The Tennessee Titans Discussion

[FusionGT]

I know, it's another franchise. Let me get everything going and then I'll shed a little light on some new rules in this franchise...

Difficulty - My Skill
Quarter Length - 12 Minutes
Accelerated Clock - 20 Seconds

RULES

Off-Season
-Can only trade down to a team that is in need of the best selection available. (IE If there's a stud DT left on the board, I'm not trading down to the team with two 90+ guys)
-Can only make one bid at a player in free agency. In the off-season, I can only make one move at a player. If I get outbid, I lose. When I make that bid, is up to me, but I can only make one.
-Only one singing of an 85+ player who is under 25. Can sign unlimited 80+ as long as they are over 32.
-Re-sign players due to their play, not their overall. If my 77 OVR safety has a great season, he'll get a new deal over the 85 OVR guy that did nothing.
-Keep it realistic as possible, if a player would retire as a Titan, he'll retire as a Titan.

Preseason
-Play 2-3 possession on offense and defense each half. Supersim the rest.

Regular Season
-For 2009, I will only be playing non-divisional games. That's 10 games. Next season, it could either be that, or all games, I haven't decided yet.

Post-Season
-Play every game.

Pro Bowl
-My discretion. If I feel like playing it, I will.

lol another guy doing a franchise yay im not loner.

oh and btw good luck with it, u got a follower

Whats a matter?The Vermont Ravens not ur style Fusion?Lol.

[FusionGT]

Just felt like playing as the Titans again. Haha. Still have that franchise saved, I might just make it a simulation franchise.

I also attempted to make this as realistic as possible. I've made draft pick trades that coincide with what has happened in real life. I only did this until the third round since there was far too much to do in the fourth. Here's what has happened.

First Round
49ers via Panthers
Broncos via Bears
Seahawks via Broncos

Second Round
Chiefs via Falcons
Buccaneers via Bears
Patriots via Jaguars
Patriots via Titans

Third Round
Raiders via Patriots
Eagles via Seahawks
Browns via Jets (Conditional, Should B. Edwards go for 1100 yards and/or 12 TD, it's a second round)

The following will be updated in the OP.

My "Rules"

I think you should do a guide for franchises if you get the time, for my sake and the sake of the rest of the franchise writers around here because honestly, you're doing it better and more often than anyone else. If not that, I personally need some advice on longevity and organization as I'm starting to get ideas about diving into another franchise.

I'm excited to see how this one turns out, to see what you do with it. Best of luck.

What kind of guide are you talking about? Might be something I could look into doing in the future.

I'd say something that's a mash-up of information and personal input. Something that covers organization (HTML and table guide), trade logic, realistic settings (a rough guideline), and whatever pet peeves you have would be fine. A decent core of information for anybody who wants to start a franchise to dig into, because to be honest, this forum is pretty dead compared to what it used to be.

[FusionGT]

I realize doing a recap on a game I didn't play was difficult. That said, the divisional games will be simulated and then just a quick post up with stats for now.

[Splinter]

I also think a way of pulling together some franchise info would be useful. There are plenty of sources of info for playing a game either off or online but not so much on running an offline franchise - drafting, free agency, salary cap, roster management etc.

We used to have people like Duckfan who'd discuss their experiences in the old days when next gen was but a distant promise and I still had hair

[FusionGT]

I'll see what I can do about doing a guide. It will take a while, that's for sure, but I'll do my best to compile some information together.
