CPU is Telegraphing the Run...

All I do is blitz when the CPU selects a formation with 2 or less receivers and... wa-la!... stopped a run in its tracks. Note, that the Run blocking slider is at 100 too (and I know that block-shedding plays a factor too)! I think that part of the poor CPU running is due in part the terrible CPU playcalling, coaching, and play-adjustment. The CPU not only will not only refuse to mix up run-pass plays, but will not adjust its playcalling either.

Did you test that theory out on pass heavy teams, run heavy teams, and balanced teams? It could be the way the team's playbook is set up.
