btw, how cool is this - I broke the all-time single game rushing record with Jamal Lewis vs. the KC Chiefs in week 4... guess how many yards? 295 yards. Exact same total he had after breaking the record vs. Cleveland last week.





OMG Chodite..............On the very day Lewis broke the record, I beat him to it with Charlie Garner who ran for 308. Wild.

Any back in the game.




Haven't figured out how to play D yet?? I dont know why you guys have so much trouble...I rarely give up 100 yards rushing and if I do its a marquee guy. I play as the steelers on all-pro no sliders, just learn how to pick the right play and you'll stop a back...most likely not on the first hit but you'll have reinforcments if you pick the right plays.













One last time guys. When was the last NFL team you saw shut down the run on a consistent basis with the dime/nickel?? No team is the answer.


What is the base D teams play?? 4-3, 3-4, or bear is the answer.

When was the last time you saw a CB tackle ricky? Almost never=answer.

When was the last time you saw someone dive tackle (at a bad angle) bettis, ricky,etc. without squaring up??? Never.

Just like in the NFL..THIS IS A RUN BASED GAME. The first of its kind, truely REVOLUTIONARY!!! Stop complaining. You wanted SIM they gave you SIM. Act like you are a coach in the NFL and you too can stop the run.

Re: Who is toughest running back to stop in this game?

Freaking T.J. Ducket dropped 115 on me! TJ Freaking Duckett! The guy hardly has 5 carries a game in the NFL, but I couldn't stop the loser much. This is only my third or so All-Pro game, so I'm a little worried about facing the marquee backs. I find that shifting the dline and linebackers to one side seems to help a lot (as long as you guess the right side!) I usually control my best linebacker, and I have the most luck when I slide him parallel to the line of scrimmage mirroring where the running back is. I can usually get a good idea of where the running back is going to go out of the backfield by watching either him or the offensive line right as the ball is snapped.

This sounds funny, but James Stewart always tears me up for well over 100 yds.
