Thats from SP, but it happens the same on MP. I had a similar play after a screen pass. How come with 4 deep guys a screen pass can get more than 40 yards!

Any time I face a 3rd and long at Solevision after 2 great def plays I know that if I dont get a penalty I will allow 20+ yards on the air. Any tips?

4 Deep is poor against short throws which is what they're hitting you with. Unless you're in 20 yd+ territory don't run 4 deep, run 3 deep on passing downs. And don't be afraid to still go with M2M and BnR depending on the skill of your CBs.
