I got a ton of sacks even with pass block slider at 75 and he finished with only 120 pass yards which is probably the lowest I've ever seen, especially considering I have my pass coverage slider at 10. it was god awful and I actually enjoyed playing more with the old QB AI. lets not be so quick to praise the patch just because CPU QB AI scrambles now, its still really bad.

Your best results may be default or closer to it.
I'm going to be testing M18 for the 1st time tonight or tomorrow and see what default AP with minor adjustments to Penalties to start.

This is all I've been asking for! Let the Traits do what they say! Scramble should = Tuck & Run Often!

Just wanted to chime in and say I strongly support this approach to solving any "overcorrection" frustrations. As a Vs CPU CFM player I would much rather make individual adjustments to certain QB'S who are behaving erratically, rather than requesting another patch fix and potentially messing up what they've done. There's more good than bad in the AI qb play now, and I really don't want to see that reversed again.

About to play my first game with the patch hoping to see QB CPU play improved like most people are saying in here. I am going to try a game vs Seahawks to see if Russell will run or not. Also hoping I can see CPU with a good completion % for once has before patch ever game CPU was 80% no matter what I did with sliders.

So just got done with my first game with the patch and lost vs Seahawks 24-21 blew a 21-10 lead and CPU Russell ran like 8 times for 100 yards and he also had like 3 plays where he moved and either threw the ball out of bounds or tried to make a pass. He finished with a completion % of just 56 I don't know if I have had CPU below 65% in more then like 2 game told out of like 40 games of madden before the patch when I had basically given up on the game. So of course small sample size but patch looks to be good and may have said this game for me.

Just finished my 1st game. What a difference.. Pretty darn happy.

Eagles and Skins (I tested inside a CFM)
Right from the start Wentz was mobile.. I smiled.
Then later he took off and I stupidly came running up and he threw.. I smiled again but was mad at myself lol

I just need to work on sliders as I do coach only on O and play a D player on D with D cam.

Not saying the game is perfect by any stretch but what a difference this tweak made..

Going to play as the Jets as a bit of a test of how I can play offense with a lower rated team. My PPG with Dallas are pretty high in my test season, not quite unrealistic high, but more like "pie-in-the-sky-optimism" real-life levels. First game is against the Bills, and will be my the first game against a true mobile QB threat since the patch.
