WR's running into DB's

I have noticed that my WR's have a tendency to run directly into DB's without bracing for any kind of impact. Anyone else seeing this? I don't drop alot of passes but it damn sure looks stupid.

Maybe because speed threshold is at 0? If I raise it, I'm afraid I'll loose that breakaway speed that they finally have in the game.

Stop putting threshold at zero. Everyone is fast in the NFL, and it should be left at default. There is no reason to put it on zero. It isn't college. Guys don't simply outrun everyone to the edge on every play.

He is right.

Re: WR's running into DB's

Anything but zero puts you at risk for dealing with super-backers and turbo-linemen. Sure, everyone is "fast" in the pros but there is a significant difference between someone who runs a 4s forty versus someone who barely cracks 5.

Just to add, yes.. I've seen wideouts run straight into defenders countless times, particularly on fly routes.

Too bad they couldn't input a simple contextual sidestep move similar to Nfl 2k5 and Nba 2k14 when players collide or run into one another.

Re: WR's running into DB's

Thanks for the input. I am gonna have to keep the threshold at 0...I feel like it is very realistic that way. My slow guys stay slow, but I can feel the speed of faster players.

I'll just have to be smarter at where I throw, and how quick I change directions.

No way I played it on 0 and you don't have your faster players flying by I had to increase it to 30 to make it realistic. Ted Gin Jr should be out running most players on a KO/KR but he don't. I disagree with you just my opinion

Wait, so a guy like Ten Ginn feels faster on 30 as opposed to 0?
