I could be wrong, this is just me guessing, but I think that AI might be more difficult to create, and not quite worth the bang for buck. They can just let the CPU do what it's been doing, and not worry about re-programming to use it. Although, it would probably/possibly make for better/more dynamic physics. So, in that regard, it might be worth it to them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was thinking more along the lines of being able to see where the cpu quarterback is looking, giving me the ability to anticipate their throws and get a jump on the ball when usering on defense

Cpu defenders not being able to read the quarterbacks eyes is the primary thing that broke coverage in the first place.

I think it would help the cpu passing AI. It would give them a way to make defined reads and throw the ball to the open guy. I think it would also help quarterbacks be more aggressive by reading deep to short in their progression.

Oh, right on. No, I still wouldn't think so. Again, I'm thinking they wouldn't bother with the CPU programming AI that would take. I could actually see that being quite an overhaul, programmatically speaking.

I used to love doing that with the vision cone, though. Lol. That's always a highly debatable topic, but I'm one of the minority who enjoyed it specifically for what you're saying, 'looking off defenders.' I thought that was a cool ability to use. I felt more like a real QB with that.

I have to admit, the way they've set this reticle up, not only is it going to be more difficult as they've said, I'm really curious to see/feel how quickly I can move from 1 WR to another, because the reticle is sort of attached to that. So, you're right, they could look u off if they had it, and then snap onto the next WR. And, of course, we can do that, too. I'm concerned with the timing of this thing, though. And, have a bad feeling it's going to be too slow to snap throws to the next WR.

But, yeah, actually, that would be pretty cool if the CPU QB AI actually looked u off in 1 direction and then threw to a different WR. And, here again, there's a level of distinction between good and bad QBs. They either connect it with awareness in general, or they could create a new trait:
Looks off WRs: never, sometimes, all the time
Or some variance of that.
