That's awesome you had him picked - he's my favorite player in the NFL right now, and it's nice to see the Browns win something. He single handedly carried us through a few of the games we won last season, the guy is a beast.

I am still boycotting the series until the bring back "Create-a-Play". Why this was removed, I have no idea.
