SIM COMPLETE - WEEK 12

[rubisco43]

San Fran looked strong in the air this week, that rookie QB is playing really well. He torched us deep several times, and of course O'Neil shook his lucky charms for all kinds of all purpose yards.. I'm curious to see if a guy playing that level at that position comes back for another year in this iteration of the game. It would be a waste if he pulled a Barry on Frisco next season.

On my end, the offense moved well all game, but couldn't sustain drives when we needed to. It seems like Doug Allen is growing- He completes a lot, but for very few yards. I don't think I have seen a "medium pass" go for 3 yards as many times as his have. :)

San Fran will make a playoff push I think, after watching them in action.. But will it be too little too late in a conference where it might take 11-5 to qualify?

Unless I go on a long winning streak, the playoffs might be out of reach. I have to face Las Vegas next week, then Chicago then Phoenix then S. Maryland (all with a decent winning percentage).

I'm glad I started my rookie. He's been a godsend. Without him, I really think I'd be more like 3-8 than 6-5. O'Neill gets yards but for some reason doesn't get in the endzone. But as long as those two keep me in the game, I'm happy.

I plan on keeping O'Neill, but who knows what'll happen during the rest of the season.

Motor City goes into Dakota and drops 31 on the Defense heavy Totems. That's a clean 4-0 sweep over the NC North. My "Bend Don't Break Cover 2" seems to be holding up at this point. Glen Hecht was a model of efficiency going 11/15 for 134 and 2 TDs (No Picks or Fumbles).

KC and Moon played the Tiki/Brandon Jacobs games. KC had 30 carried for 103 yards (to narrowly hang on to the lead for the rushing title), but Moon took in the two rushing TDs on his 11 carries. My game plan to run away from their best Defensive Lineman (Cuomo) seemed to work. I only ran 5 plays in that direction which rendered him almost non-existant in the game.

Should be a test this week against New Orleans. They don't even pretend to run the ball. We'll see how much my D can continue to bend.

Another loss. At least I made this one close. My offense flat out stinks. I knew this would be a tough 5 game stretch, but I didn't expect to lose every freakin game. :x

Field goal fest in Punx (5 field goals vs 2 field goals) as Punx somehow get to 6-5 and would be in the playoffs if they started today --- my favorite stat line -- horace tatum 7 red zone rushes for 1 total yard.... :cry:

Adrian Hermon 12/36/161 TD:1 Int:2 Rate:34.6

Henry Harrell 13/62 AVE:4.77

Why does my coach hate Henry (and by extension, me)? Not to get all 'Jerry Jones', but we have the highest paid head coach in the OSFL and if he's not going to listen to instructions, he's going to be looking for a job after this season.

We sealed a sad and pathetic win with 38 seconds left in the game when CB Rusty Abrams picked off Atkins at our own 2 yard line, foiling what would have been the go-ahead score.

Our offense managed a whopping 43 yards in the second half.

On the upside, our defense really dug in when we had our backs against the wall.

With very quick math and not getting into the Matchups... I believe with 5 weeks to go ONLY the North Liberty Enforcers are mathmatically eliminated from the playoffs. I'm sure there may be more when you dive into head to heads, but that's pretty good parity.

[Jistic]

All we do every week is ruin our draft position.

Charlotte wins 7 in a row ! Barely held on 16-10. Gainseville had the ball on my 33 with a minute to go.

Last 3 plays of the game

1. blocked pass
2. sack
3. blocked pass.

[Eaglesfan27]

Well, we won another game and actually have a winning streak. I've turned into a more conservative team offensively, and it is working for now. Hopefully, we can turn this team around for the rest of the year.

[HWessinmouse]

Los Alamos has a couple/few winnable games (at least we think so), but are already looking ahead to week 16 against our arch rivals The Roy Rogers' Fan Club or whatever they're calling themselves these days. A memo has been sent down by the Owners that the season will be a success regardless of record if the Monsters can beat Phoenix.

I don't know if we have the horses, but we have a goal to unite us.

Roy Rogers was a Rhinestone Cowboy and a bit too "clean" for the Riders, we're more like Clint



rough around the edges, a little dirty at times, and definitely a hell of a lot meaner.

[HWessinmouse]

Roy Rogers would kick Clint's ass.


Of course his taste in women was questionable...



Which one scares you the most?

Morgantown limps to another close win....and another injury.

[robster1225]

I almost won this time... Almost got to that incredible 2-win plateau.

Valiant effort, but honestly, I never doubted that I'd win.

Only one game back in the wildcard race, and a decent schedule left: still have games against Denver and Yuma. But, i also have to play Las Vegas again, as well as Morgantown and Utah. So, this is going to be interesting.

Nice gameplan Clay. This game pretty much sums up what I had been thinking, the Totems are pretenders in the big picture. Will win my division, but after that, probably get bounced from the playoffs pretty quickly.
