Everyone should probably root for my failure.

What makes you think we aren't?
---

Because I spend over 100 hours of my life on each season...
---

I wasn't being serious, please don't take it to heart.

I knew i should have used an emoticon...
---

I didn't think you were being serious, but I still felt like giving a honest response
---

We're all just trying to beat KCF at his own game.

Its like Beat Bobby Flay for Madden 2005.

The only user who suffered an injury that required a roster move has been notified and the issue has been taken care of. I will now send out PMs for those who suffered injuries that do not require any action.
---

I guess that I only needed to send out one PM
---

Hurray for no new injuries and a victory! Go Bills!

Interesting Note: The Hawks are garbage.

Hey KCF, are you leaning more towards the run this season? Or is it just kind of working out that way
---

I have always ran a balanced offense that has never veered further than 54-46 in any direction. Last season, I was more of a running team, but Keller had a prolific YPA that allowed him to lead the NFL in passing yards.

As for this season, I am more of a passing offense, but Lewis has just been on fire for the five or so weeks that I have employed him.
---

Pats have signed G Toniu Fonoti to a 1 year deal. He and Mike Otto are still on the free agent sheet, but I will remove them later.

I think sometimes the AI just ignores your input anyway. When I had Courtney Lewis I had him and Jamario Thomas as a 40/60 split or something similar (maybe 35/65) with a run heavy offense. What actually happened was Thomas got 408 carries and Lewis got 50. I had wanted them to share so I could keep both happy but Madden said nope! So I had to release Lewis which was of course followed by Thomas getting injured for the full year basically

Ouch, Cutler tossing TDs on his former team. Ugh 3-5, not ideal.
---

I am ecstatic to be leading the division so far, I really did not expect to win that game.

You need to start higher-rated players to keep them in good spirits. Merely playing them isn't good enough.
---

Didn't know that but either way 408/50 is not remotely close to the split I had set in my strategy. Doesn't bother me, was just posting it to show Madden doesn't always follow the strat you set.

I realized that I was the only person in live chat that lost last night
---

I didn't wanna say it lol
---

Sim at usual time? 9? Earlier?

Let's say 8:30 ET

In spreadsheet momentarily

Spreadsheet is fully updated. One user suffered an injury that requires a roster move, but they were already notified. I should start posting game summaries in a little while.

I look for ward to seeing just how badly the cowboys mauled mr.
