Hes last in passing yards with 388 after 6 weeks. Has 9 INTs and only 3 TDs.

That is very wierd indeed.

Steelers beat my Browns first game of the year, 21-20. Troy Polomalu had an INT, Forced fumble and recovered the fumble he forced. Brian Hoyer played very good for me until late in the 4th, with about 4 mins to go he through a INT which led to a touchdown with two mins left. Hoyer also fumbled on 1 yard line going into end zone. Throwing the ball he did fine. He had 1 TD, 2 INT, 22-36 for 206 or something like that. Roethlisberger was 16-23 258 0 TD 2 INT..he played well too but my defense sacked him seven times. story of the game so he struggled to get comfortable all game long.

Couple questions. I can't seem to edit players of teams I'm not controlling. Is there a way I'm just not seeing? Or should I add all 32 teams as characters to do this? And is there a way to remove a character if I want?

Continued my Jets CFM. Had second pick in the draft with the Giants have the first pick. I had targeted a superstar WR named Jaylen McClain and a RG named Clinton Hagan to solidify my OL, along with my trade I made for LG Jonathan Cooper of Arizona I made earlier (posted earlier).

I traded my second pick to Cleveland for their fourth and and fourteenth picks. At the draft, the Giants selected WR McClain first overall, which ruined my plan. RG Hagan was slated to go end of first round, so I traded my fourth pick to Oakland for their first rounder next year and a sixth rounder this year. Predictably, Hagan got picked tenth overall... leaving my plans in tatters!

So with the fourteenth pick I instead took a MLB named Shawn Mathis who was my third option. I also picked an superstar potential CB in the second named Jaron Ellington to team with Milliner. Other players selected were decent but I took a 6'4'' 210lbs WR named Anthony Heard in the seventh round who is a blazer and has good catching skills.

In free agency, I signed TE Jared Cook, RG Harvey Dahl (with the intention of building up Hagan behind him) and Morris Claiborne as my third CB behind Ellington and Milliner, plus other free agents who I cannot recall.

Overall, I am having blast! Love M15!!

I'll post a more in depth up-date soon. In season one, my Ravens went 11-5. We got the #1 seed in the AFC, winning the AFC North. I beat the 9-7 Patriots in the dividional round. I took out the Chargers in the AFC Championship. So, my Ravens are the 2014 AFC Champions, and we're going to the Superbowl.

Does anybody have a good slider set? I checked the slider forums here and am considering Gutterphenom or JoshC1977's sets. I want a challenge, I didn't want to make the Superbowl my first year.

Total newb to this game, I'm from wales so don't have a great knowledge on NFL. I know the basics of how offensive plays are run but not to sure on defensive tactics. Anyone give me any tips on what I should be concentrating on as an owner. What kind of teams should I start off with, don't want to go a great team to begin with I was thinking maybe texans and see how far I could take them.

Just kicked off my career as my Buccaneers.

In the opener against Carolina, Glennon went down with a broken collerbone in the first quarter. I brought Kafka in and he went down with a broken collerbone in the second quarter. I recently released my other options at QB so I had to put in my punter with a 14 ovr rating at QB.

Went on to win the game 15-3 and he completed 3/4 for 40 yards.

Luckily, Doug Martin and Tre Mason in my backfield was enough to burn clock and defensively we kept coming up with timely stops.

I'm afraid if they had scored a few times on me there's no way I was going to be able to stay in the game with no quarterback.
