Warrior General Games

After the stomping he put on us today, I'm gonna go ahead and vote for Byron Hammond of Portland. I don't care what he does the rest of the season, we're probably gonna need therapy to get this one out of our minds.

Unreal performance. I'd say good game to Portland but the Christians didn't shake hands with the lions in the Coliseum.

hahahah... Yah byron has been unconsious latley... our entire team is really playing great right now...

I'll have to see what we can stir up for him next.

bring it.

Nothing against Byron, but you know there is a problem with the sim if any player has 16 touchdowns in 3 games.

I'd say the same if I managed to pick off 16 passes in 3 games as well as Dweezil.

8 of those in the last game...not neccessarily anything wrong, just one favorable game. otherwise i was hitting an average of 4 tds a game and i've seen other RBs last season do better.
nice try calling Byron a fluke tho.

what can i say? the boy likes to run into the endzone.

we'll see what the rest of the season holds before making any MVP predictions. there's a couple other guys out there doiong pretty well.

What goes around comes around. Last season running games and power backs were at a significant disadvantage. This year the updates in the game have turned the tables. Advantage Portland and their star HB (the other ones pretty damn good too).

Learn, adjust, get over it. Us Death Stars are planning on building a brick wall in front of the endzone.

Byron wears an extra large set of shoulderpads with dynamite packedinto it for just such an occasion.

4 td's per game * 16 games = 64 TD's in a single season.

Most touchdowns in a single season = 31

I'm just saying there is something wonky with the sim. Even players with 40+ tackling and 40+ strength are missing tackles when set to wrap up. Also, coverage/intercept pathing for many defenders = screwed up. If you watch the replays a lot of times a player will jet downfield and then curve to catch the player they were 'pursuing' so they can hit them from the front. That's bad pathing/ai.

Lots of little things. I'm not hating on Byron, just stating that getting what is close to the half NFL's best TD total in just 1/5th of the season is a little strange and evidence that there is still tweaking/work that needs to be done in the sim engines.

Well byron Won the rushing title is season 1, was 2nd in season 2, and looks to be off to a good start this year... So i would call him a fluke.. that guy is great, but no one is great with out 10 other supporting members.. We just have a great team and a great bunch of guys... Should be a fun game this weekend, at least for portland...

nah there was a guy last year in some league (not sure which) who racked up 41 TDs with his running back. that 4 TDs thing isn't going to last, byron just had some good first games.

altho if it DOES last, ima call mulligan on the whole season. cuz that is borked.

and seriously, i have some D linemen who started smokin at the end of last season and this year they can't BUY a tackle, let alone a hurry or sack.

I whined in the suggestions forum about the fact that 1000 teams are piling on every single FA...and that maybe players ought to have a smaller pool of teams to sign to. I got told that this isn't an NFL game...

So...maybe Bort wants players to get 64 TDs a season. I don't know.

oooh...just had an idea...what if , when players are created, they have to choose a region to play in and their initial contract can only come from a team in that region?

(barring D league teams of course)

That's kind of what I had in mind. In the NFL...a player gets 32 teams to compete over him...and you don't have all the farm team/pro team crap going on like what's starting to happen now.

If they want to make this game right, they can.

Wanna know the sad thing? We set it to wrap-up cuz of the beating he threw down in the first two games. and he still slashed through us like a lightsaber through warm butter.

At least we kept speedy under 100 i believe. That one's almost as dangerous with his cutbacks and speed.
