Can a Reciever BOBBLE the ball...and are their legit fumbles?

there is no such thing as a backward incop. pass a backwards pass that hit the ground is a fumble.

I am loving the variability of the physics in this game...I crave playing it just to see new things happen!

I've seen a couple of vids on here with the ball getting jarred loose with hands, arms, and elbows. I've also seen helmets knock the ball clean out of the RB's grasp. That's right, put your helmet on the ball.

No-one said there was.

I havent put much time into the demo but I did see a WR flat out drop the ball. It hit him in his hands. I thought for sure when I threw the ball it was an easy TD because the defender was 10 yards behind him. The QB under threw it and the WR turned back to catch it on his outside left knee and it bounced right out of his hands.

imo, its a weird feeling when a receiver drops a catchable pass in this game.....

you work so hard in this game....to move around in the pocket and not get sacked....to focus and find the open man.......to complete a key pass.....and then your dummy TE just drops it...

It almost feels like when Vernon Davis used to drop passes a couple of years ago....you are like COME ON MANNNNNN We needed that..... *sigh*

I haven't had it happen often, but when it does...it is pretty disheartening.
