Byron Jones playing Man

[webbjay82]

Anyone playing with Dallas having the issue of Byron Jones beimg a complete liability in man coverage? He is the the only CB I'm having this issue with and it doesnt matter who he covers. If it's an underneath route he runs up the field 5+ yds and then turns the opposite direction before responding or if its a deep route then he will turn back towards the line of scrimmage. And let his guy run by him.

He's fine in zone and the other corners who are a lot lower rated dont have this issue. Its very confusing.

I just started a Cowboys franchise and havent noticed anything too bad from him

I'm 3 games in. Nothing out of the ordinary stands out with his defense

Maybe its just me. Seems like he gets hung in man coverage and forgets for a second who hes supposed to cover

I have no issues with him in press man coverage, while utilizing shading techniques pre snap. There are still issues in my opinion when playing off man coverage.

I play as the Cowboys almost exclusively and Byron Jones is a bonafide weapon for me in zone and man.

I signed him to my steelers franchise as an old man because he had shutdown corner ability and he got me through a year when my corners were week then retired. He was the best corner i have had on the steelers so far though i have had higher rated ones as he was only a 78 at that time if i remeber correctly.

Not sure if this is relevant here but there was a bug at release which made CBs run in the wrong direction briefly in man coverage , this was fixed though in a recent patch

This is a huge piece of it....press and off are playing very differently right now.
