Wild Card Matchup Preview
Sunday, January 10, 1:00 PM @ Qualcomm Stadium

(11-5) @ (10-6)



This year was probably Dick Jauron's last chance to end a playoff drought that dates back to 1999 for the Bills but alas, the Bills are playing in mid-January.

The Bills will have there work cut out when they face the San Diego Chargers this Sunday afternoon at Qualcomm in the wild card round.

The Bills offense will likely take care of itself but the focus surrounds the Bills defense coming into this matchup.

If the Bills expect to advance to the divisional round, they will have to find a way to contain a potent Chargers offense.

Expect a high-scoring shootout in this one folks.

Try running a double TE play on Gates, he's tough as hell to guard, unless you plan on sticking a CB on him.

[mfbmike]

Try to take advantage of Chambers being out. I'd say you have the advantage because of that at the receiver position. Good luck against San Diego.

I sure hope so. Thanks

Your season stats are pretty impressive, your defense really got alot of picks, especially McGee and McKelvin, they have been beasting. Hope that Edwards loses the interception bug for the playoffs.

Looking forward to the result of the 49ers and Cowboys game. Good luck in the game, I think if you can contain Tomlinson and don't turn the ball over alot you can win.

EDIT: Can you post or link to the sliders you are using if you like them?

I'm using these with a couple of minor changes to play better to my liking.

Imo, the reason Edwards threw and Mckelvin/Mcgee got so many picks was because of All-Madden difficulty with default sliders lol. I've gotten much more realistic results out using these sliders (even though I've lost my last 2 games against the Falcons/Colts)

I'm also anxious for the results of that niner/boys game. I used to love the games they used to have back in the day when they were both the top dawgs in the NFC.

Try running a double TE play on Gates, he's tough as hell to guard, unless you plan on sticking a CB on him.

I'll keep that in mind.

More than likely play the game tonight after my workout.

Thanks for following guys.

Your sliders are out of whack to tell you the truth. You shouldn't have had 1200+ receiving yards with Owens with only 50-something catches.

On top of that, I can't remember the last quarterback to throw 30+ interceptions in a season and I just checked the last 10 years. Closest to get their was Brett Favre in 2005 and he threw 29, but he's a Hall of Famer so that's the only reason he wasn't benched. The average for a QB who throws the most interceptions is around 21. Edwards would be benched in real life once he threw 20. And with 34 turnovers on interceptions alone, you should have had no more than like 5 wins.

I noticed it too. But the NFL is unpredictable - some of it could happen.

What part are you exactly talking about?

And I'm not trying to destroy your thread or take down your chise, Mike. It's great, but I think some things are unrealistic.

[mfbmike]

I didn't wait to find perfect sliders before starting. I just started right out of the box.

I agree I shouldn't have had as many wins as I did considering how many INT's Edwards threw.

Unfortunately, before finding good sliders, All-Madden by default = lots of interceptions, being able to stop their run easily. It also = you and the cpu both breaking for huge gains on pass plays but being able to pick them off very easily as well.

Once I started using the sliders dizzle posted, results became a lot more realistic.

If you read this chise up to the point where I was up to my 1st regular season game, I thought the results were rediculous myself. I even considered putting this on hold but I wanted to get going.

I put my MLB chise on hold for rosters and I wasn't in the mood to wait to get going in this one.

Since putting in the sliders, I've gone 3-2 (lost last 2 games of regular season to Colts/Falcons), Edwards has thrown a lot less interceptions but on that same token, thrown for a lot less yards as well. Trust me when I say that by default, this game is unrealistic as shit.

As far as Edwards being benched, he was benched for 3 games or so. If you go back, you will see he came into a game that my backup could get no offense going for me. He came in and led the team on a game winning drive (using these new sliders) which gave me faith that he would be capable reassuming the starting role.

So long story short, I agree the beginning of this season may have been unrealistic in some ways. I was just eager to get this rolling.

I wanted to get going and get as far as I could in this before NBA 2k10 drops. Not to mention, I also want to finish up my Tigers season sometime soon as well.

Trust me, I even considered stopping this and starting a new one because these sliders are so much better than the default, which I used up until about week 10. lol. But you of all people should know, I'm probably the last person who starts multiple chises. Once I get going, I'm usually in it for the long haul.
