    That was an epic shootout there Luke! He won 31 28 with a field goal in the dying seconds. Great game.

    Anyone else want to play?

    Ya I'll play you;-)

    I was clarifying for the poster above. My honest answer is i have no idea. I just clicked the right stick to throw it away, I knew this worked as i have been in similar situations in offline games. If its illegal I apologise, at least now i know

    well sure if it was illegal would there not have been a penalty called?

    Well I never want to play you again :pac:
    I have no idea how to stop the run game!,I can take solace in the fact I don't have to play you in the franchise

    Yeah... That's how I play... Every game... :o

    No, that was possibly the best performance I've put in on Madden for quite some time. MJD was a wrecking ball, were you run committing? But really thats what he will do if I can give him the ball that often, thanks to my defense I was able to. I tried out a new scheme and I was blown away with how well it worked.

    Thanks again for the game, I've been dying to try out the stuff I've been practising. Sorry it has some choppy spells of lag. Funny moment, did you see my abysmal FG attempt with the score at 7-0? Must have kicked it 10 yards! I went to kick it and the lag meant it didn't register my stick flicking so it had 0 power.

    I'm still trying to learn off defensive plays,I was trying alot of cover 1/cover 2 against the runs which I thought were effective against them but I dunno I guess not.
    The FG shot at the start was mad alrite,I thought it was glitch like in the franchise mode,who knew that would be my high point of the game lol.

    Haha! I would say your last drive there was the highlight, I was running the same D I had been all day because I decided I wanted to be bastard and get the shut-out, you used Manning's accuracy well, bit more time and you were in.

    Yeah run-stopping plays are tough, I normally blitz when I think a run is coming, you did that and got me for a loss a few times, I guess it's just play recognition which comes with time and experience, still terrible at it myself.

    I had a hard time passing all game,the first few I threw were caught but 1 of your defenders came in every time and nailed them and they ended up dropping them.After that my recievers never seem to get their runs going to get free,they were being blocked and stuff which lead to me holding onto the ball too long with manning and eventually getting nailed.
    Blitz's? I actually thought they were used for pass plays :eek:

    Only started playing this online yesterday, played two games and won them fairly comfortably. Then I lost two in row, got seriously hammered in one, lost 60-14. I seem to be having serious trouble stopping runs.

    Plus this guy was onside and squib kicking every time just to rub it in. Prick.

    Good game pudsy,I quite enjoyed that.
    I was tyring out some new defense and I actually thought it did alrite despite the score.
    I think I pretty much lost the game on my own offense,6 interceptions and and fumbles which all lead to scores.
    I was throwing some mad stuff:pac:
