Interceptions can be FIXED

I think the fix for interceptions is simple.

When I used to play Madden, I could drop back 15 yards close my eyes and throw a 40 yard strike. If you read the defense and stop making careless throws, you won't have as many interceptions.

Every time I try to force the ball to my reciever, my chance for an interception makes complete sense. When I make reasonable passes, the defense react realistically. This is the greatest, smartest, football game ever!!!

The answer is change the coverage and throw better passes.

Re: Interceptions can be FIXED

Wait... People are complaining about throwing too many INT's? I'm playing with Dallas, original roster except I picked up Josh Harris and John Navarre (60 and 59 ovr, I think) at QB off Waivers, with default all-pro sliders... One game I went 8/9 for 125 and 2 TD's with Navarre (only played a half) and another game I went 16/25 for 230 and 2 TD's with Harris. No picks, either. Are you all playing on legend sliders or something?

I agree, but it doesn't help coach mode play. I'm sitting here right now watching my 95 accuracy QB's throw 4 INT's in the first half. There just doesn't seem to be a solution to this problem in CPU vs CPU play.

actually i think most people are complaining about the cpu throwing too many picks on all-pro default sliders.

no problem. it does get confusing because there are so many ways that people play. i had no idea that people would enjoy watching an cpu vs. cpu game. well, people do and tweaks need to be done to make that playable to them. there are people that think people like me that play 99% of their games controlling one team against the cpu are crazy. they think, 'it's so boring to play against the cpu all the time!' so their tweaks need to take into account human vs. human play.

so you'll see a slider set or a suggestion on tweaking attributes, try the changes out and wonder what the heck the person was thinking. then you'll realize that the tested at cpu vs. cpu or human vs. human...doh!

i've been playing my last few games on a 'crib multiplier' of 1.62 which puts my settings more or less right in the middle of all-pro and legend. i've also set the interception slider to zero. i have had some really bad games by the cpu qb and some really good ones and you wouldn't guess who had what game by the names (harrington ripped me up a couple nites back, i totally shut down trent green AND priest holmes last nite for example). i haven't felt that interceptions or overall db ai has been a problem but i understand the complaints some have.
