Got my game in. Sanchez broke Marino's single season passing record. I think he may have broke the single season TD record too. Gholston had 4 or 5 sacks, a safety, 2 forced fumbles and returned one 80 yards for a TD. Ahhh one can only dream.
Just got my game in, finished 16-0 with a 47-17 win over Seattle. I had this one play where Chris Johnson broke loose for 60ish yards and I dove into the end zone because another guy was closing in on a tackle, and it said I fumbled it out of bounds into the end zone for a touch back for Seattle. Of course the play wasn't challengable (I checked replay and it definitely was a TD). At least he finished with over 2000 yards, I started out slow with him too. How are we going to vote for the MVP and things? Are we just going to cast our votes here, and should we not be able to vote on our own player? MVP: OPOY: DPOY: ROY: OROY: DROY: Comeback Player of the Year: something like that?
Playoffs have begun! Steelers and Eagles are the only human controlled teams with games in the first round. Steelers are currently in the 3rd quarter of their game, so Mack play as soon as possible. As for the awards, I'm not sure if the CPU awards them or not. If not we could do a vote here if people were interested.
Vince Young got injured and missed the whole second half of my last game, hopefully he's ok (I'm pretty sure it said it was just for that game). Collins came in and lit Seattle up with a 145 QB rating and 3 TDs though. I love my receivers in Cook, Britt, and Gage, they are all young and can't wait for the progression of them, they break soo many tackles.
NFC: Eagles (Mack) @ Cowboys (devil) Packers @ Vikings (pearljam721) AFC: Steelers (WombatPride) @ Jets (WSW) Colts @ Titans (jets624) I noticed that the two human games in the first round were much closer than the usual games against the CPU, so I'm wondering if they ratchet it up in the playoffs.
Thanks, I wonder if I should risk Chris Johnson returning my kicks/punts in the playoffs, he would obviously be the best I have but I haven't used him yet because I can't risk him getting injured.
devil - can you do me a favor and see when WombatPride can play? I have today off and will probably be available tomorrow too.
I play a lot of close games to the CPU because McNabb and Vick love to throw the football to the wrong team... In this one, I was blowing out the Panthers, then Steve Smith broke a tackle in the secondary to make it a 2 score game. They got the onsides kick, I sent a blitz, and their crappy tight end burned my LB, and all of a sudden a 26-7 game was 26-21.
I'm about to go finish up Christmas shopping, but my party tonight was canceled due to the snow, so I'll be on later this afternoon or tonight. If you're around send me something on AIM and if I'm home I'll be able to play.
