DALLAS, TX – Facing the need to win one of their last two games, the Ravens came out and dominated the Buffalo Bills in Dallas, TX. Starting up 7-0, the Ravens gave up a score to the Bills, only to dominate the Bills O with picks to the tune of 28-7.

Coach Stevens then retreated, raspy voice in hand, and the Ravens continued to pour it on against Coach GVD to the final of 45-14.

The Ravens move to 7-2 and clinch a spot in the Season 6 playoffs. Notably sitting on the outside is the Season 5 Super Bowl champion, Coach Kershaw. Maybe he shouldn’t have left Steeltown?

SAN FRANCISCO, CA –

Much to the dismay of Coaches Burch, Ward, and Koutsouvanos, the New England Patriots eked out their seventh victory of the 2009 Madden VI season over the Washington Redskins, 27-20.

It was a very good battle. The Redskins held a 17-7 lead heading into the half and were set to receive the ball; however, on the opening drive Jason Campbell threw a mighty poor interception that Jonathan Wilhite took to the house for seven. The Patriots scored again on that pretty Brady to Moss connection after another defensive stand to go up 21-17.

The Skins retaliated with a quick field goal to tighten the gap to one, but the Pats again marched downfield leading to a Fred Taylor score. An ambitious Coach Kershaw went for two to try to make it a two possession game and got stuffed by Fat Albert Haynesworth, making the score 27-20 with about 2:00 to go.

Coach GVD took his battalion all the way down the field slowly and methodically, all leading up to one final play. With 0:02 to go from the Patriots’ 13, Coach Kershaw brought the house, hoping to get to Campbell before he could get the ball off. Instead, he threw the famous screen to a wide open Santana Moss, with blockers ahead. While everyone else on the field and sidelines thought Moss would be in for six and the tie game, Brandon Meriweather thought otherwise – he turboed his ass over to Moss, ducked around a lead blocker, and BOOM! Hit stick. Moss crumples to the ground at the two. Clock expires.

Patriots go to 7-3, and will keep their fingers crossed for Coach Kershaw’s third playoff birth in as many Madden seasons.

Eagles vs Jets

2009-10-28T07:54:00.001-07:00

Eagles snap a 4-game losing streak by scoring 21 points in the 2nd quarter (14 in the final 36 seconds), and successfully not shitting the bed for the rest of the game.

Eagles 21
Jets 17

Jets vs Dolphins

2009-10-28T07:11:00.001-07:00

Game was even all the way through. JETS won the OT coin toss and had a nice drive only to lob it to a dolphin. But in the next play Pennington returned the favor. Back in control, the JETS continue their drive all the way to their own 40. 4th down and 6 to go, JETS make a decision to go for it. With just enough time in the pocket, Sanchez launches it for a touch down.

JETS are now 6 – 3

FINAL SCORE:
DOLPHINS – 17
JETS – 23

Vikings end a painful season

The Vikings took down the Eagles today 28-17, with 133 yds and 2 TDs from
Adrian Peterson, to finish season six at 4-6 and miss the playoffs for the
first time in the WK Madden league.

But will probably continue to beat Blaney online, so it's cool.

Blaney responded, "That's lame. I'm leading the pack in offense(sort of) and you barely beat me. I'm the JAGS remember and don't have the best RB in the world.

I'll bet you a 12 pack of any beer of your choice and a bottle of wine for me that I beat your ass tomorrow in Madden."

Skins vs Bills

2009-10-23T12:06:00.001-07:00
