Totally.

On the int I had enough time to get in position and hold triangle. Vontae won the jumpball.

The first of those fumbles was off a corner blitz. You had ground up the whole first quarter so I called time out. I then started zero/single high blitzing in the redzone to either get a turnover or give up a td. On that play, i dialed up one that brought all my strongside defenders which looked like a td off the read until vontae came flying in so you can't totally blame yourself. If you had pass audibled like a Z fade it would have been td. I fumble way more on scrambles than designed runs (twice in that game, one which sat there forever)

My favorite play was when i brought a rolling zone blitz that blew up the backfield then you triple option flipped the ball for a 1st down

Oh yeah I saw like 3 guys coming straight for Tannehill so I couldn't lateral fast enough. If you'd gotten there faster, it'd have been a lateral fumble from poor aim. I caught on to a couple of your blitzing schemes near the end (see: Rishard Matthews TD)

There really don't seem to be many option pass play choices, otherwise, I'd do a triple option pass play and gently caress everyone's poo poo up every time. Only way you're beating me is if you send everyone at Tan the Mannehill. Set up a second mobile QB as my pitch and pass from him. Man, I think I just innovated football.

What if the center hiked the ball forward



If I know anything about Madden, it's how to destroy Tannehill

E: ok I meant Dalton but I'll crush Tannehill too and also I might be still drunk from the Pats game

Yeah it's hot garbage that WRs can't be changed to RB, TE and QB. I'm wondering if I can sub him in as QB in a wildcat formation of sorts, I'm pretty sure you can use the sub menu at the play calling to use a WR as QB there but who knows I also haven't played a game since Wednesday so I've forgotten half of the 3000 menus

GG Oberst. You drove up & down the field on me, that INT really killed you. Ironic that it was Lawson, as I was spending most of my defensive playcalling time flipping through the Bills lovely playbook trying to find plays where he either QB spied or blitzed because he's so bad at coverage I didn't want him on Olsen.

Mora loving rules. I have no idea how my D kept stuffing Lynch. I had a pretty hard time covering you over the middle though and if it wasn't for me dropping 4 in the end zone on passing plays in my red zone I think the game would've been a lot closer. You played better D than you give yourself credit for, I had two very short scoring drives and stalled out most of the rest of the way

E: also this is the first game I've played sober in these leagues. Do the players always move that fast?
