Madden 11 Tournament: CSR Needs a Panthers Rep
The football sites of SB Nation are planning on doing a Madden '11 tournament this season. It appears that the preferred platform is Xbox 360, but there may also be a PS3 league if there's sufficient demand. Additional parameter--you have to be able to play Madden online.
Thus, if you're interested in representing the hopes and dreams of Cat Scratch Reader and your Carolina Panthers in this endeavor, please send me an email by clicking on my name to get my email address. You'll essentially play the exact schedule of the regular season which should be fun!

If the powers that be need to know:
I would jump at a PS3 league… hopefully I can become part of the ‘sufficient demand’

perfect roster
For anybody who really wants to represent the panthers in madden i have a few suggestions (what works for me online and dealing with others):
Norwood in place of Anderson at SLB
Beason back @ MLB
Davis at WLB
Goodson as #4 WR
Stewart and Goodson @ KR
Barnidge and Rosario TE’s 1 &2
Greg Hardy as backup DE for both Brayton and Johnson
Tank Tyler/Leonard @ DT (althought when roster updates happen there will be no Tyler)
ehh
some of this works. but Norwoods coverage ratings are bad. he has really good block shredding though. so he works real well on the end. Ed Johnson and Leonard should be your DTs. you should start Hardy over Johnson. His block shredding is way higher. And in a 4-3 you should have Connor at MLB, Davis at SLB, and Beason at WLB. Beason is the best in coverage. so you want him matched up with the TEs. There are a lot more substitutions to be made for different packages but I’m not typing all that. Im a level 16 and I’ve been ranked as high as 134.
I have been losing a lot of games lately though. ive been playing nothing but guys in the top 100 and they’re a bunch of nano blitzin fags. That coupled with the overthrows that have been going on, and that Steve Smith cant make a catch in traffic( or any other reciever) has been crewing me good.
I am an optimist. It does not seem too much use being anything else.

OH!
LOL!!! well seeing as how my xbox live has expired…i never made it past the all-pro stage. you’re right about norwood in coverage, but I like to leave him in there because althought he’s not as good in coverage he is the 3rd fastest linebacker after beason
also on passing downs i like to use irvin just because he has the speed of the avg qb lol
did not know about the block shedding w/ hardy tho…will def remember that next time i play
On passing downs...
you want Norwood, Brown, Taylor,…….if you are in a Dime then you want Davis on the LE. Nickel then Hardy at LE. But my Fave on passing downs is the 46 speed. you have to sub in Davis at WLB so he stays in. and do the line like you would the Nickel ( it is a nickel formation at this point) and go nuts with the blitzing. Every blitz in that formation works real well. And depending on your matchup you want to do bump and run on all those blitzes. having an audible for the 4-3 Buzz Duo is great in this formation. again depending on the matchup… you want Taylor at LE and Hardy at DT. hot route taylor to a hook zone or you can let him rush. but if they have a slot reciver on the strong side then you should drop him back. Be Godfrey, send the coverage audible to the outside and watch the right hashmarks. beast

OH!
I have the ALMOST the same system (PS3)
except, I DO use Nor"Wood" but I control him in coverages, and I blitz a lot with him.
I use Steve instead of Mike at KR an dPunt return
I do use Hardy as my backup, but I start Everett Brown
I also move Tyler Brayton to DT and start him along side Tyler
I use Captin as my 3rd Corner and my backup safety (Both safety)
I sub Barnige into all passing formation with a TE
Damn, only need 2 things...
XBOX Live and Madden 11 ;D

Im with ya
My XBox Live just got cancelled and I’m not renewing it and I decided not to get Madden 11 anyway…But I am a cocky Madden Player and probably could have won it for CSR, oh well.
