I played one full season of Face the Franchise. I’ll provide a bit of a recap in the next few posts. Overall I had a lot of fun. I also had lots of frustration. If you own the game you definitely should try the mode. It’s still bare bones but it’s a start.
Player: Jay Mo
Hometown: Vancouver, BC
Position: Quarterback
Hand: Left-handed
Archetype: Field general
Signed with the Miami Hurricanes
College Football Semi Final
1417
National Championship
7.10
JayMo wins his first and only National Championship and gets an invite to the combine.
At the combine JayMo went 18/24 in passing and as such was invited to the draft. He is expected as a late first round pick. NFL Network analysts have not been kind but we will see what happens.
Draft Day.
And with the 26th pick, the Miam Dolphins select Jay Mo from the Miami Hurricanes.
Preseason
Game 1. 27.20.
Game 2. 21.19.
Game 3. 20.14.
Game 4. 26.
Overall a very poor preseason for the Fins with a 1-3 record. Jay Mo struggled to move the ball at times and threw a few pics. Ryan Fitzpatrick played much better but in game 3 Coach Flores told JayMo the team was his. With that’s it’s on to the regular season.
Opening week.

Ugly! JayMo’s NFL start was an abomination! He went 14/29 for 182 yards and 3 interceptions including a pick six. The Ravens D brought the heat and JayMo couldn’t adjust. The preseason problems continue in the regular season.
Week 2 to week 5:
21.17.
3.
36.14.
Bye week
What a horrendous start the the campaign. JayMo has been sacked on average 5 times per game and is throwing picks left right and centre. To make matters worse there is no running game and Kenyan Drake has multiple fumbles each game. Receivers are not helping either as we lead the league in drops.
Sitting at 0-4 the Dolphins hope to see an improvement between now and the halfway point of the season.
Week 6 to week 9:
7.24.
21.(18/36 199 yards 3td 1 int)
17.(Monday Night Football). (14/21 268 yards 2 tds)
20.23.
What a turnaround! After an 0-4 start the fish now sit at 3-5 and are in 3rd in the AFC East. JayMo is playing well managing the games and the interceptions have stopped though the sacks, drops and fumbles continue. The Pittsburgh win Is game of the year material thus far. Good things may be on the horizon?
Week 10 and week 11
9.(17/28 187 yards 2 ints and 2 fumbles)
20.
The Colts game should have been a win if not for two costly fumbles. However, the offence is slowing down again. Nonetheless a victory against the first place Bills is huge. 4-6 at the 10 game mark is very respectable. We are even in the wildcard hunt as it stands right now.
And the season is lost....
Week 12 to week 16:
26.(5/16 124 yards 2 td 1 int in an absolute blizzard).
* Kenyan Drake went down with an injury and Keith Ballage took over on 19 carries for 238 yards and 1 td. He should be rob 1 as Drake has done nothing all year.
26.24.
* this was a win except Drake fumbled in the last minute and Philly kicked the game winner.
23.
21.(37/50 386 yards 2td 3 int)
4-10 with two games remaining. The season collapsed on us. We continue to fumble, drop balls and give up about sacks. A lot is needed in the offseason.
Week 16 and week 17:
7.10.
17.
The season could not end soon enough. The Dolphins finish 5-11 on the season. Even worse with the Patriots win they make the playoffs. Ugh!
