My D's a beast tho ... so post any stories/stats or whaever you have...
Well, Im not gonna give you ALL of the stats...taeks too long..Team: Jacksonville JaguarsSeason: 14thRecord: 13-1Can't check right now, but I know "RB #24" from NCAA has over 1600 yds rushing.
Update on my season... I ended 11-5 and had atleast 6 probowlers. Jamal Lewis also got best RB award. Too bad I lost in the first round in the playoffs against the Bengals. I threw 3 INTs that game... I'm definately drafting a QB in the draft.
Don't make the same stupid mistakes the Ravens have made everytime they draft a QB or you'll get fired like Billick(sp?) might.
I'm getting sick of my franchise cuz if I play on All Pro I shut out the computer every time and if I play on All Madden I can still win but I get crappy rush and pass yards and there are too many turnovers
then learn how to be more conservative, dont go for a 30 yard pass everytime, learn what works in rushes, have a good mix of run and pass plays.About not having enough yards and stuff, run 7 mins w/ accelerated clock you should be fine

Just keep playing until you get the hang of it that's what I did.
I just finished my first preseason game with my fantasy draft-ed team, the San Francisco 49ers. Here's my roster; I'll post what I remember:QB: Daunte Culpepper (sucks in real life, wicked awesome on the game)RB: Julius Jones (a late-round steal if you ask me)FB: Cory Schlesinger (he blocked for Barry... can't get much better than that)WR: Reggie Wayne (all but one of my wide-outs are in contract years...)WR: Brandon Lloyd (...which sucks because they're pretty young, not to mention sick)TE: Jason Witten (a young, massive guy who came up big in my first preseason game)DE: Robert Mathis... can't remember the other guyDT: Mike Patterson and some Zgonia guy from MiamiOLB: Junior Seau, Marcus Washington, Chris ClaiborneCB: Like... half of my guys here are formerly of IndianapolisFS: Forgot... I do remember that he used to play for Miami, thoughSS: Roy Williams, baby
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (bravest @ Nov 9 2005, 12:49 PM)</div><div class='quotemain'>FS: Forgot... I do remember that he used to play for Miami, though</div> Sean Taylor?
No, I would have remembered that. After I got home and played a game, it's Brock Marion... Interesting thing about him and that last game I just played, too. He fumbled the ball on a kickoff return in the second half of my second preseason game of the season, so naturally I was pissed. I was up by 10 over the Denver Broncos (who's best player is Tomlinson, but have no decent quarterback whatsoever), and giving the ball back to Denver in the final minutes of the game wasn't a smooth move on Marion's part. Luckly for him and me, he picked off the next pass his way in the endzone, which led to a drive by Drew Henson that helped form a 31-10 victory over the Broncos.I am currently 1-1-0 in preseason (on All-Pro). EDIT: Sean Taylor has never even played for the Dolphins, has he? EDITx2: Whoops, I just realized that you meant the Miami Hurricanes... Nope, Dophins. I do have Reggie Wayne, though, who played for the 'Canes.
Beginning my third season today, still 0-0 at this pointColtsTeam additions: - Meaningless 70 Overall Free Agents I needed to sign- Drafted now 85 Overall Computer-Simulated WR John Barton- Marlin Jackson is now 91 Overall, Nick Harper 91, Other two CBs 87,85, no one completes passes on usNo roster losses to dateNew Stadium set to be built a few years from now: Indianapolis ColosseumSweetest move: Brett Farve during last season signed with Baltimore, who won 14 games, Farve finished 3rd in MVP voting, great stuff. Lost in playoffs
Started a new season with the Miami Dolphins. So far I'm 3-0 and my D hasn't allowed a single rushing or passing TD. I start Ricky Williams too.. I'll give an update once I do a few more games.
I was thinking of starting a new franchise but I decided to wait until they update the roster online cuz so much stuff has happened in the league recently, like no T.O. on the Eagles, Culpepper out for the year, Patten out for the year on the Redskins, Griese out for the Bucs, etc...I just don't wanna start a new one now cuz I will wanna start a new one with the new rosters
I'm 8-0 in Superstar Mode. My last three games however have been close as hell, with late game touchdown sealing the deal. I'm in my 3rd season, and there's this one dude who was Computer Made for the Draft and plays for the Cheifs, who is a 90 Overall QB and has thrown 16 Touchdowns to just 4 Interceptions 8 Games in. God teams are getting good in my Franchise Mode... Argh
I just quit my 3rd Season. I won the super bowl in my second against the Redskins, 74-0. Jeb Putzier had over 200 yards, 13 receptions, and 4 touchdowns in that game.Jake had over 350 yards passing, 25-37, 5 passing touchdowns and 1 rushing.Tatum Bell had over 200 yards rushing and 3 TD's. Al Wilson had a pick for a TD.So it was a good game!My team in year one...:QB: Jake PlummerRB: Mike Anderson (Got Injured in the First Game and was out for the season)Tatum BellWR1: Rod SmithWR2: Ashley LelieTE: Jeb PutzierCB1: Lenny Walls CB2: Champ BaileyFS: John LynchSS: Eric BrownI released Mike Anderson in the offseason and picked up Olandis Gary and B.J.

Yes, I play on rookie. It's somewhat fun shutting out sucky teams(Skins), and doing the same to good ones(Colts).
