You must be switchin off the defender for the cou to tackle
Oline is the worst thing on here. A qb should not be getting hit on screen passes.
Man it's pissing me off that the RB runs into the office linemen when running a screen
Tony D'Amato
It's all about the inches
I've seen instances where it lookslike the rb is trying to block the defender instead of getting out in his route. Shyt is infuriating

I'm so pissed. Needed a 2 point conversion to tie. Called a WR screen. Both of the other two receivers literally run right past the only defender out
Maybe RB screens, cause WR & TE screens are always an automatic 8+ yards for me.

Word… plus I can no longer audible my RB if it involves play action. It’s like the fix something and then break something else.
This got me a few times earlier.
There are a few PA plays where I sometimes hot route the RB to block. I called the play expecting to do this, then got sacked due to the long PA fake.
and I agree, the HB screen defense seems overturned. Maybe the were too easy before, EA just flipped it instead of balancing.
Patch is meh, and I hate how they always emphasize new uniforms but I can't change mine in H2H.

Yeah something changed. I'm scared to RPO screen or bubble plays cause the WRs consistently whiff now leading to the CPU jumping them for easy pick 6s. All of a sudden can't stop the run without selling out. Getting shredded on the ground. Pass block still horrible meanwhile my defenders can't even get of a block in 5+ seconds. Also seems passing out of an RPO has gotten a lot more sensitive. Rarely ever had a problem getting the pass off now half the time I'm still handing the ball off even though I'm hitting the pass button. I'll mess with sliders but about to give up on this.

shyt is irritating man. So much done changed after the patch.
Can't run in btw tackles anymore. Can't execute screen passes. DBs can't break on the ball against the CPU WR when they run a comeback route.
Lastly this really pissed me off. Got called for personal foul late hit out of bounds when my safety just barely pushed the WR out of bounds after a catch.
Yet the CPU has 3 defenders tackle me all the time when I step 3 yards out of bounds and there is never personal foul called

Yeah man, I mainly pass block the tv for play action plays because it buys time especially against the AI. I hope they fix this soon. Totally ruins a couple of good plays I run.
Defensive AI is so trash. So many broken plays when I call a zone (which is 99% of the time) but one guy decides to go man and completely abandons his zone area, which leads to a big play if not TD. 
Bout to sell this shyt.
