First time I've heard the Packers mentioned with Madden 10 . I know you were the Bears so how did our new defense look?

Not quite sure why people are harping on the FG, it barely got in. Plus, Mare has a decent leg (just kinda erratic). We are all on the same page I think. None of us on the team want to have 90% field goal making in the game this year.

Kampman was a beast at OLB. Probably didnt target him enough in the passing game with Olsen. Bigby was making a lot of plays. And BJ Raji was a beast in the middle. I could not run the ball after Forte got hurt (but I had a junky little backup crew to choose from!). Hawk had a sack or two I believe. Ryan was blitzing the hell out of me.

not doubting that Mare should be able to make those kicks by any means. The field goal kicking is just upsetting to me in general. See sig below, and the Madden 09 kicking demo in my arena in which I lowered my kickers accuracy rating to zero, and the game kicking accuracy slider to zero, then continued to drill 20 consecutive 57 yarders

Had it been some goofy crap, a bug would have been sent out 5 minutes after we put the controllers down!

It was well within Julius Peppers capabilities, and probably no other DE in football. That is because we give him a higher JMP and CTH that other DEs in the league (say thanks UNC Basketball!).

+1 drop this every other day and it will make the wait more bearable.

Got ya. I'm sure Ian is already on top of this, but I will double check in the AM.

Actually led to a pretty good bug find by our dev manager Ryan Ferwerda, we had too many long term and significant injuries occurring in-game (we had recently tuned those up to occur more often - a constant back and forth this time of year in franchise tuning). So i went in and tuned those back down now to occur less often.

And remember folks, you can always turn injuries off if the thought of broken bones makes you cringe.
