Advanced to the Divisional Round

Pittsburgh @ Cincinnati (User v. CPU)
Dallas @ Philadelphia (User v. User)
Tennessee @ New England (User v. User)
Chicago @ Arizona (User v. User)

I'll advance once all games are done. Fanatic, don't go too crazy trying to get Tennessee to play. If you can't get him for a couple of days I'll just boot him. Basebuck, we're up (again), but you need to rejoin the franchise. That's assuming you still want to, of course.

So Wood... what is your schedule looking like this week? I do feel the need to take a half day off from work (I so need a break) So what is your Wednesday/Thursday/Friday looking like?

Great freakin game Fanatic.

I went to a 4th CB and a 3-3 look, shift over the DB's and make it look like a more of a 3-4. Also sent some really wierd blitzes. Drop a couple DE's into coverage and that pick on the goal line really gave me the momentum I needed.

Those two picks you threw were against Cover 2, I was praying you were going for the short game and that's what really payed off in the end.

Galloway over the middle is so damn frustrating though. So I tossed in a little cover 1 press and move the safety down but you picked up on it and went outside.

Final Tennesee 34 New England 28

2nd half shutout after he toss a bomb with time expiring at the half.

Both picks were intercepted through the receiver, the first one was a bad read and should have been intercepted but the second one in the endzone was frustrating. Then the Brady fumble that I just watched you win because the fight for fumble feature (name?) was on and I wasn't expecting it.

Piece of advice, what works in the first half, go away from in the second and do nothing but pass. Great strategy on my part. My run defense is porous.

When I saw the flood 3 on the right I dropped the DE I was playing and was waiting for the slant, went to the outside and Finnegan made the play on it.

After you shanked Vanden Bosh off the first time I was convinced Brady was unstoppable.

Dont take this the wrong way, but that has to be one of the luckiest games for my opposition I've ever seen. Brady breaking tackles from from Pro-Bowl DE's. The bomb to Moss, then the two tipped passes that both Welker and Galloway came down with were insanity. Then top it off with the fact that my TE fumbles late in the 4th for my 1st TO really had my believing you just couldn't lose.

Yeah, I realized I wasn't getting much on my inside running game, those tosses were being shut down. So I decided to run a few counters strongside then lo' and behold I started finding running room.

I really didnt do to much of the power run game in the 1st half though, and I think it would have really helped save me early on, when I went with the
I: double left formation I thought I really had you on your toes between the power O, counter and the couple of play actions I went with.

The few times I went play action and hit my tight end I thought for sure I was sacked, but my line help up just long enough that made Vince somewhat effective.

Later on down the road I know I'm going to have to get VY out on the edge more with my rollouts and really make people frustrated, but the TE was there quite a bit and I took it.

My 2nd possession when it was 3rd & 6 I didnt see the QB spy coming. I looked at my 1st and 2nd reads then before I knew it the pocket was on me so I bolted up the middle and your backer just crushed me.

What it came down to was turnovers. I was +2 in that dept. otherwise I dont think I win this game.

Flattering, but Madden and NCAA are completely different for me. Madden feels like I am playing basketball left handed. I can fake it for awhile, but eventually it will catch up to me.
