Re: What's happening in your franchise?
I'm 3 weeks into my third season with the Saints.
Went 12-4 and made the playoffs the first year, winning the NFC South with the Saints. Lost to the Vikings in the divisional championships.
After the draft, I traded McAllister, after he had a horrible season, and picked up a rookie halfback and a few draft picks for next year.
In the second season went 9-7, making the wild card. I went the conference championships against the Redskins. I lost in OT on the kick-off after Henderson fumbled and they returned it for a TD.
I shopped Henderson around that off-season (I was quite ticked off at him), but couldn't get a deal that seemed fair to both parties. So I kept him.
Season 3 comes along and after all my re-signings and draft picks, I still have plently of cap room, and I pick up a 94 rated HB off the free agent list (can't remember who he was) and I trade him for Greg Jennings who is 94 overall and has 95+ speed.
Now 3 weeks into my season, I'm just destroying the competition and I am raising the difficulty (custom, worked great until now) before my next game. Ever since I picked up Jennings my passing game is unstoppable. With Henderson and Jennings speed combined with Colston's and Meachem's great hands we are barely missing any passes. Brees already has 14 touchdown passes and Jennings has caught 8 of those. The last 3 games haven't even been fun, I'm breaking to many tackles and I can't miss any passes.
I really have no clue as how the game went from challenging, and close games, to straight up blowouts everytime we take the field.
