Holding on Field Goals

This is getting ridiculous. I'm tired of holding calls when I'm kicking field goals. I just attempted a 49 yard PAT with Robbie Gould who doesn't have that great of a leg so I missed. I was infuriated. This needs to be patched.

Patch #1 coming soon will address this.

In the meantime, try rewind or as someone else said, sim it and take your chances...

I don't use rewind nor do I supersim. Good to hear that EA is actually doing a few things right this patch.

Re: Holding on Field Goals

yea i lost a ranked online game the other nite because like a good player would do...i ran the clock down and used my timeout with two seconds left before kicking the game winning field goal...but instead, EA slaps me in the face with a holding penalty, time runs out...and the game ends with no re-do of the play with the added yardage. thanks alot EA Sports...it really is in the game! [/sarcasm]

Re: Holding on Field Goals

Yea it's getting ridiculous. I didn't think it was that big of a deal at first. But now I realize that it is. It happens at least once a game. And one time, I had a 36 yard field goal, kicked it and made it. But got called for holding, brought it back 10 yards for a 46 yard field goal...kicked it and made it. But got called for holding AGAIN!! Then I was forced to punt because I wouldn't have made a 56 yarder. So, freaking, ridiculous.

Re: Holding on Field Goals

yeah, this is fairly stupid.

i dont have a problem with the penalties getting called themself - it doesnt happen to me that often (once in a few games).

my issue with it is that there seems to be even less holding calls (and barely any penalties regularly) called during the game.
