Texans 7 - 14 Raiders
On my very first drive I was sacked by Watt then Clowney on a 3 and out. Somehow that was the last time Carr was sacked all game and he shined with his 11 pass attempts(140 yards/1 TD/0 turnovers) and I continue to suck at running. Ryan Mallet and the Texans were tearing me apart at times but 3 interceptions with one coming on my half at the end of the game killed them. Last game that was exactly me so I have empathy man, gg.

Watt and Clowny are not on the Texans in bizzaro league!!!

RG3 comes alive for his best performance of the season so far and throws for 3 TDs while running in another as the Buccs are able to run and pass on the Saints in the Benzdome.

Aaron Rodgers had a rough day as he is victimized by drops from his receiving group all game long, with an interception near the end of the first half. He does lead two spirited drives in the 3rd and 4th quarters to get 14 on the board.

Buccs over Saints, 28-14.

GG D_I. If your WRs dont have those drops we're looking at a different game.

Good game Nagger, sorry I took until the second half for me to finally buckle down and make the game competitive.

Colts fall to the Ravens 21-14. The Ravens jumped out to a 21-0 halftime lead after a Ryan Tannehill pick and Gronkowski and Megatron destroying the usually decent Colts pass defense. Mallet was comfortable in the pocket in the first half only missing a handful of throws, since the Colts could not mount a pass rush of any type. The secondary also did not record any turnovers outside of a very advantageous fumble by Bernard in the 3rd quarter. Tillman got schooled by Megatron on a very important third and long with a circus catch, it was a sight to see.

After halftime the Colts stopped the bleeding and the Ravens got almost too conservative and it came close to costing them the game. They stood strong when it mattered and on the potentially game tying drive Tannehill throws a second pick to Patrick Willis which sealed the game.

The bad - oh my god my offense this week has been dogshit, receivers have been running into each other or dropping sure passes, my offense usually does decent but sputtered very early on.

The good - Maclin finally showed that he can be a productive member of this offense, he got separation when no receiver really could. I'm going to need him when Larry is being double teamed. Thank GOD Jamaal Charles is back next week and I can finally run the ball and really go west coast with this offense. Tannehill isn't the greatest on long throws and I hate having to force those throws.

The ugly - What in the poo poo was Tannehill doing with that pick in the endzone? Bennett was WIDE open and he overthrew him by easily 5 yards right to the safety. I dunno if it's a rhythm thing or not but lately my QB's have been whiffing some really easy throws....Also, did Chase Blackburn die out there?

Next week new offense and hopefully better results!

Matchups!


Xbox_user @ dubious - Nagger's undefeated Ravens come up to a Buccs team that has found it's groove after a crushing Week 1 loss.
Tpotts87 @ danimo25 - The Washington REDACTED are battling in the desert for valuable NFC positioning.
Havoc904 @ geologicw auto - Manziel gonna take a dump on this UNLOVED ABANDONED team.
Cpu @ paperback75 - The Raiders are banking on the second season of Terrelle Pryor being his best as they continue to defy historical expectations of sub .500 seasons.
Cpu @ badlero - A win should keep the Dolphins sitting at 1st in the AFCE.
Thenardpuppy @ cpu - The Panthers are sitting at 3rd, tied with the Falcons in the NFCS. Should be an easy win.
Cpu @ dpcv8 - A win for the Jets could keep them on pace with the Dolphins for division lead. Have we seen the last of Michael Vick in NY?
nasty-niss @ davidbonham - This divisional matchup can have serious implications in a division where the top 3 teams are 4-1.
Da_goob @ cpu - Bears are likely to turn the Falcon's offense into a fine red mist. The only obstacle is Atlanta's pass rush, which has proven effective, and an injured Matthew Stafford.
Mdubbs354 @ cpu - Colts looking to improve to 5-1 and keep the division theirs.


Standings!

I took two user loses and didn't replay one CPU game.

Vick and Gerheart have been benched.

David Wilson's bionic neck is my starting HB. Manuel is my QB.

Took a few weeks to find an offensive playbook that works, finally settled on Washingtons.

I take close losses way harder than I should. Good game, Bonham. I wish the controller rumbled when the pass rush is bearing down on your QB like in other EA football games. I took a few bad sacks that game. I think both our teams are built through the defense and it showed. I had a couple methodical grinding FG drives and Bonham basically just had 2 explosion TD plays. Aside from that there was a lot of punting, turnovers and general ugliness.

Colts move to 5-1 after decimating the Texans 31-3. Tannehill throws for 272 yards and 3 TD's and Jamaal Charles starts off the first game of his season right with 150+ all purpose yards and a rushing TD. Larry Fitzgerald records his sixth game in a row with a TD, and adds 42 yards to his yearly total.

Russell Wilson ran like his life depended on it and took six sacks and gave up two picks to the surprising Colts D. This defense has been playing as a very well oiled machine in the second half of games and this one was no different. The next three games are against opponents with a combined three wins, so the Colts look poised continue the season strong.

That last drive was really intense, I definitely felt like every playcall could make or break the game. I don't like to blitz much but your OL is really solid. I think if you ran twice and sent the FG unit out you would have won, considering the cannon your kicker was sporting.

yep, thats exactly my takeaway from that last drive. When I got to your 40 yard line with roughly 30 seconds left and a timeout in my pocket I should have called a HB draw from the shotgun and just play for the long FG. Instead I drop back to pass, get an unexpected blitz and take a sack that kills my drive.

Cowboys 17 - Seahawks 10

All three of Manziel's picks were due to my WRs slipping in the rain. This kept the Seahawks in the game alot more than they should have been. I also couldn't get a run game going at all, it just really felt like nothing was clicking on offense. The best thing that happened was Demarcus Ware injuring Andrew Luck on a sack in the 1st quarter that kept him out until the 4th. That led to Ryan Fitzpatrick coming in and being a dingus (immediatly throwing a pick).

I also thought that my defense would have a monster game against that offensive line (with the highest rated started at like 75), but I was having trouble getting any pressure. It really opened up my eyes to how little o-lines rating can mean in this year's game.

I'm just happy to get out of that game with a win and no injuries. There were a few huge sacks that Manziel took that he looked like he could have got hurt going down.
