I am really sorry, I wish I could do something.

It was a really bizarre and awful game. I think Orton threw 8 picks, Brady 3, we fumbled. You caught a tipped pass for a 90 yard TD, the opening kick return by me and the resulting TD play. It was also the first time I've seen the return of super LB in the form of Bruschi, that guy was like Neo in the matrix, moprhing in front of crossing routes, one handed super jump catches.

In all honesty it was the worst game of 10 I have ever played and not because I lost it was just so arcadish.

I am hoping you win the sim game.

Not your fault, I understand. Sure hope I win the sim!

The game was awful. Orton threw 9 Ints (sorry to add another Kyle). The tipped pass TD was a 98 yarder, pulled in by Galloway. I couldn't have saved that highlight anyway as it was too long. It just showed Galloway running. I missed a FG real bad, as some lag on my end has been throwing off my kicking/punting game. Yeah, I saw Bruschi do this leap into the air, thought he was going to do a kartwheel. I think Bodden had 4 INTs....doesn't matter now.

The Falcons pulled out a tough one in San Fran 42-27.

Was a close first half as the niners capitalized on late half turnovers to take lead 20-14 going into halftime. Falcons dominated the second half though and lead 35-20 with just under two minutes remaining in the game. The computer then took the ball and no huddled and scored, taking around 30 seconds off the clock.

The Falcons coach went uh oh...another onside kick that I will not get. Sure enough... the kick bounced right off my sure handed reciever and niners recover. But a few plays later Chris Houston makes a pick and takes it to the house to seal the deal.

I have yet to recover an onside kick by the cpu ...it is so frustrating I just have to laugh it off. Anyone else seeing these automatick onside kicks for the cpu?

Funny. I've never seen a successful onside kick by player or CPU.

I've never had the cpu get one on me but I finally did recover one against the cpu a few games ago, think it was the first time ever for me in all of the Madden games.

Warner throws for 350 and 5 TD's (a pair each to Boldin and Fitzgerald) as the Cards stay perfect at 5-0 by defeating Seattle 38-17.

Nothing dramatic. Hawks took a 10-7 lead in the second quarter before Warner got white-hot for the remainder of the game.

Beanie Wells had something like 14 carries for 28 yards. Ridiculous how many runs are stuffed in the backfield, or he's dodging 2 guys at the LOS.

Titans win slugfest over the Pats. . .

Post by tmdba37 »

The Titans and Pats started off with body blows in this match-up of AFC Heavyweights posting a scoreless 1st Quarter. . .

It stayed scoreless after the Pats Vince Wilfork stuffed Chris Johnson on a short 4th and Goal dive at the 1 yard line. . .

Unfortunately for the Pats, shortly after their fine defensive stand, the Titans' Jacob Ford Sacked Tom Brady in the endzone for the first two points of the game. . .

On the Pats' next possession, Ricky Manning Jr. Intercepted a Brady pass and took it 38 yards to the house. . .for a 9-0 Lead. . .

The Patriots quicky got back up and landed a bruising right hand to the Titans when Brady hit Joey Galloway for a 78 yard TD Pass. . .making the score 9-7

The Titans would get a late FG to make the score 12-7 at the half. . .

In the 3rd Teddy Bruschi stripped the ball from LenDale White and scampered 74 Yards for the TD. . .a missed 2pt try left the score 13-12 Pats. . .

Reeling and against the ropes, the Titans would, after a missed FG, get the ball back early in the 4th where Chris Johnson put them back on top for good with a 34 yard run for a TD--the 2pt try was good and the Titans took back a 20-13 Lead. . .

The Titans added a late FG and survived the Tom Brady Miracle on Ice 4th Quarter Comeback Tour to eventually win this brawl 23-20.

The Titans take week seven off and the Patriots try to rebound in Tampa vs. the CPU owned Bucs. . .

Great game...too little, too late for me. Highlight for me was that goal line stand. Take care.

Cleveland 24
Pittsburgh 21

Pittsburgh scores the only points in the first quarter with a 66 yard touchdown pass to Willie Parker. After Cleveland added a 29 yard field goal in the second, Santonio Holmes takes the kickoff 101 yards for a score to put the Steelers up 14-3. Brady Quinn would hook up with Brian Robiskie for an 8 yard td pass with 31 seconds to go in the half and the Steelers would go into halftime with a 14-10 lead. On Clevelands opening drive of the third quarter Troy Polomalu returns an interception 65 yards for the score to put the Steelers up 21-10.

The Browns Corey Williams would get the Browns back into the game when he got into the Steelers backfield and took a pitchback intended for Willie Parker in for a 7 yard score. Jamal Lewis would score early in the 4th on a 31 yard run to put the Browns up 24-21. There would be no more scoring the rest of the game and the Browns hold on for the 3 point victory to improve to 4-2 while Pittsburgh falls to 1-5. Next week the Browns host the Packers and the Steelers host the Vikings.

Tomorrow night should work, as long as I've got my TV issues worked out. Later is generally better for me, most nights.

DeAngelo Hall led the way at FedEx Field with three touchdowns, one on a field goal return early in the second half, as the Redskins improved to 4-2 with a 63-21 drubbing of the winless Kansas City Chiefs.

The Redskins scored 28 points in the 2nd quarter to make the score 42-0 at the half. The last two of those TDs were interceptions returned for scores, both inside the final minute of the half.

The 2nd half started with a second pick six for Hall, and then the long return on the missed 55 yard FG attempt. As the Redskins took the foot off the pedal in the late third quarter, the Chiefs got their offense going. They ended up with 398 total yards, 384 of those in the air, mostly in the final stanza. As the starters for the Redskins saw limited time, the Chiefs were able to break the shutout and finish with three touchdowns in the last nine minutes of the game.

Clinton Portis had only 61 yards rushing, but he carried the ball only 7 times, including one 9 yard TD run on the first possession of the game. He also ran a screen pass in from 15 yards in the first quarter, and his day was just about done by then. Campbell threw for 170 yds on 8-12 throwing with 3 TDs, including this pretty 53 yard throw to Moss in the 2nd quarter.

The Chiefs had six turnovers, all interceptions from Cassel, to the Redskins two, both fumbles (one of which was yet another interception of a toss-sweep by a D Tackle, but this one didn't go for the score). Though Kansas City dominated in time of possession, total yards, total offense, and passing yards, they were never competitive in the game, falling behind 14-0 in the first quarter, and 42-0 by halftime.

GG CPU; I got my revenge for last week's beat down. :P

The Redskins now prepare to host the NFC East leading Philadelphia Eagles, as the Chiefs head home to host the struggling Chargers.



Terry: maybe after week eight is done, you can do some power rankings? If you're still interested that is. I'd love to see that stuff once we're around halfway through.

eman: The best time for me to play will probably be Monday Night, hopefully around 8pm so we don't miss too much of MNF. I don't know my schedule Tuesday, but that could work as well, but later. Let me know what would work for you with the PMs (I hate to clutter this thread with to much scheduling conversation).

NO!! You must leave on your own if you want to rejoin. If Danimal kicks you, you can NEVER get back in. This is what happened to Blublub.

I hope EA changes that soon and allows kicked players to be invited back, or at least support make an exception for us upon our request regarding Blublub, but so far nothing.

Michael Turner. Michael Turner. Michael Turner.

That was the beginning, middle and end of the story as the Falcons knocked off the Bears in a tight 23-17 contest. The Bears got efficient play from Jay Cutler, but were unable to establish any kind of running game. The hosts, on the other hand, sledgehammered the visiting Bears into submission with their workhorse RB. The Bears tried everything to stop the human battering ram, but he repeatedly brushed aside LB's with little concern on the way to 137yds and 2 TD's on just 17 carries.

The critical play was a 3rd and 5 deep in Chicago territory at the start of the 4th quarter. It looked like the Bears had gotten to Matt Ryan, which would've forced a FG attempt, but the young QB backpedaled his way downfield and threw a bullet off his back foot to TE Tony Gonzalez. That conversion set up Turner's second TD and the Falcons had the lead for good.

The Bears had one last chance at the game, due to ATL aggressively going for it on 4th and 1 on the Bears 20 with just over 2:00 left. The Bears sold out to stop Turner, with Lance Briggs slicing in to stop the big back. But the Bears were unable to move the ball against the home defense and went down to their second defeat of the year.

A sight all too common for the Bears D in this game:

Great game, Mr. Truth. Old fashioned football. Look forward to a rematch sometime.

Danimal I'm stuck here at work for at least another hour or so. I didn't realize you couldn't kick me and then just play out your game if I wasn't around. Really sorry about that. I'll jump out of the league as soon as I get home tonight (probably around 11pm PST) and then rejoin whenever you move over to the next week.
