    First one was in '89 but in '90 they moved the franchise to Sega Genesis. I think the earliest I still own is '93?

    This coaching staff and management haven’t been together one season yet.

    Hopefully they’re just getting started, but can remain competitive.

    My first Madden game was on the PC and there was no graphics...well there was X's and O's but the rest was text based. You would pick your play. The Xs and Os would move around and then just like the ESPN online play by play today a line would pop up like

    BRISTER long pass to the right to Lipps tackled by Metcalf gain of 26

    when that PS 2 Madden came out I was blown away by the visuals and gas to buy one

    You can keep defenses off-balance and camouflage the OLine by playing misdirection football and switching up the tempo. Shovel passes, draws and RB screens kinda help with this as well. Doesn't exactly mean it will work. But just saying.

    Well there goes our 6th rd QB pick. Atleast we keep the 7th rd QB pick again.

    I am sure that back up linebacker wins us the division this year and makes us super bowl contenders. We should trade claypool for a real offensive lineman. We have plenty of wrs and he is not disciplined anyway. That may actually help the cause . It’s frustrating watching lousy offensive football the last two years and gm does nothing to solve the problem and we had plenty of cap space this year. Averaging 2.8 yards a carry and the QBs running for their life is not a formula for winning football. Kc solved their bad line in five months. We are in year four so I blame management.

    I can't say they have done nothing to TRY to fix the Oline, but what they have done is very underwhelming

    Last year they added
    Haeg
    Leglue
    Coward
    Turner
    Green 3rd round
    Moore 4th round

    This year
    Cole
    Daniels
    Davis

    I actually had Green on my list that year, but not as day 1 starter..i felt he was an athletic project which he is proving to be.

    As for RIGHT NOW.... I'm not sure what they can do. I think Claypool is going to be good so I am not interested in trading him... plus it's going to take him plus picks and $$$ to get a real stud to start,c and honestly what good is a stud LT or LG going to do then when the other 4 guys are still being run over

    I would bring in David Moore G/C that Cleveland just released and Jack Anderson G/C the Eagles just let go.

    I think we are going to bandaid it up, but they got to really invest in it next year

    On 3rd and 1 we pitch the ball back 5 yards and run up the middle vs a stacked box.

    Well sh!t, let me get in on this beatdown as well. 20 years of keeping track of how many plays little Billy gets so you can avoid having his mom Karen biatch you out after the game because he only got 5 plays instead of 6 isn't much of a qualification. But by all means, please regale us with tales and accounts of your football coaching prowess.

    It’s easier to kick a short field goal in the pros than in high school

    Also why some plays won't work in the NFL like they do elsewhere.

    Hash marks on fingertips. Somebody had to stick it on the pin going through cardboard under the cup.

    There is a very old post card from Breckinridge CO somewhere in my house with a pin hole in the middle and yellowing on the picture of peak 9

    Haven’t seen it in a long long time but I know it’s still here somewhere

    I kept it for nostalgia
