Madden 13 Official CAG League - On Hiatus. See you in August for Madden 25!

[quote name='staticz']Chiefs - 45
Browns - 10

Welp...first game to produce a highlight video and I didn't hit record :roll:

Chiefs were dominate in this one scoring 14 points in the first minute of the game thanks to Charles and Eric Berry. After that there wasn't much swinging the Browns way. Manning 8 for 18 with 1 TD and 4 INTs and the Browns running game only managed to gain 35 yards.

35 yards on the ground isn't very good but the Chiefs managed -3 passing yards....yes negative three yards. Luckily Charles was in charge (see what I did there), rushing for 201 yards on 20 carries.

The game ball has to go to Josh Cribbs who was nearly cut after a lackluster preseason. Cribbs ran a punt back for a score and had returned a FG attempt for a 109 yard score!

Defensively Flowers and Berry both had a pair of INTs while rookie OLB Alves led the team with 2 sacks.


GG Mile High! Things just didn't go your way in the beginning and it is always tough to come back from that.[/QUOTE]

Yes it was a very tough game for me. My Linebackers are complete garbage. I counted at least 3 or perhaps 4 times where I had Charles stuffed in the back field for a loss and yet he still managed to get by my linebackers for a 10+ yard gain. Very frustrating.

My running game was ok but I had to abandon it so early due to being down 21-3. I wish I could of provided a more balanced attack.

Perhaps the one area of the game that frustrated me most was the coverage by Flowers. No matter what route I had Platt run, Flowers was there. This despite the fact that Platt has terrific release and incredible speed. I don't get how he never once got separation.

Lastly great punt returns for a TD by Cribbs. Nicely done though I noticed the 109 yard play did not count as a kick return TD or punt return TD, so that really sucks. He was only credited with one TD.

With that said, I am in need of some upgrades at LB. Please send an offer.

Flowers' brother-in-law is one of the lead developers on Madden, there's secret code in the game that makes him impossible to throw on. True story.

I like to think it is my uncanny ability to develop talent.
 
Jaguars over come Patriots 20-17

My Rookie QB Delonte Flowers came to play, and ended up going 12-19, 201yds, 2Tds, and 1INT. He was dead on almost all game. Great game og! I explicitly focused on Gronk, and you got me a couple of times with Lloyd.
 
[quote name='staticz']Panthers, Bengals, Texans....ugh. Should have tanked the last game and got 2nd in the division.[/QUOTE]

Panthers are in the NFC, you play them no matter what. And we both play the Bengals. Only difference is you get Doom and I don't, and then you get the Bills while I get the Jets.

[quote name='perdition(troy']Not allowed in the middle of drives[/QUOTE]

Er, well it's happened on every drive of this game so far, lol.
 
[quote name='Superstar']What is the rule for subbing QB's in and out? Sorry in the middle of a game so it's hard to look it up.[/QUOTE]

[quote name='perdition(troy']Not allowed in the middle of drives[/QUOTE]

This. You can swap them out mid-drive, but you need to send your opponent a message saying you are. If it's to start a drive, no message is required.
 
Yep. Doo Mane is swapping between Joe Webb and Eli Manning in the same drive on every one of his drives so far. That's why I was asking

Pause the game and tell him to stop.

Doo Mane, please review the rules on hot swapping QBs.

The game is over now. He was clearly better than me. I am not making excuses for my loss and I am not sure if he was aware of the rule (since I wasn't either obviously, haha). Hopefully he doesn't do it again though.

Edit: He apologized and didn't know the rule. All is well!

chetty forgot to put the Bucs are last seasons superbowl Champs :)
 
[quote name='Doomtime']If they're wildcat runs where it specifically says wildcat, isn't that allowed?[/QUOTE]

Going to implement a Tebow package eh?
 
[quote name='MasterAwesome']I saw the man himself Tebow sitting in FA last night...I thought of picking him up to back up Cam but that accuracy is just awful :/[/QUOTE]

I signed him for about an hour just to take a look. Just terrible.

I couldn't even trade him. I had to cut him and his 4 mil dollar a year salary. The best part is there was no cap hit for cutting him. Thank the lord.
 
I know man I will contact him for you troy and tell him check the thread

Does anybody have any recievers or tight ends available ?
 
Sorry to hear that, Man. Are you okay?

Can someone tell me who the Packers play? I have had a ridiculously busy last couple days and haven't been able to get on and check. No one has contacted me, and I would like to set up the game for tomorrow afternoon.

Edit: I guess we can try tomorrow[/QUOTE]

Hey Troy I'm online now
 
Jets vs Bills going on tomorrow afternoon. Haven't played a game of Madden in what seems like weeks. Didn't get one preseason game in, so hopefully these guys are ready. I still need to sign TJ Graham :/

I synced up our league to that website. From what i hear, it's similar to xfn that everyone used last year. It makes it easy to view stats and individual player attributes. I havn't been able to do roster moves, but this is still definitely better than the EA website. If you want to join just create a login and click join on the tab, then let me know and i'll approve it.

Edit: Apparantly, this was an issue when this was brought up before but this can be synced by one person.

Is it customizable? I've got all of the theme stuff from XFN last year. Doesn't matter either way because this is so nice to have again!

Yeah it is. Kind of reminds me of MySpace back in the day. As longs as you still have all the codes and stuff, I'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult to integrate it.
