When you go to use your team in a matchup, for your opponent use the search function, dream teams, and put in usernames provided. You can then select your team

It looks like the Packers have been getting a lot of preseason action from you guys. The 68-24 record it says they have is promising though...

Alright guys, I'll run the opening games when I get off of work tonight, so make any changes to your depth charts/playcalling before midnight. Good luck!


Mecca, can you run Patriots @ Packers (70 degrees)? You can either do it tonight after midnight if you're around or when you get up tomorrow, just PM me the results. I'll post all of the results once I have all of them. Thank you in advance, sir.

When you go to run a game it will give you the play calling options and depth chart. Change it to what you want and your changes will become the default.

The play-by-play recaps of these games are way more entertaining to read than I expected them to be.

Ouch--Broncos have the edge in total yards and TOP but lose by double digits thanks to four turnovers. I don't know why WhatIf deemed Emmitt Smith the POTG for a 3.3 YPC performance, and an even worse 2.4 YPC excluding that 18 yard TD breakthrough. I'd figured it'd go to whoever pick sixed Elway, but maybe that's more bias against the defense.

I guess the good news is that the entire AFC got curbstomped--it's feeling like the 1980s.

Man, my defense really came through and we didn't turn the ball over once. That 2nd quarter was pretty much impossible to come back from for the Broncos.

The secret weapon on my team is Dan Bailey. Interested to see the longest FG he attempts/hits.

Yeah, WhatIf made some weird choices on POTGs. Jim Taylor and Barry Sanders were ok choices, but Dick Gordon got it for the Bears for a single 72 TD catch over Payton (who ran for over 100 yards).

Going into Mile High and crushing the Broncos makes your Cowboys look like the (very early) team to beat right now, followed by...

All they needed to do was stop Ahman Green on that third and nine with 1:57 left and Brady would've had a chance to work some magic.

Mecca, is there a way to insert more lines for WRs and RBs (I'm terrible with excel). I need to add a few more for my RB receiving totals and my QB/WR rushing totals.
