Done.

This is going to sound silly since I won on a FG in OT lol, but I think we would benefit from either bumping the difficulty up one, or turning the game speed to normal cause the game is a bit easy. Maybe everyone else feels differently, no biggie just throwing it out there.

Only reason I didn't win by more is because i went coaches play every play, and the coach thought it was a good idea to give Sproles 25 HB dives while Brees was dominating through the air :lol:

Sounds like a plan.

Fun shit so far, did a little scouting, pretty cool feature.

I'm sure most guys will say the same, but never wait on me. Advance any time you want lol.

Though, the little 1 hour warnings are nice to have, I wouldn't have played my game without it today. :)

The "It's too easy" Saints lose on the road to the Panthers. :lol:


In my defense, I had 3 fumbles lost either inside or near the Panthers 20 yard line, and 1 INT inside the 5.

Trailed 15-3 2nd half, cut it to 15-10. Then hit an 80 yard TD pass at the 2 min. warning and made the 2pt conversion, 18-15.

Then "watched" Cam pick apart my defense via super sim and scored a TD with :15 left.

Loving this so far.

I think it's perfect right now but can see bumping if we all get a little more used to it and better.

I'll get my game in tomorrow most likely

Completely agree.

That being said, my preseason game passing was sooooo easy even with McCown. Game 1 against the Redskins, also easy even though the gameplan had me run run running, i had 350 passing or something and honestly thought I'd throw for 5000+ easily if I played every game, which I probably won't.

But this game against Carolina was completely different. I probably do get close to 300 passing without the 3 fumbles, but they definitely did some things to slow me up. Lots of blitz and bumps that I wasn't ready for. Got sacked a few times, Brees fumbled one of em. If it's more like that, it'll be solid.

Eagles fall behind by 24 and rally to get it down to 8 but can't get Ravens off the field and pick up their first loss of the season

Rice had 2 85+ yard td's i think (i was super simming). when they recoverd my supersim onside kick i tried to play defense and i wasn't able to use my timeouts even tho it showed 3 available. so Flacco just kneeled and the game ended. it might be something with supersim that causes that so just be aware going forward.

Colts with an ugly loss to the Vikings. Andrew Luck tossed 5 interceptions but got no help from his WR's. Four of the INTs were the result of Colts WRs tipping or dropping a pass and allowing Vikings defenders to pick them off. Numerous receivers dropped easily catchable passes as well. The only reliable receiver was Reggie Wayne who hauled in 15 catches. TO was injured on the very first play of the game.
