How do you stop your defensive linemen from jumping offside with Cadence?

[xylocaine]

Prior to release of the game, everyone was worried about signal stealer harming the game. But to me the cadence thing is total cheese the way people are abusing it and there is absolutely no counter for it. At least with signal stealer they put in the audible to let you know they were able to steal your defense and you can audible out of it. But to the cheesers doing the candence thing there is no counter...

I didnt need to abuse it- I was scoring with ease against this guy and never even had to convert any 3rd downs (if I was gonna cheez it, it'd be on 3rd down, as he was doing- whats the point of trying to draw a guy offside on 1st and 10 when you figure on getting 9 yards anyway right?)...but I had his back against the wall a few times, and he'd do it to me and there'd be nothin I could do

I've had a couple guys abuse this & it is annoying. The 2nd guy kept drawing his own guys to false starts though. It was hilarious.

i have no idea if this'll work and it might be more hassle than a cure but could you back your DLs up manually before the snap if you're up against a cheeser?

You need to have Leadership ability with one of your DL's

It cuts down on the offsides.

If he keeps doing it, his team will start to offsides.

Anyone with leadership really. I have Greg Lloyd as my guy and i dont jump offsides very often. Few times here and there, but not much.

I wrote this at the 2k forums

#1 - Pick Dlineman with leadership as just mentioned
#2 - If you are in a blitz or anything other than a base stunt, you are more likely to jump.
In a base stunt your Lineman don't really give a damn about the cadence.
