I just played a play now game with GT. Every single time the WR's were supposed to block someone on either the speed or triple option, they just streaked downfield, and didn't block the DB...who as we all know crashes the play to begin with.

On a positive note, the spread option game appears to work pretty damn good...

First off, bravo EA. The gameplay feels SO much smoother, and i'm not being sarcastic, second off, i'll play a game with GT against alabama and see if WR block

Seeing same thing, wr just runs past the db hes supposed to block leaving me completely defenseless

wr blocking seemed great on sweeps, run plays, but run a speed option to the side with a wr and you will see what we mean

also love how when you pitch the ball, the RB just watches it go by him.

Anyone try editing WR awareness & run block ratings to see if it would help? I might try this later today if I get time.

Have yall tried hot routing the WR to "block"? I used to do that all the time and it felt like it worked on previous versions.

I just subbed in Tackles in the WR spot so there would be no uncertainty as to the WR's ability to block correctly.

Did not help one iota.

Thanks very little EA for leaving options totally un-useable. Why not take slant passes and HB dives out of the game, too?

Or maybe screw up the no huddle?

So stupid.

In the play call screen, does it have him blocking or running up the field? If running up the field, he was doing what he was told.
