BAAAALLLINNN'
I will say it seems to be alot harder to manually defend this year (atleast with linebackers)

Really? I think I have gotten just 1 pick so far but I feel like I am doing much better this year than all of last. Dropped a pick last night that hit my guy in the hands.

Was supposed to be a hook zone. (yellow)


I haven't tried it yet, but there are some people that don't allow any time for even a single change in my experience.

Brent, put your hook zone defender into a QB spy, see if that helps.

I think it's easier than last year, 15 was really easy because you got great animations, think you get better animations this year too, feels like defenders are faster. Plus, with run fits, you know what your gap assignment is in the run game. Run fits on the backside are a little funky when defending counters, safety doesn't hit the alley and gets caught up in the junk.
 
I bought one of those taco bell boxes to try to win a PSVR. May the gods smile down upon me

Holy shit GG Drizz, i got lucky as hell on that last kick, 2 yards farther and its a shank and you win.

We both dropped passes because of that stupid rain but I only dropped 2 and you dropped 3, one of which was a first down, definitely the only reason I won

Gg. That's was the dumbest fucking game I've played of this version tho. Holy fuck. Idk where to start. Missed 36 yarder on my opening drive. That punt was the dumbest shit I've ever seen. I was running to pick ime but off the ground after the game just lets it go the length of the field without a return attempt and they blow the whistle before I even can. From the 29 to the 4 to start my final drive. Basically starts you in FG range as a result to win the game. Wtf. So many fucking drops. Pretty sure every incompletion was a fucking drop. Shit was infuriating.and then the fucking 3 TD and long conversions by you, most of which into double coverage. That TD was so fucking dumb, 3 TD and 12 you toss it to two waiting defenders they collide into each other going for it, fall, and you catch it turn around and go in for a TD. Dropped a sure pick six to end the half. Rain game with no turnovers at home, weirdest game ever. Ugh. Idk what the fucking game wants from me that was a hard loss. And I just realized you won from a fucking 2 point conversion on the last TD. That was perfectly defended but Greg Hardy lets Grifin rush around him for the conversion. I guess it's not perfect if I'm not spying RGIII on a 2 ot conversion but shit!

You played a great defensive game but holy fuck. Not one thing went my way.

Hardy: 9 Tkls, 4 TfL, 1 FF

Pretty sure I dropped more than three passes in the first quarter
