6 min quarters..? i think it should be 8 or 7 min. 6 seems a little low. but whatever you do is fine with me.

THERES NO CLOCK RUN OFF TRUST ME 6 WILL SEEM LIKE FOREVER...sorry for all caps

wat do u mean by releasing 3 players with average of 215

Not much to worry about not since this will be done at the end of the season
but it will help keep the free agent roster
and your rosters from being full cuz remember we do get to do a rookie draft which is 7 new players at the end of the year


the ideal situation is if u have a young player how has A potential but is over all like a 72 but u have a 35 year old start who over all is like 85 you would may want to let him go to give ur young player the chance to improve becuz ur older player will retire soon

but here a example

lets say its the end of the year and i let go

Jon D CB over all 82
Kelly S WR over all 78
Chris J. RB over all 75

i would come out at 235 well over the 215 mark... you can have any combo to get to 215 mark....

this is also help team who players will get hurt during the next season...becuz the free agent market wont be full of scrub players

that sounds kool r u gonna have the actual ncaa rosters for the rookie draft

so draft is in like 30 min right?

how is the draft order chosen?

no madden has pre-set rookie roster theres nothing i can do about it

so, theres no salary cap in this league, right?

no just the releasing of free agents at the end of the year

No huddle is a part of the game so if u abuse wat does it matter and i go 4 it if im within 4&5 so thats just the way i play madden

what r u talking about

first of all, no huddle is a part of the game, but abusing it is not, the "matter" is the owner wants this to be a realistic league, hence it wouldnt be very real if you do it every play.

secondly, i just wanted to tell the COMMISH that i think you should tweak the 4th down rule slightly. I think that if your in between the 35-40 of the opponent then you can go for it, unless your ahead maybe. My kicker struggles to kick 45 yarders, and the reality is, a lot of teams do go for it in that range nowadays

just a suggestion

ok the only teams the really uses no huddles are the colts and the saints...

no huddles are used more in college then pros that becuz colleges run a check with me offense..

no huddles are meant to keep the defense off balanced and keeps them from being able to change packages but they dont no huddle the whole way down the field... if they did games would be longer and there would never be any substitutions with out calling time outs... nfl teams usually hick they ball between 0-15 secs left on the play clock thus meaning most NFL teams dont consistently run the no huddle offense

2) i am the commish and i think the 4th down rule is fine. u can go for it any time u want 2wice in ever game ... if u cant stop ur opponent and score then maybe u dont deserve to win thats just how i fill not tryin to be smart... but there is no clock run off so i fill like these rules are just fine and i haven't heard any other complaints

ok for no huddle can i do it like after i get a big momentum changing play like a 40 yds pass or run

for example i complete a 50 yarder go no huddle for the next play then stop after that

this is how i feel u should never no huddle more then 3 times in a row and no huddle more then 3 times in a drive ...

unless its like a 2 min drill
