That's another thing that irks me about this game.


Receivers are so passive when it comes to catching the ball, allowing DBs to get in front of their routes and get a pick.

Exactly. It's ridiculous. You cannot have only defenders fighting for passes, make it balanced. If you throw a hard pass to a guy being covered, 9 times out of 10 the DB is either knocking it down or picking it off. So we can only complete passes to wide open guys now, okay.

Yeah I'm done with online play other than the NT league for the foreseeable future. 26 games played. At least 17-20 against cheesers/glitchers/5 money play guys.

How does a LINEBACKER make a 1 handed Moss like INT catch? Like really?

How does a defense not recognize the same plays? Same alignment and same direction?

Suction blocking is STILL in as well. Instead of running to the ball my idiot players run to blocks or they're not using proper containment.

Play action is pointless. Either no one bites or the defense is sacking you.

The Zones are trash. Plain and simple.

They duped me again into thinking I would be playing football. Nope. Open field tackling is straight 3 day unwashed !%* sweat.

I'll request you tonight and I'm almost to that point. I'm going to be learning how to user catch because the computer is slow and passive. What pisses me off is the damn d-line pressure. They get to the QB like its nothing and why is the o line A.I. terrible? They'll watch someone sack you. The A.I. all around needs a bump.

this.

same gripes about the WR thing as well, and damn, this game moves FAST.

This is exactly why I don't even try to run online except against NT, OS or friends.  Sounds like the same problems that have plagued Madden for the longest time.  
I agree with you on play action too.  I never run any play action because it just doesn't work in my opinion.
