Beat the Colts 31-24 on the road.

I’ll give it a few more games but if the penalties are as bad as they were in that game, I’m out. I play Madden for fun, not to try and get it exactly like the NFL. At one point the Colts had a false start on 3 consecutive plays...

Apart from that, Wentz 3 TD’s, 0 INT’s. I knocked Andrew Luck out of the game, only for Kessler to come in and throw for 350 yards, 3 TD’s at a rating of 147.4 :drunk:

You might need to buy the discipline trait for your OL players. I only had 2 flags on my team, neither were accepted. and drew 5 or so on Arizona.

It wasn’t my team. I only gave away 3 penalties.

It’s no fun having the opposition march you up the field while not needing to do anything. The Colts had like 9 penalties for 100+ yards.

Could also be because the Colts are a bad team? A few others (myself included) have used these sliders offline, I notice bad teams have bad discipline

They weren’t great. Only just beat them in the end. Was 28-3 up, won 31-24 in the end. Some real Madden cheese going on in the 4th haha.

penalties are a part of football, next game you'll probably cop it on your end

I’m 3-0, had nothing to do with it haha. I’m not worried about the CPU, the penalties take away from the fun of it. Just my opinion obviously but I don’t play Madden so I can get facemask penalties.

I'm 12 games into my offline league at 10-2
Face masks seem high
False starts as a total seem ok, but I've had situations like yours where I'll get 3 in a row after not getting one for a full game.
And I've only had 3 dpis all year. 2 in one game and 1 today.
Most annoying thing is you're making a beeline for the ball and pressing triangle to go for the pick, then the player deviates and cuts off the wr. Forcing the dpi call.

Once I go through the full season I'll give full stats.
Things seem good on the most part. My passing game is high and running game low but that caused by a shitty patriots playbook with shit run plays. Julio Jones is also on track to smash the record for yards by maybe 200 yards. While clay Matthews already has the NFL record for sacks in a season.

I really can't play madden without weed

was up 24-7 leading into the 4th after hit sticking stafford in the 2nd. theyre backup was 1-5 for 16 yards 1 interception.

then he comes into the 4th with a Tom Brady arm and finished with something like 9-14 152 yards and 2 TDs

was 24-21 with 2 mins left, I end up getting a field goal but yeah what's happened. it's like they've patched in a god mode for any cpu QB in the 4th
