    That was breaking? Thanks for the update. But I had expected that for a month!

    New England's underrated Opportunistic Defense

    If only the NE coaches knew as little about our defense as their fans. I thought the secret about this team was out. What's funny is that I am not too confident right now about the overall game - our offense could very easily struggle even against their defense. Sort of a very-light-object vs...

    Chip Kellys influence on the NFL.. specifically the Patriots

    Holmgren wanted to keep his guys in rhythm and give his QB maximum time to see the field/take advantage of an error by the defense. It wasn't about wearing out a defense. Chip just wants to get to the next play already.

    Ohio State's 3rd string QB tweets:

    Lets be honest, I think we've all had classes we were less than interested in. I understand the frustration. Everyone in my generation should know that what you put on the internet can be read anywhere, by anyone, including future bosses and the media. That's true x 100 if you're an Ohio State...

    Seneca -> Largent

    Didn't we avoid placing Seneca as the holder on FG attempts because of his hands? I think he had the all-around athleticism but I'm not sure he had starting WR type hands.

    West Virginia Vs Texas

    Brown is either a great "face of the program", or he's a master recruiter. Or both. Somehow he gets who he wants in Texas, and while he has a great recruiting homeland, it takes some chops to bring in the classes he does. He seems to have a very stable program. There is a good culture there...

    All 5 rookie Qbs: what the numbers really say

    Just replaced references to players to references to their team, and changed "he" to "they". I could've just swapped out names and positions if I had replaced them with, say, every team's LT. The underlined part is the only part that wouldn't apply to teams but actually has to be about a...

    12th man vote: QB for game 5? (Bumped)

    While I believe in letting rookie QBs spend a year on the bench, I can't disagree a whole lot with what we did given our QB situation and how good Wilson looked in (completely meaningless and way overvalued) the preseason. The 2nd best thing to letting a rookie ride the bench is starting early...

    Can the Hawks afford Irvin to be a project?

    I'm wondering the same thing. Not because I dislike Irvin. I like him a lot, and I think he'll be a good player. I'm speaking entirely in hypotheticals here, not making projections. For 2012, yeah, we need him now. 1st round picks don't need to start, but they need to at least make some big...

    Madden 13...

    Haha, unlike NBA, we run similar Madden offenses. I'm using the Texans playbook with my Titans CCM. I've had really mixed results with the running game. I have two "franchises", Titans and Hawks. In theory, both should be able to run fine. I did okay with Seattle in the 3 games I've played on...

    Madden 13...

    EA needs to allow custom rosters in CCM/patch in 2011's franchise mode. Even if you don't allow created players, at least let us edit your craptactular ratings.

    Madden 13...

    It seems better at first glance. Haven't drafted anyone yet. You get a certain number of points. You use those points to unlock the ratings for a particular attribute like Speed, Intangibles, Catch In Traffic, etc. So you pick what you unlock. It seems a lot better IMO. Plus, you get "XP" you...

    Madden 13...

    Depends. If you don't play franchise mode, the gameplay is improved IMO. If you play franchise mode a lot, create players, used the "Superstar" mode in last year's madden and liked it, etc... then this version sucks. BTW, I will sell mine to you if interested. PM if you want.

    Madden 13...

    Same. Some of my best Madden memories are with my old roommate, playing safeties for the Browns a couple years back. We'd hold them to 7 points on O, score a D touchdown, and still lose. 21-7. So frustrating but so much fun. Now we can't do that. I wish they'd have kept basic franchise mode...

    Maybe put 360 in the title? Otherwise I'm going to click this a thousand times.

    Madden 13...

    Using Denver's playbook with Seattle (RW as the starter), I had no problem running the ball last night and only threw 2 picks in 2 games. However, I am downright livid that you can't use custom rosters in "Connected Career Mode", even offline. I'm stuck using EA's TERRIBLE roster forever? I...

    Arena Deal thread: UPDATE: DEAL PASSED AND SIGNED OFF!!!

    I'm not arguing with you, Chris, but that's just stupid. By the council. Key Arena isn't really a good venue for anything - not a good NBA arena, a poor concert venue, not profitable even without the new arena, etc. Once the new arena is built, why keep it around? Find another use for that land...
