The Reason why there are no blocked puts and FGs....

[nighttrain32]

To the best of my football knowledge YOU CANNOT LINE UP OR ENGAGE WITH THE LONG SNAPPER. In this game, players don't line up correctly or follow the rule, but maybe if they lined up from the guard out on either side, there would be a chance of a block.







Notice the long snapper gets off cleanly

I never realized this, however, I doubt it's the sole reason there are no blocks.

PS: Is it even possible to get a block in this game?

Yes, but it isn't realistic whatsoever.

On any punt return normal play, chose the inside corner to the weakside and move him closer to where the punter is. Time the snap and dive. Works about 60% of the time.

I've seen one blocked punt this year, my team (the player was not controlled by me) blocked a punt in the end zone, the ball was snapped from maybe the 1 yard line.

Blocking FG's and Punts in this game is not impossible. I just finished my first year of a new dynasty and I blocked two fg's and one punt. The computer has tendencies when it comes to fg's and punts and you just have to exploit them.

...I just super simmed a game where I blocked 2 punts. The punter only attempted to punt 3 times... I have never blocked a single punt as a user in 90+ games...

60% of the time it works all the time.

I block PAT/FGs about 40% of the time. It's never been a problem for me. I just come off of the corner from the right side of the screen with the safety in FG Block. And this is using different players in my online dynasty.

I'm sorry but I can't comment on Punt Block because I always set-up a return.
