QB Hit While Throwing...

I don't see how it's that big an issue if you properly read the D and adjust your protection and routes based on them.

its not just something that happens to the user, i havent had it happen to me on offense yet, just when i'm playing D and i hit the QB he fumbles but its an incomplete pass.

I've had a few that I know where fumbles and others that were incomplete passes. I think the game and devs have a hard time programming in which is which.

I have had 4 though actually called fumbles, so I'm not seeing everyone be a incomplete pass.

Tuck rule, I guess. I don't know, maybe I'm just not as nitpicky. I've forced 3-4 fumbles with good pressure (completely forgot how def. hot routes are called...once I got that together, I was able to get my D in decent situations). But I can't say I've seen more than 10-15 incomplete that were close. I've played at least 15 games by now.

It shouldn't be a fumble when it happens nearly every time the QB is hit. Make him hold on to the damn ball. I've seen the QB lose the ball more in the few games I've played than I have in entire seasons of real football. I'd be pissed if I had 20-30 fumbles at season's end because of the way the game plays.

Actually refs blow that call pretty often on weather the arm is going forward or not. So there is really nothing unrealistic about a lot of these passes being ruled incomplete.

It wouldny be "unrealistic" if it happened once or twice a game. Unfortunately this seems to be happening 4-5 times in an 8min demo. Ive only had two ruled a fumble and one of those went to replay and was over turned. To me, it looks like the cpu controlled qb is smart enough to try and get rid of the ball to avoid a sack sometimes. However, this should be a penalty for intentional grounding. It looks to me, especially in the booth review play that I had, that the cpu qb isnt trying to throw it until he has already been hit.

yea its annoying because the cpu is throwing out of a sack at the last minute possible and the ball is not going remotely close to anyone. u never see the qbs arm even move forward at all to resemble a pass. u just crunch the qb and he lets the ball out outta nowhere and no fumble is called. i was just saying to a buddy of mine how it is really starting to annoy me and i see im not the only one who noticed how often this is happening...go figure
