Rest assured the conditions will be clear when you travel to Reliant Stadium...
 
[quote name='BSETI50']I just hate the rain storm that follows my team to every stadium[/QUOTE]

I've played over 75% of my games in this franchise in the rain. I wish I was exaggerating that number. :bomb:

I'm taking a dome team next year.

Us trading the Cardinals and Patriots in Madden 13 will always be on the table.

Other than the Pats and Eagles though, I think I'd want to keep the Cardinals. I've gotten to like these guys and the competitive division.

Unless the LV, Cru, Staticz, Ninja division was broken up, then I probably wouldn't care as much.

Yeah buddy, though i haven't beaten Cru once :p

I don't see the Seahawks being any better next year which sucks, but I'd probably keep them. Their stadium is awesome
 
For some reason (maybe not in my first season) me and Cru usually have really close games. And I have atleast one win against him and I'm hopeful for atleast one more this season.

I also liked that the Cardinals were far from perfect when I got them, so I had to work stuff out and make trades.

Unfortunately i traded my best CB for a QB who now sits on the bench, and I can't trade. But you have to learn somehow right?

The Seahawks project has been fun but I have to wonder how I'd do with an upper echelon team right out of the gate.

i enjoy playing as an average team to make them better.... i think ive made the lions a good team... plus it helps my gameplan having the best wr in the game :)

I would beg to differ sir, I rarely play with MegaTron, but try out Larry Fitz for a few days and see if you can still say that.

I'd probably take Megatron if I had to choose. It's like choosing between two different flavors of awesome, but I think Johnson's speed and acceleration edge on Fitz give him a leg up in Madden.

couldnt have said it better myself
..fitzgerald isnt taking a slant to the house. any big play jump ball calvin can make... never used fitz not that i wouldnt want him cause i seem to be a wr whore and would take him but id rather take calvin...

I don't think I'd consider the Lions average. Maybe the Seahawks are just way below average :( They were the second worst team based on overall when we started the franchise, I think.

EDIT: I'd take Megatron over any player in the game. He is absolutely unstoppable.

They were certainly closer to average when we started. I suspect they're much better in newer rosters.

Having used Stafford in the fantasy league, he's definitely not without his lumps in this game. Sprice gets a lot out of him. That offense will be amazing in the game next year.
 
An overlooked attribute for receivers though is run blocking...Fitzgerald has better run-blocking than most TEs which helps a lot for those outside runs. He's also freaking insane in every receiving stat across the board (aside from speed...which I think is pretty overrated in this Madden). I've never seen a player with that many 99s....if age isn't being considered, I'd definitely take Fitzgerald.

after playing last yr with the chiefs and this lions roster i hope so
 
[quote name='Ultimate Matt X']We're passed the trade deadline right? What about free agent pickups? I need defense badly and I'm willing to deal.[/QUOTE]

Nope, the trading deadline will be Week 10.

aside from how there rated gamewise if they both were free agents who do u choose
 
[quote name='augmog']there wont be any FA pick ups?[/QUOTE]

Probably not. We may do one later in the season, but we'll see. Right now there are no plans for it.

We've already had several rounds of FA plus two drafts worth of player additions.
 
By the way: I read that the finalized Madden 12 Online Franchise roster update is gonna be released sometime after the Superbowl (no exact date was given as far as I saw)...I know it's a stretch this late into the league, but would anyone be interested in starting up another franchise (in conjunction with the current one) with the updated rosters? At least we could see if there's any interest...I know it's a risky move since adding another league could burn people out quicker and end up harming our current league in the process, but I for one still can't seem to get enough Madden, so I'm guessing there are other people out there who are looking to get more games in too.
 
I didn't realize MegaTron was taking slants to the house.

I really wish we could practice with our league teams cause I bet Kilgor could pull off slants to the house if I ever got a chance to try him out. I replaced Larry with him as my Number 1 WR last game just to get him some action.

I'm guessing it's a bit late in the game to get that going, but my all means give it a shot.

I'm down, but only if it is a Fantasy Draft. Which I doubt everyone will want.
 
[quote name='sprice8688']aside from how there rated gamewise if they both were free agents who do u choose[/QUOTE]

I don't really understand..are you talking in the real NFL if I was a GM or something?? I dunno it'd be tough...Fitzgerald is pretty damn consistent, he's been getting 1000+ yards every season even with shitty QBs throwing it to him. Calvin had a monster season this year since Stafford was actually healthy, but seems like the riskier choice since his production seems like it's at least partially tied to Stafford staying healthy...which isn't a given. But since age would be a factor in real life too, I guess I would take Calvin???? I dunno....I don't like to think too much on these hypothetical scenarios.

Cause if you're talking Madden still...it wouldn't make sense to ask me who I would take "aside from how their rated" since ratings are everything in Madden.
 
[quote name='Doomtime']0% interest in another league. Good luck getting it off the ground though. I hope it works out.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I should have mentioned I definitely won't be playing in it. I'd be happy to offer any suggestions/support though if you did get it going.
 
Well I know that me Widow and Bseti have had interest in a new fantasy league, so if we get a good amount of applicants that could happen.

I don't think 32/32 players would be necessary to have a good time.

However, I don't think it will ever happen. Maybe in this league's off-seaon.
 
[quote name='GpNinja']We had a fantasty leauge goin but it stopped I was 13-3 too :eek:[/QUOTE]


I was in that too Ninja, I was the one who proposed we sim to the playoffs that never got played...

It really got stopped by all that bull ish with someone screwing up all the teams, granted it was a little slow and not as good at communicating or being run as this league, but it was still a hell of a lot of fun.
 
Reds711 and I can't seem to connect. No matter who invites who, our consoles freeze up on the pregame loading screens. I have an open NAT and he said he has a solid connection, so I'm not sure what the deal is.

Same thing happened to Pacer and I last season. I suspect that even if you try a sub, nothing will work. We had to sim that game.

Definitely sucks, but I'm not sure there's any other option.
 
How about we just try again tomorrow around the same time if you're available? I'm hoping that it's not like BV/Pacer's game. We both need a win right now, so a sim would suck.
 
[quote name='Reds711']Yea for some reason the game keeps freezing. Idn what we should do???[/QUOTE]

ive had it happen before i waited an hour or two to try again and it ended up working for me
 
Same time doesnt work for me I have to work. I free until 2 pm ET and thats it. I mean if we both cant meet we should sim. it sucks cause we both need a win but what can you do...

Go for it, though I'd caution against getting your hopes up. :cry:
 
[quote name='Matt Young']Okay, based on what DVO said, how about we try again in a little while, like 5 P.M. Pacific/8 P.M. Eastern?[/QUOTE]

Alright sounds good
 
[quote name='staticz']Try unranked and then the winner can play the CPU. Only problem there is the teams aren't even close anymore.[/QUOTE]

If it's the same problem Pacer and I had (which it sounds like), then that won't work either. Won't even let you play the CPU.
 
If nothing works a sim seems like the best option, thats what we did when the Cardinals and Steelers was doing the same thing (but that was at the end of the season and mattered less, + we were in ultra-sim mode)
 
so Chargers/Steelers, Redskins/Bears is all we are waiting on besides this Packers/Falcons game? do we have those 2 scheduled? seems like Thursday night will be it, but hopefully it's early.
 
the titans first round pick is up for grabs the jags have the rights to this pick contact me if interested looking for
CB
