Yeah, I don't know what the deal is. I have Chris Johnson as my starter, and every time he leaves with fatigue, he never comes back. It's weird. Your problem was that you had Bush slotted as a WR, so it defaulted to Charles when Peterson went down.

Yeah sometimes the computer just doesn't let you win, no matter what. Its extremely frustrating when you dominate 80% of the games against computer, then u get one of those games that you can't win, even if you restart it. Happened to me a few weeks back, I restarted it a few times, mostly due to fumbling the ball like it was a greased pig right off the bat in multiple games and the other team being unstoppable.

The whole fatigue and subs thing is horrible in the online league. I don't get it when all the other game modes its normal and seems to be accurate. Seems like a simple fix to me, but prob won't ever see a patch for it.

Progressed the week, week 10 is ready to play.

Game is in the books.

I'm going to be honest, I restarted twice yesterday because Adrian Petersen kept breaking his collarbone. The first game he has almost 300 yards rushing on like 10 carries. busted it with under 2 minutes left and was done for the year. second game he broke it again and was out for 10 weeks, but i was going to just deal with it until aaron rodgers also got a foot injury that was going to sideline him for about 8 weeks. third game was one of those where the computer becomes amazing. was a 2 point game in the 4th quarter until i returned an INT.

Mussa-- can you resend the google invite to Sorvok?

Yeah I played my game yesterday and I had at least 5 guys get injured in first half, none for more than a quarter though, but it kept the game close. Then I scored 35 points in the 4th and totally blew them out 70 - 10. First possession of the game for me I hit Braylon Edwards and dove for endzone on the sideline, clearly fumbled the ball on the one and went out of bounds, but it was called a fumble out of bounds in endzone and they got it at the 20. I couldn't challenge and replayed it 5 times and it was def fumbled at the one. Good ol Madden!

How the heck are you guys getting so many sacks? Is it your LE getting them all? Trent Cole is highest rated Dlineman on my team and he's not leading my team. I find no matter the skill level of the LE, they always seem to get more sacks. I think I'll be moving Cole to LE. I tested it in my franchise and I got 5 in one game, but just curious if the LE was consistent with you guys too.

yeah thats actually the only position i get sacks from. not even sure who my dude is, lawrence jackson, but i've had 2 double digit sack games from him.

Zanshin · March 24, 2010, 10:43:42 AM

When I get sacks, it usually comes down to one of three ways...either with an LB on a blitz, a coverage sack, or a sack on a qb rollout. When I control the LE, he gets the majority of the sacks....but he doesn't do much unless I'm controlling him.

PP can you get a game in tonight?

phattymatty · April 05, 2010, 03:43:55 PM

where we at dildos? we got our game in over the weekend.

mussa · April 05, 2010, 06:13:02 PM

waiting on coldasnyte and jpeso to get their game in. dildos is right

PhillyPhanInDC · April 05, 2010, 07:45:14 PM

My team is dead in the farging water, and I can't trade anyone. B.S.

BTW, does anyone know what the hell happens once the season is done? Do we do a draft? Re-do all the teams? My team, other than the D, is hot garbage. It may be interesting to build it while playing you bastiches....but...there is no scouting, etc.

Problem is our schedules don't match up. We can simulate if he is cool with that.

mussa · April 06, 2010, 02:57:20 PM

DMF I sent coldasnyte your number so you guys can set a time. If you guys don't get it in by Wednesday night, I'll sim it. I'll let him know, he won't care.

PPinDC - I think we had a few people interested in joining and I think Cioldasnyte won't sign back up for it, so I am all for doing the draft over even though I really like my team. It's up to everyone else. We would just need everyone to be able to draft at the same time so it's fair.
