Should the pass rush vibration happen on the QB's blind side ?

[Netherscourge]

Yes - I think it should be based on the QB's awareness rating.


Elusive QB's with high awareness ratings should be able to "feel" pocket pressure, even if it's from their blind sides.

Statue QB's, like Kurt Warner, should not get much notice. They aren't going to avoid sacks like a Donovan McNabb can.

QBs can still "feel" the pocket closing in on them, and that includes their blindside.

But I definitely think blindside hits from a guy coming full speed untouched shouldn't have a rumble warning.

This is a fabulous idea. In my perfect madden there would be NO vibration on the blindside. You'd have to watch that side yourself if you want to avoid it. Keep the threat of those bookend pass rushers real.

I think it should depend on the awareness rating.

I think that would be awesome.

man i love it. all this strategy now comes into play because we finally get a pocket! i love it!!!! been waiting years and years and years for it and now we get it and it looks gorgeous

Overall the feature should work like this:
The better the QB awareness the sooner the rumble feature kicks in. For a right handed QB being rushed from the right it may rumble 1 second before contact.If the rush comes in from the blind side it should kick in just a split second before contact is made giving the qb just a split second to react to the pressure. (This would simulate that just sensing danger feel that some QB's get)

It should depend on QB awareness.
