Bringing the Pride Back (HC 09)

[BrnwsBucksFanNC]

I really like this game! This thread title could pertain to alot of different teams! So I am curious what you would like to follow. I have the Browns team I have been working on. I am just starting my 3rd season with them, never won a playoff game with them yet. So I can pick up with them from the start of 2010. Or I am thinking I would like to do a team that hasnt had much on here about them.

What are your thoughts? Browns from 2010 or someone from scratch?

I am not sure how to use the new table generators so will just generate the info the old way.

If you like the Browns, continue with that one. If you want a new start, pick another team.All things being equal, I'd rather continue an ongoing dynasty unless I want a different playbook or a different sort of coach. Generators aren't too hard-here's how I do mine. I print out the relevant table or box score, play the game and fill out the data. go to Dynasty tab-Generate Dynasty Generators, enter my data, and press create table. The only hard part is the html code-you highlight the code,copy the highlighted code, paste it into where I want the table/box score in my dynasty post, and there you go!

I think I am going to continue with the Browns team I have. I simmed the first year and ended up 8-8. I redid the coaching staff completely. I simmed the 2nd season games, I went 13-4 and lost in the 1st round of the playoffs to the Bengals.

Here is the coaching info:

HC: Me (24) I am working on getting Charisma, trying to build up the general coaching skills

OC: Chudzinski (66) Concentrating on playbook training for now

DC: Mike Singletary (85) Once again, playbook training

ST: Harbaugh (48) Performance, level 3 is my next goal

QB: Musgrave (47) Learning, level 4 is the next skill I want for him

RB: Caldwell (89) I want Intangibles, level 3 next for him

WR: M Johnson (63) Working on Learning, level 4

OL: Marshall (76) I want Chemistry, level 4 next. I am not sure if this actually helps, but i want to be able to keep my o-line intact

LB: Pepper Johnson (58) Learning, level 3. Glad to have gotten him.

DB: John Lynch (36) Performance, level 4. Great secondary coach for me.

DL: Spangler (31) Physical Development 4. Lots of potential.

GM: Corsetti (67) Small School Insider. I know this is kind of cheesing...but I dont do any IRs so I need access to as much info as possible. Never seen this guys name before but wow, lots of potential.

TR: Quartermann (76) Working on cardio training.

A really good staff. I've got Caldwell as QBC, and I will warn you that he will leave if you don't promote him to OC. It's been a real trial for me to try and keep him on the last couple of years as QBC.One way or another, I'll have to fire him unless my OC Heimerdinger retires.

Just to bring everything up to date, I played the Pre-season games and went 3-1, lost to the Colts in OT.

I did have 2 good finds on the FA wire right before the season began, MLB Gino King (83/91) and RB Adrian Joseph, Jr (85/95). King got to play the last pre-season game so he was able to learn some plays. Joseph was rotated in for some of the plays in the first game and was adequate. I am curious to see how he progresses.

Owner expected me to finish below 500, promised to get to the playoffs. There are still some problems with this team (running game!) before I think they can win it all.
