Miracle comebacks again

[ThePebble19]

A 10 point lead with 4 mins to go is hardly a safe lead. A lot can happen in 4 minutes, especially if (and I'm not inferring that you did) you are running passing plays on offense, and not trying to run clock out to preserve your lead.

I haven't had one comeback like that yet. I have had the CPU cut it to 3 or 7 with only a couple mins to go, but if you run a good offense, you should be able to run the clock out. Especially if you are playing 15 min quarters with a 20-25 second runoff.

If this wasn't possible people would scream bloody murder that the game was broken. I've had this work both ways so far. The other night in my Giants franchise I had Tampa make a last minute drive to steal the game. (I wasn't mad that they had come back to win it, but I was cheesed off that their QB got over 6 seconds on every single play, thats another story though.)

Then last night I am down 23-10 with 1:45 left in the game. Manning leads me down field with some great passes for a TD, I recover the onside kick, get sacked on my first play, quickly call a timeout with 3 seconds left. Snap, hail mary, Smith catches it and runs it to the house. Game over 23-24. And I'm playing on my skill which has apparently put me somewhere between All-Pro and All-Madden after about 10 games.

It does, huh?

I just completed a game that the Packers were up 17 to 0 at halftime over the Vikings.

At the end of the third quarter the score is 27 to 13.

The 4th quarter the Vikes score 7 more points and that's it.

All the game does is try to get more aggressive and pass more. You need to counter that playcalling.

Ian has already confirmed months ago that there is no rubberband logic in Madden.

I'm not even letting this get started.

1. This belong in the impressions thread at best.
2. The lead designer has said it doesn't exist.

Carry on
