Today I was so bored that I found myself playing with a tennis ball and throwing it up at the ceiling in my apartment. Luckily I live on the top floor and didn't have no one to complain about the noise. Finally I decided to play some Madden 11. I hadn't played it for a while. When I say a while I mean I haven't played it since January. I think I was in a slump losing at the time. So I popped it in and immediately went to play online.
I figured I'd test my Madden chops and see just how decent or fairly decent I was. Of course I had to play with my beloved hometown Indianapolis Colts! The best team in the NFL, yeah! lol My opponent picked none other than the New England Patriots. It was definitely the perfect rivalry game to play. The game started out smooth and I was at ease. The first quarter went really well. I was definitely holding it down with the defense. I had my online opponent locked up. He couldn't throw to any of his receivers without me trying to make a play on the ball.
I even played the ball on 4 down in two possessions with flawless completion. I was definitely on "No Guts No Glory" mode. With about a minute and a half left in the 1st I had scored my first touchdown. It was a bomb to Pierre Garcon on 4th down with a huge blitz coming at me. Luckily I got it off in time. I definitely thought he was gonna play the pass but I guess I got away with one. Lucky me. That's when I felt I was getting back in the swing of things. I thought it was going to be a close game because there was no scores made in the second quarter. Finally the guy I was playing against got one in the third. After that I thought it was gonna be a serious game.
Right after he scored I had score once again with ease. This time it was an open strike to Dallas Clark. After that it was raining touchdowns. I didn't even get a TD catch with Reggie Wayne. Three of them went to Dallas. My defense was really focused. They were flying all over the field just like they do in real life. They were fast and quick to the defender and the ball. I even got some nice picks. One of which I had a decent return. Addai got a decent 11 yard run TD and the rest was history.
There's a method to my madness and I don't want to share my trade secrets. lol I'm just happy I got a win after a long hiatus from playing the game. I finished on top with a blowout win outscoring my opponent 35 - 7. So if you own a PS3 and you catch me playing Madden hit me up. I'm up for the challenge.
Here's some video of 2 of my highlight touchdowns. Get @ me! ;-)
