    Is deep passing just really messed up in this game?

    I had Dez Bryant wide open not even covered 3 times in a row and he dropped it 2 times. The 3rd time he didn't even bother to try to catch it it was too easy. I'd show it to you if I could but hopefully EA fixes this? I'm playing on all madden and just turned the sliders to 30 instead of 25 and haven't messed with sliders too much but the game is fun but horky.

    Horky?

    .....
    My score for Madden 13: 4.5/10

    3 points for graphics, 1 point for the passable commentary, and a half point for the boxart. I can give no further points since the all over the place gameplay would ruin it anyway.

      Looks like he just caught a case of Limas Sweed.

        I noticed if you try to move the receiver before he fully catches the pass(unless you initially click on and user the play) then it usually results in a dropped pass. I've learned to wait till my guys have full grasp of the ball then user him and break off.
        Lineup:
        PG) Gary Payton
        SG) '95-'96 Michael Jordan
        SF) Sapphire Scottie Pippen
        PF) '95-'96 Dennis Rodman
        C) Hakeem Olajuwon

          I've noticed the same thing, it takes a lot of fun out getting YAC though.

          Also, clicking on to the WR and gently tap/release the Y button (on 360) right before the ball reaches the WR seems to help.

            If your mans wide open, just let the CPU catch it. My WR's have not dropped any wide open deep balls but I always let the CPU catch the ball.

              This. Well occasionally Torrey Smith will drop one but that is realistic :*(

                That takes all the fun out of it. For me and many others user catching is part of what makes the passing game so much fun.

                  Dez drops a lot of balls for me, too.

                    I've read a lot of people complaining about dropped user catches on All-Madden. I would just suggest cranking the WR catch slider up if you are unhappy.

                        Dez is frustrating me as well. It seems like anytime there's a defender within five yards the ball will pop out of his hands despite him have a 95 or so in Catching.

                        I'm guessing it's due to the aforementioned tapping to take control of the receiver too early. I'll try to wait even longer to take control of the Wideouts and see if that changes the results a bit. It's weird too because I haven't had any similar drops with Austin and I would think I'm switching the same between the two, but who knows.

                            Sometimes Dez don't go for fades either, you throw a fade to him by the endzone, and he wont even try to go up and get it. And I dont like it when receivers dont go for overthrown balls, they should dive for them, or atleast go into a animation that makes them look like the attempted to catch the ball.
                            To me catching is no where near where it needs to be, mainly because its canned animations. Hopefully they add the IE to receiving someday. Imagine a unlimted amount of catch animations.
