Going deep is SUPER rewarding in this game because it's tough. It feels like you earned the big play, contrary to the past where it felt like you were entitled to it.

That flat ticked me off. LOL. Rashean Mathis was playing good man coverage up until that point.

Maybe if you were using a team with an elite QB like Brees or the Mannings they'd make those throws? By the way, you were working me on that drive that David Garrard stalled. I couldn't figure out how to contain that little monster MJD. Does anyone have tips out there on how to throw the corner route well against a cover 2 zone defense? I'm struggling with that at the moment.

I think this is it. Sometimes, I forget to let go of the stick and let him, set when I drop.

I used to never control my drop back playing APF...I may revert to the same philosphy. Let the QB take the 3 oir 5 step drop on his on..so he is SET..then throw. If I have to move, then I can take over.

I did that using Mark Sanchez and I had much better #'s

I'm struggling with the deep ball as well. But then again, according to ratings, Brady Quinn doesn't have Drew Brees's arm.

I have to adapt to "dinking and dunking" short passes to move down the field.

Several times, I launch a bomb, only to have it A) severly underthrown, or B)overthrown right into the CB's hands....
