[steelcityjames]

Raiders (cpu) 33 - Steelers(me) 20

PASSING
Big ben 19-38 242yds 1td 2ints
campbell 19-32 316yds 3td 1int

RUSHING
Mendenhall 14-40 1td
McFadden 23-94

RECEIVING
ward 6-79
moore 6-35 1td
wallace 2-69 (59long)
J.Ford 4-128 2tds
bey 4-64 1td

No sacks or FFs by either team

Raiders team speed gave me fits all game. every wr & db has a speed rating of 90-plus. i mixed up the coverages. pressed them, dropped back, man, zone, blitzed.... no matter what i did, i couldn't stop their wrs from getting open. my secondary has been exposed. other than polamalu & ike taylor my dbs are slow. gotta figure out a D strategy when facing a fast wr group...

I haven't played the Raiders in a while. We was going to be playing that division next season in my franchise but where gonna start over after this one so it will be a while before I play them. My corners arent fast either but they hold up pretty good against fast WRs most of the time but they do occasionally get put on toast.. Haha!

any advice on D strategy to handle this? J.Ford killed me. he's there #3 wr, so he was mostly lined up in the slot... total mismatch. i was gonna put taylor or polamalu on him, but that would have caused a total mismatch on the outside.

Dollar 2 man press or Dollar Cover 3 should do it when there passing.. Press the DBs.

The most thrilling victory of the season so far. Steelers(me) at Baltimore(cpu) - AFC North battle in snowy weather. I trailed 17-3 at the half, but manged a huge comeback to win 31-24. Rashard Mendenhall may have posted the most hilarious rushing stat line in nfl history. before looking at his stats, please note his longest run of the day was 9yds...which really makes his stats SUPER hilarious!!!

You're right..that's why I control the roster and depth charts for all 32 teams even if I"m onlyplaying as one team. I also am doing a 32 team chise where I play every game...it's fun being a different team each night.

Hi, i love your work. These sliders are great but i have some trouble to run with all the teams ...

CPU D-Line just easily break my O-Line and tackle for loss too often.

Any advice ?

thanx alot... glad u like them. pg 1 has the updates that i'm using NOW..... BUT, if you're having trouble running , try putting cpu tackling at 25 and put cpu blockshed between 23-25. this should help you develop your running game. over time as u get better, slowly turn them up little by little. if u can, post some stats from some of your games. i'd be interested to check them out.
