    I am loving the Dynasty Wire. Not to mention the stories but it's cool seeing the pics and videos.

    Definitely! Speaking of this....has anybody had any trouble creating a story on the website? It doesn't do anything when I click on the create button after I typed the article, selected the media, etc. I was thinking it was my IE browser on a laptop, but I wanted to make sure. I was trying to create a story about an injury and couldn't.

    I created one last night and it worked fine. It even shows up in the dynasty.

    Well I was bored at work and started looking at my QBs once Potts and Sticks leave, and I may be running a different type of offense next season.

    Anyone else facing the BS CPU breaks damn near every tackle? I mean I'm not going for strips or hit sticks, even set big hits to conservative instead of balanced.

    They always get that animation where it freaking propels them to run faster and ur not catching them but I never get that animation breaking tackles.

    i couldn't tackle BYUs RB for shit in the rain, i think he broke like 17 tackles total (it felt like it), but overall ive had success sacking the QB manually and with the DL

    I was going to ask this same question. Wayyyyyyyy too many broken tackles, especially for the relatively inferior competition we've been playing.

    Upping the tackling or knocking down the RB Ability slider a tad would probably help.

    That's actually a good point ... I haven't had problems with the QB or with most receivers ... just the running backs that are breaking tackles left and right.

    ECU's back broke 8 tackles on 11 runs, the receivers were never tackled on the first attempt, breaking the mist tackles and got 3 TD's this way.

    Yeah I can get the QB manually usually with my backers or if the QB tries to get cute and run.

    I had a huge problem with Toledo breaking a ton of tackles, Iowa wasn't a big problem since they passed more than they ran but when they did, they called for holding on about 3-5 big runs (blatant holding). Tulsa didn't run much.

    I'm having a problem getting sacks but I've started switching up my blitzes and getting alot of TFLs running a 3-3-5 since I can release a safety or a linebacker safely without worrying about the pass too much. I didn't run a 3-3-5 against Toledo (ran a 4-3 which failed), so that's why I've had a big improvement.

    Auburn was the first team I faced that broke tackles, but it wasn't unreal because it was Ontario McCaleb or Mario Fannin. I still shut down their run game tho. Once Cameron Newton went out for the game their offense went downhill.

    No and no. They did little to nothing for OF this year... they said it was because very little percentage played it. Very little percentage played it because it sucked.

    I dont play Online or Offline Franchise at all, I strictly play in leagues in another community. I loved what they did to Madden 10 so I'm sure I will love 11 with the addition of Locomotion alone.

    Mostly for the same reasons that I hate playing the Offline Dynasties in NCAA, too much tweaking needs to be done just to play the CPU.

    I think I just played the best game of my life lol. I gave 28 points in the first quarter, but only allowed 3 for the rest of the game.
