Time To Pay The Bills

[Macken]

great week with edwards...

[mfbmike]

Just to give you an idea of how ridiculous that Spud Westbrook guy is...



Breaks a 4-5 man gang tackle in the backfield, then another in the open field on his way to that 48 yard td run

[DJ Rhude]

Damn, Edwards beasted that game......that clip board will be glued to Ted Ford's hand Edwards keeps that kind of play up

I'm in awe at how deadly Edwards has become this year. Something clicked. It's hard to explain but the guy is amazing now.

So glad I held out on him and kept the faith. I was so close to heading in another direction on a number of occasions.

trent to evans and bess is looking great man

Evans is the main reason Edwards is having a great season, and vice versa. Evans is having the best season of his career by a longshot.

Amongst the best in the league in receptions and total yards.

Use Owens more...Racist.

Chise is lookin good...I plan on a 3-4 game update if not more on the weekend for my chise.

Racist? lol.

Owens spent 2 years with me before he wanted some crazy 3 year deal. He ended up going to the Chargers for a year, had a great season and looked like he could go 2-3 more years but called it quits. lol.

if you mean terrell owens, he's no longer on the team.

Right-o.

If you look at my DC, WR core looks like this:

1. Lee Evans (85, 97SPD)
2. Davone Bess (85, not incredibly fast but great hands, great route runner)
3. Willie Hollier (84, 90SPD)
4. Devin Hester (79, 99SPD)
5. Seantrel Blakely (74)
6. Mike Thomas (71, out for season)

[DJ Rhude]

Didn't know Evans was that damn fast.....how old is he now?

[mfbmike]

Didn't know Evans was that damn fast.....how old is he now?

5 seasons in, he just hit the big 3-0.

Doesn't look like he's lost a step just yet. He's in his prime and it's showing.

[mfbmike]

Did you draft Bess? or where did he come from?

I'm intrested in recieviers with great hands...Yeah I spelt that wrong

Yeah, got Bess after season 1. He was rated a 79 at the time if I remember correctly. Played the slot for me in season 2 behind Owens/Evans. Earned a huge progression boost which helped me in the decision to let Owens go. He's been great for me ever since, and yeah, like Dylan said, he falls to free agency pretty often in this game for some reason.

Only Hollier and Blakely are madden generated, at least as far as my receivers go.

Week 10 Preview
Sunday, November 17, 1:00 PM @ M & T Stadium

(8-0) @ (3-5)



After taking home the Vince Lombardi for the 2011-12 season, the Ravens sputtered out of the gate going 1-6 in their first 7 games.

They would turn it around though, going on an amazing 8 game winning streak before seeing it snapped in week 17 and finish the season at 9-7, but more importantly, miss out on the postseason.

MLB Ray Lewis and DE Trevor Pryce called it quits after the season and the Ravens still seem to be doing some identity searching.

The Ravens have the offensive weapons to put points up on the board but it's not exactly a simple task to find a leader of the same calibur as Ray Lewis.

Trent Edwards and the BIlls travel to M & T to face the Ravens in their week 10 matchup, looking to keep pace with the San Diego Chargers, who are the only other team in the league that is also undefeated.

Week 11 Preview
Sunday, November 24, 1:00 PM @ Ralph Wilson Stadium

(9-0) vs (6-3)



The Bills have it pretty easy in the AFC East without a doubt but the Jaguars have it really easy. At least the Patriots are over .500.

With the Colts, Texans and Titans are struggling to break even heading into week 11, the Jaguars look to be in prime position to claim the AFC South for the 2nd consecutive year.

The Jaguars have been a thorn in the Bills' side in each of their meetings in recent years. Expect this matchup of division leaders to be no different.

Jaguars Key Additions: WR Joshua Sheed (87), CB Asher Allen (84), CB Derek Cox (83), MLB Johnathan Brownell (78),

Nice win!

What difficulty is this?

Player Skill:

Passing - 13
Rushing - 14
Pass Defense - 13
Rush Defense - 17

Basically a couple notches under All Madden except for rush defense which is "harder" than All-Madden

[RockSteady]

Dude your D is ridiculously good...

19-0? We shall see.

[Vinsane]

Possesion Time: 19:52 | 40:08

Damn, that's a huge difference and they only put up 17.

[mfbmike]

nice second half ya had..

i had that guy seantrel blakely in one of my chises after a season or two in one franchise i did.. he was fast but he had trouble catching for me

He seems alright. But he's no Devin Hester.

As far as the second half goes, my team locked it down. They did the same in this upcoming game as well. But I had a rough 2nd quarter. I'll have that update up tonight.

Dude your D is ridiculously good...

19-0? We shall see.

Defense wins championships. Or so I hope.

Damn, that's a huge difference and they only put up 17.

They would drive down the field, get into our territory and then turn it over. rofl. They were kicking my ass early on. I managed to get a good lick on Flacco. He missed a drive before he came back and then was just horrible.
