Madden NFL 2011

Ravens beat Raoul's Chargers 26-20

Ravens threw two picks sixs while Chargers threw three picks

Chargers had a great running game with Ryan Matthews running outside the tackles and ripping up the Ravens.
Ravens tended to go for the long passing game. Rice ran for about seventy yards and Joe Flacco had two long runs for a total of forty three yards to compliment the passing game.
Some good defense on both sides and both had multiple major sacks to force three and outs or defend the red zone

Good game Raoul, very tight and two field goals the difference.

We have to play Kaiche and kilns still, are you two around?

SantryRed

Flying along now. 8 games played so far lads. Fair play.

Yeah it was a good game. Just couldn't get into your endzone. My first drive I had to settle for a field goal on your one yard line :mad:.

Your offence sort of woke up and started destroying my defence with long passes. Really good game though. You did well to take the two 45/46 yard field goals! Well done!

You should have went for it at 4th and goal from the 1. worst case scenario, opposition gets it at their own 1 yard line and you probably get a FG out of it if your Defence is anyway good.

Though I know a lot of people don't like it when you go for it on 4th unless you are really 20 points down in the min.

Rules are rules so thought it better that I stick by them

UnitedIrishman

Dave or McG, around tonight/this evening for a game?

I thought you would be allowed to go for it in this situation though.

"4th Downs: No going for it on 4th down unless the situation calls for it, some specific examples are;

1) Go for it anytime inside the 10 (Broncos kept trying it last weekend so it's not like it's unrealistic)
2) Go for it anytime in the Q4 when behind OR inside opposition 40
3) Go for it anytime when 4th and 1 inside opposition 40
4) Go for it only 1 more time in a given game outside of the rules above"

mikemac

Yep, you could have gone for it Raoul

In the second half you took a time out and then I took a time out too so I go find the post with the rules. Checked them and so I punted

helimachoptor

I'm around for the evening for my games

Not to tread on Santry's toes but if you're up for playing two games this evening I'm free after six. So would be done before ten

Whatever suits

adrian522

How many games are left?

Can everyone post up their record so far,

I finished 3-1.

helimachoptor

Mike and santry should be on from about 7 so if you see me invite me!

helimachoptor

Titans against the ravens has been disconnected twice now, once at kick off and once when (I think it's santry!) the ravens intercepted and were 24-10 up. I'm happy to give the ravens the win

mikemac

Santry is the Falcons and a lot stronger then me

Yep, we're having technical issues

Good game, Chris Johnson ripping me up on the outside and Titans completely shut down my running game. But Ravens had a good passing game which seemed to be working

With the score and Ravens just after taking possession with the INT in the third quarter, I'll take the win
A shame we didn't get it finished

helimachoptor

When I stay on the ground I'm generally fine but in the air I just get picked off mainly due to bad aim good game though up til that point

SantryRed

Will be on in 40 mins helimachoptor

SantryRed

You about mate?

helimachoptor

Nope my bb is toast it seems I havent been able to get back online since my disconnect earlier

SantryRed

unfortunate I'll stay on til 11. Hopefully you can get it sorted!

helimachoptor

I'm still out of action I'll have to put in a call

SantryRed

Unfortunate to hear mate. Lemme know if you hear anything. I assume you tried reseting the router. THat's my plan for all problems :pac:

helimachoptor

santry im up and running, are u around?

SantryRed

Could go right now I suppose. You wanna do it now?

helimachoptor

Give me 10 just finishing a game in my offline franchise

helimachoptor

Santry how much do you charge for lessons!? A schooling for the titans...

The start of the game killed you mate. The 2 picks in the 1st quarter made you chase the game from there and it meant I could drop back and let you run the ball as it wasn't affecting me.

Final score: Falcons 41-3 Titans

SantryRed

Just a bump for this lads.

Raoul, I'm pretty busy this week. You about the weekend to play?

UnitedIrishman

I'll probably be on towards end of the week. Exam on Wednesday and working around it too.

I'm around in Friday evening Raoul, apart from that will have to be Sunday

Penn

Sunday evening, Franchise Mode, Super Bowl.

New Orleans Saints (Me) Vs Pittsburgh Steelers

After a very close game, I scored a touchdown in the final minute to win 27-24 with a halfback wheel route with Reggie Bush for the win. Then, after the celebration cutscenes, when the menu is meant to come up to exit the game, the game froze. Left it for a while, but eventually, the constant cheering of the crowd got to me so I turned it off.

Tonight, I decided to try again. This time, I had an unbelievable game. Steelers got a field goal in the first minute. I then scored 45 points. They got a touchdown, and the game finally ended 66-10 to me. My defense was unstoppable, with Vilma getting 4 sacks (and Ellis and Wheeler got a sack each too), and 8 tackles by Vilma alone. I caused 2 fumbles, and got one interception, but overall, made some amazing deep passes and a great defense. Unbelievable game.

****ing bastard froze again. This time, with one of the players holding up a paper saying 'Champs', just to really rub it in my ****ing face.

Peyton Manning

It always freezes there, you're not alone.

Raoul
