Looking off safeties . . .

[reo]

How do make coverage think I'm going to X receiver but plan on going to the Z receiver whose on a double move streak with the defense being in a 43 cover 2? Any help would be appreciated. Pump fakes do not work. Thank you.

EDIT: This is also a problem when Y is on fade. I feel I'm lacking sufficient YAC since it is typically a jump ball even though I'm just trying to hit just outside shoulder in stride.

Tried this myself, but had no success. Seems like this in one of the things lacking in the game.

You can't, thats why happens when EA gets rid of the cone. Theres no way for the QB to look at one WR and direct a pump.

Yup, bring it back, its the only way to have tangible interaction with the safeties, otherwise they have to program them to be able to stop anything at anytime.

I say bring back the cone, but make it so one player can have it on while the other can have it off. Options are always nice

Remember when it was first made up, in creation there ws a big thing on this. actually your player looks to where he is throwing. jsut move the stick in the direction of the receiver you want to look off jsut like the cone but thres no cone. try it, it does work i forgot waht they called it some visual perception actual thign or something the eyes move to the receiver

That's not fair to the defense ; it's also unrealistic. That's like having the best of both worlds. You can use it to look of the defender, but the user on defense doesn't benefit from the ability to read the QB's eyes.
