Nice to see the Giants' red zone offense is in midseason form.

I shudder to imagine how much AP is going to go for. I imagine at least one team will be willing to spend a quarter of their budget on him.

This is quite possibly the worst preseason game I've ever seen.
I know, it's only stupid preseason but jesus christ. I normally only watch the starters and will maybe watch for a drive or two of the backups. The starters hardly had the ball the first quarter, looked absolute crap in the 2nd, so they're back out there for the 3rd. Oh yeah, and Jonathan Cooper, the first round OL pick this year, just had what looked like a very serious leg injury. Go Cardinals. |

Coughlin said none of his starters are likely to suit up next week. I dunno...the first team offense looked shit aside from David Wilson. Eli has been horrific this preseason. I know preseason means nothing, etc. but if the O-line and passing game looks that bad in the regular season, it'll be a long year.

Just got Legatron as my Mr. Irrelevant pick. It was a conventional draft (which I now HATE, although at least it's fast). I had the #2 pick so I was sweating Martin vs. Spiller. My friend drafted right behind me so I figured the pick would define both of our seasons. Went Martin, but then he took Charles instead.
But before his second pick, my friend got logged out and it took James Laurinaitis. He got back on in time to take AJ Green and Frank Gore. Then it logged him out again and it took like 4 defensive players in a row. Never seen Yahoo fuck somebody over like that in a conventional draft. He had no pre-draft rankings. It was supposed to just take the highest player available to fill out open spots on his roster and instead it filled out all of his IDP spots, including a few bench spots.

Just tried an mock auction draft. Started off alright until everybody started just autopicking.
Just randomly put an ubsurd amount for a player and bounced. |

You guys draft defensive players rather than whole defenses?
Don't think I could handle all that. |

IDP only sucks if you don't pay attention to the scoring system or are too lazy to keep track of another side of the ball.

Autodrafts kinda suck. Obvs for something like a TPWW one it's necessary but if you're in a draft 'vec broskies doing an online draft is incredibly boring/terrible.
Going to my 2nd big money draft later this afternoon and feeling like I am going to destroy everyone. Legatron is the best. Gonna hit multiple 60 yarders this season. crossrine |

And it's confirmed. Stevie Brown torn ACL. His season is over.
Fuck. Any non-contact knee injury almost always winds up being an ACL tear.

I learned that Matt Leinart is on the Bills. Hate that he hasn't been good in the NFL.

He might have a good chance of staying or become their starter considering both E.J. Manuel (knee) and Kevin Kolb (concussion) are currently hurt.
Bills want Manuel as the season starter but need him to start practicing before Week 1 while the Bills are worried Kolb's recent concussion has the strong chance of being a career ender. |

Could care less about kolb would rather have Leinart than him and that's saying something.
Manuel is still on for week one. Kolbs career is over and Manuel wins the job by default, even though he would have anyways. He has looked good. They only signed Leinart because they need bodies for the last preseason game, and their only healthy qb for that game and practice is Jeff Tuel. They also added Thaddeus Lewis for another arm at practice. |

The plan with Manuel from the start is for him to be back. That's why they put him into surgery on a Sunday right away. Word is he will be back on the practice field this week without pads but won't be ready for the preseason finale but will be full go a week from today to prep for week 1

I really like EJ Manuel as a sleeper for fantasy this year. Madden comes out this week too. Swear to God, football season is my favorite time of year. The summer heat turns to the crisp, cool air and every Sunday, the week starts off with NFL games all day.
Plus Kris P will be silenced on Week 1 and I won't have to hear any bullshit from him until the delusions of grandeur return November 21st. |

Yeah I don't see Bills weren't going to start Manuel regardless. Feel bad for Kolb, never want to see that kind of thing happen to anyone, but there was like a 10% chance he was going to start any games for the Bills barring a Manuel injury

And dammit Madden, don't put Barry on the cover. I don't want to shell out another $60 for your shitty annual game but you keep reeling me back in.

Some people already have Madden. So far I've heard that the losing team gets the huge celebration after the Super Bowl, changing your defensive schemes doesn't actually work (if you change from a base 3-4 to 4-3 and change player positions accordingly, the player ratings will still reflect 3-4 making the feature useless), and even if you relocate your team, you'll still see the old city name all over the place.
Passing on this one unless there's a big patch. I'm still happy with Madden 12. I've played it long enough where Eli has now retired and I have a rookie QB. |

There will be a patch, they probably just haven't released it yet since you aren't supposed to have it before tomorrow. I haven't played more than a couple games in any Madden since like 07 or 08 on PS2 I always end up bored of it after a couple games, but my brother gets it most years and last year I remember him complaining about not being able to change player positions and some other features that you had been able to do for years and they eventually patched it up (not day 1 though). So they always make mistakes like this, but at least they are pretty good about fixing them.
