RPO play question

[Huskereurocat]

I know this sounds silly, but how do I make the determination on what player gets the ball after snapping it? Right now the PC makes the determination from the get go. I never know whether the HB is going to get the ball or my QB needs to find an open receiver.

pretty sure you make that determination. press A to hand it off, or throw it quick enough not to get an illegal man down field penalty.

i haven't had any issues with this on PC.

Have you been in Skills Trainer yet? The running concepts section breaks down the reads on RPO.

It's not too unlike the option reads - watch what a particular key defender does, and make a decision based on that.
