I figured I would start this for the guys playing online for Madden 08, whether it be on 360 or PS3. I had my best ever today during a game with a MM approved member and I was in the Tryout room trying to get approved. Well the guys record was something like 141-180? but he was pretty good.
Anyway, I have yet to lose and was going for my ninth straight win (record says 9-2, my friend lost one on my acct and I got a disco up 42-24, so really it should be 9-0) but it turned out to be a great game.
McNair continued to play like shit for me and threw two interceptions that got returned back for touchdowns. But my defense held me in this one with one of their own and shut down the Cowboys offense. I had a chance to take the lead on one last drive under 2 mins when Demetrius Williams dropped a third down pass that was an easy first down, forcing me to punt. The game went into overtime tied 21-21 after I stopped him from driving down field for a field goal.
I got ball first in OT and drove down the field quickly. Anyway, I got to the DAL 36 and attempted the game-winning field goal and missed, due to Stover's aging leg. Even with great field position, he held the ball on running plays until the end of OT. As we went into second OT he began with a 4th and 2 first down conversion. At the BAL 40 he would go for another 4th and 2, only this time I read him perfectly. He came out with the same set he had two plays earlier, and I had a feeling he was going to pass through the middle. With me controlling Ray Lewis the entire time I covered his slot receiver and intercepted the pass.
That led me to drive down the field once again for the game-winning TD and the 27-21 win in 2 OTs. It was only my second 2 OT game in Madden ever.
