Whatt saw on MNF!

I just saw Philip Rivers throw up a lame duck lob as he was getting sacked and then it fell into the hands of Gates!! Just like in Madden! I guess this is a completely stupid animation after all. Even if it was the first time I have seen it in real-life...

BTW, congrats to the Broncos. I might be a Chiefs fan, but I'm rooting for them after all they have been through this year and I'm really starting to like McDaniels!

I didnt get to see the game. I guess lame duck throws do exist,lol.

So the broncos won then? I think the Chargers need to bring back Marty Schottenheimer.

You guys seriously haven't seen passes like that until tonight?



Wow.

Yes they won. No sir, the Chiefs need Marty back!

Not ones like we see in madden and even the one I saw tonight was unlike any I have ever seen. Usually it will just be the ball flying straight up as the QB gets hit and it usually falls incomplete.

yeah, when i saw that pass, i thought to myself "there's the old madden lame duck"

the thing is, you only see those every so often, not every time a qb gets pressure.

and by the way, shouldn't we see some of those lame duck passes ruled fumbles in M10? i see more of those type balls ruled fumbles, "empty hand" than actual passes.

Exactly how many times did you see it last night ? This happens all the time in madden 10 ; that's the common gripe.

Exactly. I have no problem with the animation. It's just how often it happens and how it makes it almost impossible to get a sack without diving at the QB (there's no animation to release the ball if you dive at the QB), but that doesn't really look real so I don't do it.

It actually happened like j times last night... Except for the completion to the unexpected receiver.
