EWBFL (X360)

[Tits McGee]

Was a good game. Steven Jackson had a MVP performance. That pick in the endzone on me really had me hurting the first half.

[Cactus Drags]

Biggz, you're free to play the AI. down to 9 user teams, which sucks. Probably going down to 8 as it doesn't look like Fitzy's interested anymore, despite being allowed to switch teams.

[Meacon Keaton]

I'm going to play my game tonight. I've been rather sick all week, and with Modern Warfare 2 being released, I haven't really had the motivation to play it. But it will be played tonight! (or tomorrow morning!)

[EddieRuckus]

Man, either I'm finally getting into a good rhythm with this game or I had two games where the defense was horrible. I should not be able to throw 5 and run one in with Hasselbeck AND throw one with Seneca Wallace in one game.

it seems to me the AI gets worse as the season progresses

[Meacon Keaton]

I just had the opposite happen. I had been dominating the CPU's defense with my ground game. But Washington was giving me trouble. Luckily, Orton was up to the challenge and we were actually able to move the ball in the air. The game was closer than the score shows, thanks to a punt return for a touchdown by Eddie Royal with like two seconds left. Defense was dominating, though, we were playing up against Todd "Haha" Collins.

[Rocketbusta]

So, we flipping to week 11 soon?? I'd like to pop in Madden again.

[Cactus Drags]

I'll do it now, sorry.

[Cactus Drags]

Week's rolled, Fitzy's getting the boot next time I log on, Biggz has missed two games now (although they were at least nonconsecutive). Saturday evening is your deadline.

[Rocketbusta]

Thank you sir, looking forward to another winning week of Texans football.

Yeah.

[Cactus Drags]

I didn't do a week 11 preview last night because there are no user/user games, and no bye weeks. At some point soon, I'll get round to doing another league round-up with the stats leaders and that.

[Cactus Drags]

Just beat the Eagles 32-30 in somewhat of a shootout by my standards, i.e. throwing for more than 200 yards and not getting picked 5 times

Eagles are without McNabb who's out three more weeks with a broken arm, Vick was generally ineffective, although I wasn't able to get any sacks. Briggs saved the game on a last minute INT that killed off a promising Eagles drive. Some good performances from my receivers, Earl Bennett (4 catches, 107yds, 1 TD) had what should have been a 50+ yard TD catch after beautifully spinning two Eagles into the ground, but he came up a nose short as Ellis Hobbs tripped him at the 1. Juaqin Iglesias also had a big catch and run, for 41 yards, and he managed to hit paydirt as well. Nice day for Forte, 80 yards off of 18 carries and 2 TDs, bit quiet in terms of yardage for him really.

I got cocky against the lowly Bucs after going up 28-6 but I pushed the pass and threw 3 bad INT's and they almost made a comeback but after a late 4th and goal stand by our D, Saints finish it 28-23. Brees had a season high 351 yards and 3 TD's, with Colston also having a big game 149 yards and a td.

fun fact: Reggie Bush leads the league in rushing td's and might in overall td's with his receptions and returns.

I barely beat the Cardinals with a 24-21 victory. My offense was obsolete except for Steven Jackson who posted decent rushing numbers. I had 2 pick 6's which kept me in the game.

[Rocketbusta]

31-17 win over the Titans in Houston. Game was even until the end of the third quarter when the defense finally got some stops and Schaub stopped getting picked off. A couple more wins and should have my playoff ticket punched.

[Your Mom]

Laid a beating on the 49ers and got 50 gamerscore as well

[Meacon Keaton]

Beat the Chargers. Moreno finally had a BIG day for me breaking a 68-yard run, and then a thirty-some yard run for a touchdown. He had like nine carries for a hundred-and fourty or so yards. My defense has been awesome for me all season. We even had a pick-six in this last one, which almost never happens with me.

[Cactus Drags]

Hm, seems Biggz has quit. Which means that all games have been played, so we roll to week 12, after which I'll post a round-up...if anyone cares >_>

[EddieRuckus]

For sure, I always liked your little write-ups. Though I'm not too sure if anyone cares about Hasselbeck already having over 30 touchdown passes >_>

[Cactus Drags]

Just lost 31-28 in an overtime clash with the Vikings. I didn't play well, but my comeback was severely hampered by horrible luck. For example, I had the Vikes on the ropes in their own half in the fourth quarter, 3rd down, Tillman jumps up to pick the pass off, bobbles it, it bounces off his knee and Berrian scoops it up for a first down. No running game to speak of whatsoever, and although Cutler threw for over 200 yards for once, 60+ of those came on the final drive to tie the game. Ugly.
