NFL 2015/2016 Season

The patriots are such cheats aren't they? They tried to spy on the jets defence in one match. Their delegate got caught trying to film their signals and relay back to the patriots. Their coach is called Bill Belacheat for good reason.

As for the Seahawks lack of preseason form I wouldn't worry. Preseason is strictly about culling players you don't want, getting back up
Players game time, and familiarising the rookies with the playbook.
Just to use a personal example on my madden 2006 game I once went 0-4 preseason yet had a perfect 16-0 regular season and won the super bowl.!!!!!!!!

Can I remind you the Pats SCORED MORE POINTS IN THE SECOND HALF and if the balls were as under deflated as it was said it would of been picked up a lot sooner . As for Brady he had a real fair appeal when the guy he's appealing to was always going to ignore it .

FREE BRADY

How did the accusation come about in the first place?

When they intercepted Brady just before the half but the refs had their hands on the balls regularly before that , I also highly doubt that the Pats were the only team doing it .

Unfortunately the patriots have previous in terms of skulduggery. So they will judged more harshly than others .In America they usually see that sort of thing as getting an edge. Not this time.

sky sports have today announced they will be showing sunday night football (the games c4 used to show) and Monday Night Football from this upcoming season which will mean over 100 games over the course of the season and at least 5 games a week.

Fark, I was going to watch Bears/Packers and Broncos/Ravens via GamePass but they'll be blacked out if on Sky so I'll have my mute button at the ready to block out the dross that is the Sky Sports pundits At least by the time I get to watch the Falcons game on Tuesday it'll be available on GP, lol

The college season starts on Thursday and BT Sports/ESPN are showing some pretty good games if anyone has the package and fancies giving them a go...

South Carolina vs North Carolina, Thurs @ 23:00 - Always worth a watch for the rivalry
Minnesota vs TCU, Fri @ 02:00 - First chance to see TCU who are being tipped (by some) to make it to the Championship Playoffs
SMU vs Baylor, Sat @ 00:00 - Baylor are another team tipped for the playoffs, a friend of mine who is almost like the Statto of college football reckons this could be a tasty one
Boise State vs Washington, Sat @ 03:15 - This one is probs for fans only, if it was at Boise I'd say watch just for their trippy blue field

Purchased Madden 16 today, first time I've ever played a Madden game (don't really play sports games in general) and it looks great but the tutorial's will be getting a battering over the bank holiday weekend! I've got a lot to learn tactically

@baddabing
1 keep running the ball and send the receivers to go in motion.
That draws their corner back run to the point the corner back would have vacated
2 in defence play cover 2 blitz that way you will rush the quarteback and protect your cornerbacks.

Play franchise mode it will really enhance your understanding of how teams run their offence and defence. You play franchise mode for 30 years so you get a chance to really understand your own preferred style and how important it is to have a fast cornerback that can tackle. You really do feel like a NFL coach/owner.

Cheers Setter, I'll keep those tips in mind
