Waiting on the Center To make calls

I read about this on another forum and thought it was pretty neat. Did you know that when you come to the line of scrimmage and wait 15 seconds the center will make blitz assignment calls?
I tried it and it does appear the line does a better job of picking up the blitz if you wait for him to make the calls.

The only thing is that it will make games longer and you might have to add a minute or 2 on to what you play but it's still pretty cool.

So did I until I tried it a few times. Naturally the line doen't do a perfect job every time but they don't in real games either.

It is BS just an added animation EA has had in their game for a few years now. He does the same thing if you blitz on d, if you dont etc.

Re: Waiting on the Center To make calls

I read this a while ago and really don't see much of a difference. I get dropped for losses when I wait for the center to make the calls and I get some nice gains (same as when I don't wait for the center).

I'm sure I could do a deeper test at some point, but I'd rather just play the game!
