Not sure.....I'm not archiving games even if it's do-able

I just stream them so the guys in the slider thread can watch if they want and sometimes someone will give you some help as to playcall, etc.

It's helpful when someone tells you - stick to the run or try play action....especially when you have a stretch where you are getting rattled

[Jakeness23]

The only real "problem" I see with the box score is that Mike Tolbert had 0 carries; he usually at least gets a couple per game and has a high of 13 this season, with an average of around 6 carries per game. He usually comes in on 3rd and short/4th and short. And Jonathan Stewart only had 1 carry when he is averaging close to 9 so far this season (though he's only appeared in the last 5 games). Other than that, I mean the score is pretty high but I guess it's not exactly a score that is unheard of, just not usually how it goes, but it looks good. I'll be trying these out today with my Panther franchise.

THe weather was awful as the game was played in the pouring rain. New England fell behind early after a Brady interception gave the Panthers the ball and DeAngelo Williams punched in a 2 yd TD run to give Carolina a 7-0 lead. The Patriots would lose Danny Amendola to injury in the 1st quarter and would have to find a way to produce offense without the trio of Gronkowski, Edleman and Amendola. The Patriots got a pair of FG from Gostkowski including a 54 yard bomb to cut the lead to 7-6 early in the 2nd quarter. DeAngelo Williams was having a monster game as he broke loose for an 89 yard TD run and then took a screen pass 30 yards for a TD to increase the Panthers lead to 21-6 midway through the 2nd quarter. New England then put together an outstanding drive as they rotated RB and ran the ball downfield to setup play action passes and Stevan Ridley finished the drive with a 6 yard TD run to make it 21-13 and that would be the score heading into halftime. The Patriots put together a good drive to start the 3rd quarter but it ended when the Panthers picked off Brady when his screen pass was batted at the line and intercepted. The Panthers then had a 10 play drive that resulted in a 47 yd FG by Gano to make it 24-13. The Panthers then took the game over as the depleted Patriots offense struggled mightily and Carolina seemed to get every possible bounce or break in this game as deflected balls were caught by the Panthers receivers on offense and the Panthers defense intercepted a pass that was deflected at the line and another when a Patriots receiver slipped on the wet turf as everything that could go wrong for New England seemed to go wrong. The Patriots did battle pretty hard and this game was decided on a couple of big plays and bounces that went Carolina's way as the Panthers defeat the Patriots 45-20. * Tom Brady had a rough night as he was without 3 major weapons and the weather conditions made it tough to throw against a good Carolina defense as Brady went 37 of 54 for 310 yards with 1 TD and 4 INT. Two of the interceptions were bad throws and the other two were on a batted ball and when a Patriots receiver slipped and fell leaving the Panthers DB all alone for an easy pick. * DeAngelo Williams had a monster game as he ran for 192 yards on 30 carries with 2 TD and also had a 30 yard TD reception * The Patriots did a pretty good job defending Cam Newton as the Panthers QB threw for just 162 yards and rushed for 71 * Danny Amendola left the game in the 1st quarter with an injury and he will be out 3 weeks with a Dislocated Elbow as the Patriots offense in now in major panic mode without Gronkowski, Amendola and Edelman. The Patriots are going to have to lean heavily on their running game in order to setup the passing game. * The rookie WR tandem of Kenbrell Thomkins and Aaron Dobson were a bright spot as the both had big games after being thrust into major roles as the biggest passing weapons for Brady right now. Thompkins had 12 catches for 154 yards and a TD while Dobson caught 10 balls for 96 yards in the game. * The Patriots signed free agent TE DJ Williams prior to the game to fill the empty spot on their roster as a result of the season ending injury to Julian Edelman * The injury depleted Patriots fall to 7-3 on the season and have another tough game next week as the 8-2 Denver Broncos come to Foxboro for a huge AFC clash of 1st place teams in their respective divisions. The Broncos will come into the game relatively healthy and the game marks the return of Wes Welker as well as another chapter in the Brady/Manning saga as it will get national attention in prime time on Sunday night Football New England Patriots at Carolina Panthers Nov 18, 2013 1ST 2ND 3RD 4TH SCORE New England Patriots (7-3) 3 10 0 7 20 Carolina Panthers (8-2) 7 14 3 21 45 Team Stats Comparison NWE CAR Total Offense 407 422 Rushing Yards 104 270 Passing Yards 303 152 First Downs 21 16 Punt Return Yards 6 20 Kick Return Yards 134 72 Total Yards 547 514 Turnovers 4 0 3rd Down Converstion 7-16 4-11 4th Down Conversion 2-2 0-0 2-Point Conversion 0-0 0-0 Red Zone Touchdowns/Field Goals 1/0 3/0 Penalties 0-0 2-30 Posession Time 31:55 28:05 Scoring Summary FIRST QUARTER SCORING NWE CAR 11:17 (CAR) DeAngelo Williams 2 yd TD run 0 7 5:40 (NWE) Stephen Gostkowski 38 yd FG 3 7 SECOND QUARTER SCORING NWE CAR 14:56 (NWE) Stephen Gostkowski 54 yd FG 6 7 11:09 (CAR) DeAngelo Williams 89 yd TD run 6 14 6:39 (CAR) DeAngelo Williams 30 yd TD pass from Newton 6 21 2:13 (NWE) Stevan Ridley 6 yd TD run 13 21 THIRD QUARTER SCORING NWE CAR 4:27 (CAR) Graham Gano 47 yd FG 13 24 FOURTH QUARTER SCORING NWE CAR 11:54 (CAR) Cam Newton 15 yd TD run 13 31 11:42 (CAR) Quintin Mikell 34 yd INT return for TD 13 38 10:38 (NWE) Kenbrell Thompkins 61 yd TD pass from Brady 20 38 2:57 (CAR) Steve Smith 20 yd TD pass from Newton 20 45 New England Patriots PASSING C/A YDS TD INT Brady 37/54 310 1 4 RUSHING ATT YDS AVG TD Ridley 12 58 4.8 1 Blount 5 31 6.2 0 Vereen 4 1 0.2 0 Bolden 2 14 7.0 0 RECEIVING REC YDS AVG TD Thompkins 12 154 12.8 1 Dobson 10 96 9.6 0 Amendola 3 24 8.0 0 Vereen 3 11 3.6 0 Ridley 3 -8 -2.6 0 Hoomanawanui 2 6 3.0 0 Boyce 2 10 5.0 0 Mulligan 1 10 10.0 0 Slater 1 7 7.0 0 DEFENSE TACK SACK INT TD Spikes 7 0 0 0 Mayo 6 0 0 0 Collins 6 0 0 0 Talib 6 0 0 0 Ninkovich 4 1 0 0 Gregory 4 0 0 0 Harmon 4 0 0 0 Ryan 3 0 0 0 Wilson 3 0 0 0 Vellano 2 0 0 0 Arrington 2 0 0 0 Wilfork 2 1 0 0 JOnes 2 0 0 0 KICKING FG XP PTS LONG Gostkowski 2/2 2/2 8 54 PUNTING NO YDS AVG IN20 Allen 5 223 44.6 1 KICK RETURN RET YDS AVG TD Boyce 7 134 19.1 0 PUNT RETURN RET YDS AVG TD Vereen 3 4 1.3 0 Amendola 1 2 2.0 0 Carolina Panthers PASSING C/A YDS TD INT Newton 15/22 162 2 0 RUSHING ATT YDS AVG TD Williams 30 192 6.4 2 Newton 8 71 8.8 1 Stewart 1 7 7.0 0 RECEIVING REC YDS AVG TD Hixon 6 52 8.6 0 D.

That's a game issue.....not a slider issue

[Mike Lowe]

Some observations through 4 games:

Raiders (me) lead NFL in sacks w 23 (including 8 last week...4 by my backup MLB). 2nd place has 16.

Raiders tired for 1st in defensive INTs w 7.

To no one's surprise, Raiders 1st in both penalties (12) and penalty yardage (120) (second place is 17/134).

No team has thrown more interceptions (10...Cowboys too) and had more fumbles (3).

These are just for reference and I'm only pointing out the outliers. The rest look good, so please don't take this as a knock.

I'll look at player stats later tonight.

I'm pretty sure all games were played w latest sliders...first game might have been a previous set...I forget.

I watched the second half of last nights game. I really enjoyed it! I think it is very useful to sit back and watch another player… how he picks his plays, the good and bad throws he makes. I learned alot.

I also found it "easy" to comment on another players game… easier than criticizing myself!
So, unsolicited feedback:
- I thought you kept trying to bounce your running plays outside. It appeared to me that the carolina DE's were getting way up field and blowing up your plays. cutting back to the middle and taking 4-5 yards is the play. Easier said than done!
- Williams (RB carolina) was getting outside on almost every run and just gashing you. I think he had 200 yards rushing. Im not sure if you did, but I would have spread my DL and tried to get penetration up the field to force him back to the middle… again, maybe you were trying, but yikes, he got around the corner every time.
- The CPU had it in for you… the screen pass that got picked must have bounced off of 3 guys. Steve smith dove to catch a pass (for a 1st down) after it bounced off 2 of you dbs… you could not catch a break!
- On defense you were playing a DE. I thought you might want to change to a DT and try to get some pressure up the middle against Newton. you never really got there as a DE, and I have found pressure up the middle to rattle QBs.
- On offense you threw the ball a lot to crossing patterns. I thought the defense was flooding the middle and the curl routes looked open to me. I know in NG madden those curl routes get picked a lot.. but my 2 cents is they looked open.

I'm going to check out your stream again tonight!

Thanks!! I appreaciate the feedback....it's helpful, especially when you tend to start gravitating to your go to plays & strategies.

I'm gonna finish the final quarter of the Denver game in about 15 minutes or so once the baby is ready for bed
