Pass rush seems to be all or nothing but the CPU QBs are getting the ball out so damn quick. Did you ever experiment with your INT grounding settings? I wonder too if being on LG changes things.

Unfortunately I haven't had much luck with the penalty sliders, but I have been having some games where the QB still puts up good completion % numbers and then there are other games where they throw a realistic 20/30 or something like that..

The Pass Rush is something that is difficult because I play with the LE of the Raiders (Justin Tuck) who is pretty damn good and he gets around the edge quite a bit.. With the coverage how it is, if the receiver isn't open, usually the QB takes the sack, but unfortunately I wish there was a Scramble rating for QBs where the better the rating the easier it is for them to escape the pocket and make the play.. But unfortunately I also get the boom-or-bust sack games.. And usually Tuck is the one that either gets 0 or 3.. its ridiculous sometimes, but with the CPU Pass Block set to 100, there isn't much else I can do..

Sorry I didn't mean to sound critical. Have you maybe tried lowering QB/User accuracy below the 10 limit? I've tried a few sets which have very low QB accuracy and although you have a few more errant throws by your QB it does still seem tied to their ACC. So with Luck it's not horrendous, still get around a 60% completion rate. It does seem to finally get the CPU making bad throws too.

I'm sure the INT Grounding penalty slider makes a huge difference as well, but as with all sliders, who actually knows how it works?! :P

Oh no I wasn't taking any offense! haha I just can't figure out the Penalty sliders to save my life (and from what I can tell, not many people have figured em out either) - but I have seen quite a few errant throws by Carr (I use Oakland, obviously) with the QB User Accuracy at 19, and I will lower both the CPU and USER Accuracy to 15 and see how that works, because I am still seeing some amazing games, but nothing compared to what I was getting with the CPU Accuracy at 40

Were the last two games posted with a lower QBA for the CPU?

I'm starting to think the AI QB's confidence plays quite a large role in performance, once they get into rhythm they are unstoppable regardless of who it is. I think that fact I'm awful at Pass D doesn't seem to help. Always seem to give up the dink and dunk throws.
