Default Madden Simulation

I hope the season ends like this. We beat Tampa in the NFC Championship to face the Patriots in the

Super Bowl

In the Super Bowl, the Patriots started off with the ball, marched down the field, and scored thanks to a Lawrence Maroney touchdown, giving them a 7-0 lead. There was no scoring until the end of the half, when a Stephen Gostkowski field goal put the Patriots up 10-0 heading into halftime.

Coming out of halftime, the Cowboys were clearly an inspired team. They scored when Tony Romo ran the ball in from six yards out, making the score 10-7. The Patriots responded with a huge kickoff return, but couldn't move the ball and could only muster a field goal. That was topped when Isaiah Stanbeck returned the resulting kickoff 95 yards, giving the Cowboys a 14-13 lead. Each team traded field goals on their next possessions, and as the fourth quarter started, the Cowboys led by the narrowest of margins: 17-16.

The Patriots kicked another field goal, Gostkowski's fourth of the game, to take a 19-17 lead. From there, the Cowboys were forced to punt, and the Patriots drove to the Cowboys 2, only for a Zach Thomas sack to force the Patriots to kick yet another field goal; Gostkowski's sixteenth point of the game made the score 22-17.

With three minutes left, Tony Romo launched the drive of his life, the highlight being a 4th-and-2 on his own 33-yard-line where he hit Terrell Owens on a slant for a first down, only for Owens to break a tackle and scamper all the way down to the Patriots 19. Two plays later, Marion Barber ran in from eight yards out to make the score 23-22; they added a two-point conversion to make it 25-22.

Giving Tom Brady the ball with 84 seconds left seemed scary enough, but much like last year, Brady couldn't get his drive started. He nearly threw an interception on first down, was sacked by Thomas on second down on a play where no one got open, was sacked by Ware on third down, and on fourth-and-26, Brady's completed pass came up five yards short, ending the season and giving the Cowboys their sixth Super Bowl. Thomas was named the game's MVP.

Of course.

This was a EA Simulation. Not a CATCH17 simulation.

The Lesnar fight was good and your boy Florion won too.


Florion just has better technique right now than Huerta but I think Huerta can get there.

But BJ Penn is going to smash out "Ken Flo".

I also cant wait to see GSP and Penn fight. I think they confirmed it for December 31st.

Lesnar is a beast. Should be 3-0. Stupid footlock.

Lesner vs Kongo would be fun to watch.

The ankle lock by Mir was a good Lesson for Brock , Brock v.s. Gonzaga is what I want.

Im with you.

Kongo may be the most scary looking guy in MMA but he doesn't set any kind of Tempo and just isnt aggressive enough for my liking.

If your in shape like that you should be able to just turn on the furry until the guy is either KO'd or can barely stand.

Lesnar will impose his will on Kongo and it will be game over. Hes like a 285 pound super human with Forrest Griffin stamina.

Oh and like Rogan said. Any of these 205 fighters wanting to fight at 225 with Lesnar in the division better just go ahead and stay @ 205.

Gonzagas kicks are lead bombs , he's deadly. He too has learned from an early loss/es.
