Has anyone had this happen to them at all? Playing against Luke a few minutes ago, I'm in a standard dime man defense, Luke is in a 3-1-1 gun set. I'm controlling my MLB who is supposed to cover Addai, my dime CB on the right of the screen is supposed to cover Clark, both assignments are accurately reflected in the presnap graphic.

On the snap though, my dime back sprints after Addai in coverage, as do I since I'm supposed to, leaving Clark completely uncovered and obviously wide open. This happened like two or three times in the game in similar situations. Both teams were in fairly standard sets and there was no presnap movement that would switch the assignments, so I don't really have a clue what could explain it. It just seems like a straight up bug.

It happened to me last night between two AI defenders on my side. I was playing Ram and Heath Miller went out on a route, both Boley and Webster went after him. I'm glad he didn't notice his X was wide the fuck open. There were a number of other times that Webster was on Miller for some strange reason.

gg man. i was making some terrible throws. i guess i'm anticipating a little too much because on a couple of those my guys didn't make the cut they were supposed to.

I just didn't put enough arc on that last one...thought brees could get it over the defender. :(


EDIT: Anybody else wanna play? I need some more work.

GG Bird. The game was definitely in your favor. Two passes come to mind: That 51 yard bomb to Henderson in the first where he teleported through my two defenders to make the catch, and the pass in the 4th where Colston launched himself across the field five yards to make the play. Oh well.

My mother in-law and sister in-law coming during the middle of the game didn't help either lol.

Happens all the time. Ends up with free runners.

I'll attempt to play you again if no one has when I get on.

Kay. What do you mean attempt? I think we managed to get a full game in.

Yep, happens to me all the time, even when I set defensive assignments the game still randomly assigns people sometimes.

gg ramirez. that was brutal. I felt like the game wanted me to lose. I didn't even check the amount of turnovers I had. the last few turnovers were me being dumb (was pressing Y before i fumbled on the punt, the 3rd timmons pick).

anyone else want to play?

Eight total, lol.

My disc probably wouldn't have made it through the game, although I did throw 7 picks against FMT the other night. Pass defense is just going to get the best of you in this game when you fall behind...

Christian Ponder, 6 completions, 6 INTs. Time to give McRib a shot!

McNabb has had his chance. Overall, he's done worse. This is really the only game that has been out of control awful. I had one with Drizz earlier but every other game has been pretty solid. I was just in a funk from the start. Then started rushing throws and it got out of hand. I mean Peterson nearly broke 200 yards so it shouldn't have been as bad as it was but your defense just kept taking away my big drives as well as my first plays in a set.

the dreamteam put down again even with all the bullcrap they get every game.

thank god the eagles LB's suck complete dick in the game (as they do in real life) because their CB's stick on you like glue

tough titties! i had to kick in the wind too! and how many fucking picks did i drop..... garbo!

playing against vick is fucking annoying. he is faster than just about anyone on your D, and he can stop on a dime and rocket an accurate pass at any point. and i have yet to see him get hurt even though i got some pretty good hits on him. lower that injury rating EA!

Defensive players are more likely to get injured hitting the QB. It's not about the INJ rating. :\

But I turned it over immediately after getting into scoring position. 2/3 times in after an ap run into the red zone in a turnover. Not saying I would've scored a TD but turning the ball over after plays like that are unlucky.

GG Rors. I played a pretty confused defense most of the game. Bush held under 60 rush yards, but he did break a huge screen while rors was in a prevent.

Not prevent. That was such bullshit, lol. But I let you have those last two scores when I could have run out the clock. He stiffarmed a dude who had him wrapped already... smh

The streakiness is too streaky I think : \. I control the player after all, why's he gotta be having mental lapses. And I forgot about that ridiculous pick on the goal line!

If I had gone for the pick, it would have been a TD. I don't even know why I went for the bat, but it worked! And, yeah, the streak shit is BS. Why does my WR that has 160 yards have "drops open passes" again?
