Yeh, it seems like it is all based on your timing of when you throw what they'll do.

Yeah, if you want to throw it as early as possible, you have to throw when they start the break. if you throw it anytime before they start it, you will over throw it like you are throwing a streak.

No, you're not getting me.....about 20% of the time, THEY DON'T BREAK.....EVER! I'll have wideouts going 30 yds downfield on a 5 yd curl route.

Late recruits. Haven't read the playbook. Quit being a Peyton manning and just don't call those routes.

Obviously I'm playing, but I agree with the above posts. I can get my wrs to run curls. It's honestly a timing thing. I admit I dong do it often cause they do drop 90% of them. Hell even Blackmon hasn't caught one.

oh, never seen that. You'd think I would have, as much as I have been throwing it.

I'll have to pay more attention and see if it's only certain plays. It happens more on the 15 yd comeback routes than on the 5 yd curls....and I've noticed they often get jammed (which seems like the CPU does EVERY PLAY anyways) when this happens. Maybe that's the cause.

This is the only ones I've seen it happen on. But like I said it was when I was throwing it before the break started and they just kept running and the QB over throws it 20 yards.

In doing the polls you can see a trend of what this game is playing to and its the coaches that run the ball consistently, dont make mistakes in the pass game, and have very solid defenses.

Top 3 teams in the NDL in my opinion:

Bama-has a monster D, runs very well as always, and doesnt turn the ball over.
VTech-this defense is fast as hell, offense has no game breakers but also no weak spots as the running game is solid and receivers dont drop balls.
SC-one of the best runnning backs and defenses in the game.

You can see the downward spiral of coaches that love to pass the ball make their way down in the loss columns.

Parity has struck the NDL!!!!

agreed, i have 3 tiers... those 3 up there you mentioned. then michigan state, stanford and surprisingly, iowa state. after that comes everyone else.

Weasel is next to lose as he loves to pass the rock as well but is smart enough to abandon it and start running.That wont last long.

No doubt, I dont like being a part of this conversation anyway.

I've never been able to run with IU because of the crappy O-line which is OK because running the ball bores me anyway. Now I have a terrible QB, my WR's got slower and forgot their hands, and defenses have improved. I'm screwed.

I had an interesting last game. I think my opponent (Western Kentucky) was running a flex offense. There was one play where all his players came over to my side of the field and lined up. There were also 3 or 4 times where his team would break the huddle, go up to the ball, and then turn to the side and try to line up.

This game is seriously bugged.

My guys like to mill around at the line of scrimmage in a little hive-like cluster. Stupid custom PB.

Anyone that plays me, or anyone where that happens, just go offsides so the penalty can be declined and you can resume back at the play-call screen.

I hate you EA.

i like it when i'm on defense and it announces that the offense is coming out in the dreaded 4 qb 7 wr set. i have no defense for that.

Trickery!!

That milling around/7wr Set/Run to the endzone to line up (happened against ULL) is a byproduct of trying to audible after the black screen in custom playbooks... That patch can't come soon enough... it's a real momentum killer when you burn t/o because you don't want to run the one audible play it generates...
