Controls ceasing to work online?

I have experienced this.

The shot stick sometimes switches from "default" to "dribble moves only" for some strange unknown reason. If you are using the stick this could be the problem, simply go into controller settings and change it back.

It used to happen to me all the time, but I updated my settings in my main profile and it hasn't happened since.

I tried this but it didn't work, when I checked the controller settings it was still on default. the only thing that unsticks it is pausing the game. If I try to make a change with the LB while during the game it sticks again

This happened to me playing myCareer tonight several times.

I've had this happen before, but it's been a while. It seems like it typically occurs when you have the L1 playcall icons/window up and then something happens in the game to pull the icons down (such as someone calling a timeout or getting a turnover). It's almost like the game thinks the icons are still up. You can move around, but every other button won't do anything. Sometimes it goes away, sometimes it doesn't. I even had one instance where the problem jumped around randomly to everyone that was on my team. As soon as someone would get their controls back, someone else wouldn't be able to do anything. It was pretty funny actually.

*PS: That theory I mentioned above is through no manner of testing and could be completely wrong. It's just an observation/theory I've developed from the few times it's occurred to me or one of my teammates.

^that sounds like what I've been experiencing as well.

I haven't seen this happening recently. When it's happened to me, I never notice it with the shot stick, it's more with pressing X to pass the ball. Whenever I noticed it, it was when I saw an open man to pass to. Pokes' explanation seems the most plausible. Pretty sure I remember attempting to call plays as the SF in a couple of these situations (b/c I was the only one left, and randoms don't handle set plays very well, generally.)
