That was one of the comments I made actually. Too wide and too slow forming. DE's engaging way too early. It's almost as if the Tackles are going to control the A.I controlled DE's. Now I know the higher rated tackles are supposed to steer lower rated defenders wider, but man that's hella wide. Right now there are only two things I really need them to tune and that's the speed of the pocket and make sure my Dlinemen have movement against the run when I call crash right/crash left. If they can give me that, I'll be able to do most of what I need to do on D.
