few last season. Maybe I've been lucky.

He goes down about once every other game. Typically he only misses a series, but I don't think his injury rating is low enough to warrant that. I know I lost him last week vs the Giants for a bunch of plays too. I don't even use him that much.
 
67 is pretty low. Not Bob Sanders territory or anything, but I'm never surprised when Holmes gets carted off. That's part of the adventure, any punt return could be his last!
 
Hey all, DVO told me about you guys looking for a new owner from the JV league. Playing him right now, if I hold on I'll be 6-2. He also told me I've been approved to take over when the season ends. So hey, nice to meet ya.
 
Injury rating is actually a pretty big factor for me when deciding who to take in the draft. I'll downgrade a bit at a certain position if the best available player has an injury rating in the 70s or below. My rookie WR is 95 injury...boo ya!
 
as for the the panthers opening up next season there may be another guy that may be interested in joining from the jv league hes got a pretty good record i beleive hes 7-1 with the rams might be a guy that could learn more from this league and also be really good and bring some comp. to this league once duece leaves let me know if u want me to talk to him also about it

Like I said earlier, if you're talking about Doctor Worm/lyric, he quit this league (as well as an actual league game) on more than one occasion. It didn't seem like he was having very much fun.

Up to him though, I'd welcome him back.

the orginal post was about kaster joining not lyric the second one about the panthers was but didnt realize hes like that.
but i dotn think we will have that problem with kaster i pre warned him that this league is alot tougher and that he may get his ass handed to him big time at first but that he will learn alot from playing in here and willl get alot better over time i also warned him about having to play u twice a year doom and wut u can do to a guy in madden aka cry lol. but i think he seems like a pretty good guy about how to take a big loss and knows its not always about winning but trying to learn and get better and everything like i said i dotn beleive we will have a problem with kaster like u guyes incountered with lyric with quitting during games and leaving the league

This isn't meant as a disparagement of the other league, but the players in here are orders of magnitude better. That's the idea of the other league after all, isn't it?

ya i agree with that 100% no doubt at all but even in this league my game has stepped up alot since the start of the season becuz if u look at my scores at the start of season 2 i didnt belong here but now towards the end my games is brand new and working and making things alot mroe interesting. but theres some guys in that jv league that can keep up not sure if its luck or if i just pretty much use that league to try new things and see if it works there to practice it there and get it down real good so i can use it here. maybe that makes sense maybe it doesnt i sounded good when i wrote it lol
 
[quote name='Doomtime']Good to know. Thanks for recruiting another guy.[/QUOTE]

ya no prob i try to do what i can for the league to help keep things going keeping it alive and keep interest as much as possible becuz i really enjoy playing the game alot and the comp. level in this league as well has help me progress my level of play in this game as well
 
[quote name='MasterAwesome']I'm definitely in for at least 16 more seasons![/QUOTE]

lol me to i could play this game everyday it helps me relax after a long day at work

i try tellin my gf that but she dont understand... this madden tho is either with u or against u... i played a ranked match against the giants with the lions dropped like 10 picks finally got one and had a roughing the passer call by the cpu then my tight end fumbles... i lost that game to a field goal which 2 plays before the field goal delmas dropped the game winner but it is wat it is i guess... even tho it makes me mad i still cant help but play at least once a day
 
I'm to the point now where I only come back to the game for league matches. I put too much time into it in August. So I'll just live or die by the same gameplan I've used the past few months.
 
Lol, I don't know what the fuck that was but the Seahawks lost a huge game. LV played AP for two fucking plays, ran the clock down 90% of the time, went for two in the first quarter and talked shit after he beat me. stay classy.

Funny that trading Tavaris Jackson would bite me in the ass. Though I was playing the Falcons on PS2 :p

To quote BV, that was bush league man.

Staticz, dude talking shit and making a joke amongst friends are a huge difference. Were in the same division and I thought the two of us were cool enough for me to make a stupid comment about T-Jackson. Wasn't looking to do any offending in that message.

As for the game. As an NFL coach I saw that I was no longer in the Playoff hunt (Thanks to the wonderful stats guys in this league)

I figured not benching my A pot Running back and a few nameless high potntial LB's was smarter than leaving in my courageous geszers at lb.

First drive I was rolling, can't stop that feeling. Big division game (I was 1-4 in it). And I figured the whole Tavaris Jackson, no Peterson thing had the jump on you enough to get two. ( Those are allowed right)

Brees has been throwing Picks, he lost to the Seahawks.

T-Jack had that trade hunger and with my speedy RB I figured I'd give the guy a try. I gave a fourth round pick for him.

Cardinal 18 - Seahawks 11

Ending with a 0:04 last play, Hayden INT on the 1.

When you knock someone out of the playoffs (I'm not entirely sure on that it was a 3 team race) because you felt like resting your starters (wtf? that is what you would do when you're in the playoffs) there isn't much room for joking. Maybe if we were jockeying for draft position I wouldn't have been pissed about it.

You definitely threw me off my game, congrats on that. I don't really understand how someone would ever bench two players rated 98 and 99 but whatever, it worked.
 
How can you be pissed that I didn't play my best players, that doesn't make sense?

But, as I said, sitting My back up running back does no good for him. Peterson will be just fine.

fuck Brees, guy has caused me nothing but problems. Jackson Broke the guys 5 game losing streak.
 
[quote name='LVPatriots']How can you be pissed that I didn't play my best players, that doesn't make sense?[/QUOTE]

I'm not pissed at you man, well a little ;P I'm pissed at myself for losing a ranked style match and forcing myself to need help to get into the playoffs AGAIN!

Actually I am pissed at you. I'm up to my 5th broken collarbone in Seattle!
 
I thought that that was another hard fought division battle, with hopefully more to come. Hope were cool.

I'm a sucker for quick QB's, when I traded a fourth rounder for him, it was bound to happen at some point.

I think calling it a ranked style match is a little excessive, I didn't break any rules that I can see.
 
[quote name='Doomtime']*- wildcard
NFC

1. New York Giants (11-2)
2. San Francisco 49ers (10-3)
3. Detroit Lions (10-3)

9. Philadelphia Eagles (7-6)
10. Carolina Panthers (7-6)
11. St. Louis Rams (6-7)[/QUOTE]

Panthers and Seahawks both lost giving the Falcons a little breathing room. The Bears also play the Saints, so if they lose they will be 7-7 and pretty much out of contention leaving the remaining wild cards at: ATL, GB, SEA, and Philly. If the Eagles lose, they are pretty much out, which would leave ATL, GB, and SEA. The Falcons have the tie breaker over GB and neither team has played SEA so I don't know how that would work if we end up tied. Needless to say, this game is extremely important (since I got screwed by the Madden gods, and ended up losing to the Bears last week) if I want to make the playoffs.

EDIT: Although I guess it is a possibility that I could still end up winning the NFC South. I would have to win out (DET, CAR, JAC) and the Saints would have to lose two games (CHI, CAR, NYG) since they beat me twice.

The Lions are tough man. Sprice has passing skillllllllzzzzz. Good luck, but I'm hoping for everyone to lose now!

Yeah, he wrecked me last year 21-0, but when we played in the bad tournament, I had like 8 interceptions and won by like 50 (although Vick =/= Stafford). I still think I will lose, but at least I have a miniscule amount of confidence now. (Still pretty mad about the Bears loss though :hot:, it would have pretty much secured the wild card for me).
 
[quote name='Doomtime']LV I'll take Brees if you and him are having relationship problems. :D[/QUOTE]


Bring on the offers. (In the off season of course).

Brees is The Guy. He most likely starts next week.

same thing i say... i lived by it for season 1 and now i'm dying by it in season 2. i'll have a very long offseason to retool my offense and defense. cant wait to see who the Panthers draft, especially since ANYONE they draft will be an instant help...
 
[quote name='staticz']So Doom, you are playing your starters against the Packers, right?[/QUOTE]

Still haven't completely decided, though I most likely will. I just can't afford another major injury especially on the defensive side of the ball.

I know you're having trouble with PMs but consider the Jets first in line for Brees. I have plenty of defensive players I can send your way.

I'd like to see Sanchez progression first but even so I'm very interested.

that game still hurts my heart ur defense was all over my wrs noone could tackle ur runningbacks... but this time will see if ur corners can outjump dallas strong and calvin johnson if u overload the middle with defenders :)..

I sorted out his issue, you should be able to PM him now.
 
[quote name='BSETI50']Do they make it for xbox?[/QUOTE]

Yeh it came out yesterday on XBLA. There is a thread a few pages down, no one is impressed. Too bad the NFL took all the nostalgia out.

Maybe I can track down a cabinet, that shit would be awesome!
 
Anyone interested in Brees can send me a PM, my CAG is back working thanks to BV.

Mostly looking for defensive players or O-Lineman. But I'm open to all suggestions.
 
People are welcome to discuss offseason trades in PMs, just please don't post any deals in the thread until after the season ends, even if you come to a tentative agreement.
