Re: Outside run blocking.

My biggest complaint with this year's game is the pathetic/horrible/embarrassing/atrocious run blocking.

Re: Outside run blocking.

Hey guys, it's been acknowledged that there is a run blocking issue. It doesn't happen every time. Lineman get confused when Linebackers start getting close to the line. That's why you will see them sometimes spin around or not know who to block. I believe this will most likely be patched in patch #2. It will probably be a couple of months.

Re: Outside run blocking.

This won't change until they do something with the playbooks. The paths and assignments of blockers is just off.

They should use that exclusive license and talk to some NFL coaches about line interaction and how plays are called and blocking is assigned.

They need to change there whole offensive and defensive front system. All about the gaps!

1. Dmac is a God in this game.
2. I have used that exact same run against multiple teams with the Cowboys and Felix Jones, and the defensive end gets engaged and sheds the block towards the outside EVERY time. For some reason Felix Jones can't beat a 280lb DE to the corner, even when the DE takes a bad angle.
