GG Panthers..... it was hostile environment against very tough and familiar opponents on their home turf... it was not easy and we had to scrap the W some how...... great season on winning Division and dethroning Bucs hold on NFC South.


Gutting end to the season for panthers who I think at one stage were top of league on record. Unlucky razor. Good luck next season

GG Vikes....we played pathetic on offense but our D just woke up at right time and kept the best offense on the earth away from the end zone for Bucs to scrap out another W on road. Honestly Vikes are better team but today was our day.

Great game hkp…we have resigned to the fact that we’re good enough to reach the playoffs each season by beating others but we can’t beat the big guns…because I don’t have the knowledge or energy to change things up/make enough tweaks to beat the high quality teams.
You deserved this one because you stopped our rampant offense.
Still love playing the game but I’ve accepted that the last eight is about my level.
Enjoy your run in.

Changing things up doesn't automatically equate to winning in the playoffs. I have won titles before without changing game plans, it's often about luck. For the most part, there isn't much separation between playoff teams and a lot of it comes down to the dice rolls within the sim. Just keep plugging away, making playoff runs and eventually you'll catch the breaks.

Look at my Raiders in this league. We have won 20 some division titles in a row, often with a top 5 offense yet we have made just 7 title game appearances, going 2-5 in those 7 games. Personally I feel like there should have been more, but for whatever reason (mostly because of Cleveland) that's all we have.

Good game Cleveland, I was worried about this one. Hard enough to beat you once, let alone twice in a season.

I understand your feeling.... honestly I am not a great game planner either hence I make it up by building teams that can overcome my weakness... but dont worry you are one of the powerhouse your self and keep pushing I am sure you time is coming soon.

Thanks Greg and hkp - kind words which make it sound like I was very down. Sorry wasn’t meant to be. Maybe just my way of saying hey Ho here’s to next season.
Good luck in final four guy’s- you’re really deserve it

GG Eagles.... First of all congrats to Bucs for playing their hearts out...... limiting Eagles to 10 point was not a small feat but it was NOT enough to pull W ..... Eagles is far more balanced and talented team and it showed on the field... Congrats...

We like rest of the team.. go back to drawing board to start the offseason couple of week earlier......
