What is up with the pass blocking bug?

I can't be the only one seeing this...

But multiple times in a game...a guard, tackle, or RB left in to block a DL will simply "stand there" and let a D lineman run right around them.

They even turn to face the D lineman, but never "engage".

I say this because I just watched my 89 rated Guard AND my tailback let a DT run by BOTH of them..without so much as a nudge.

It's disturbing because I see this kind of "WTF play" happen about 2-3 times a game.

I have seen it with my RB and I assumed it was a awareness rating issue. I really hate the DE pancakeing my OT and sacking me before I even get done with my drop!!

Yeah... I'm starting to get annoyed with getting sacked a split second after the snap and having absolutely no time to throw the ball... I'm already bad enough without bugs working against me.

Re: What is up with the pass blocking bug?

you guys do realize that sacks and tackles for loss happen in real life. Often times when these plays happen a couple of people miss their assignments. If everyone kept their assignment on every play then wheres the fun in that...

Yes, we do know that tackles and sacks happen. But when they happen in 4 out of 5 plays, then it's a problem. It's not like i'm complaining that I'm not getting 30seconds to throw the ball, I'm complaining that i'm getting NO seconds to throw the ball and almost every play.

Re: What is up with the pass blocking bug?

The only time I see a problem is when the opposing team is blitzing a lot and I don't have enough blockers to block everyone.

This is when the defense does line crashing by pushing L1 + right analog stick in any direction. It is somewhat of a glitch that allows the linemen to come in easily.

Yeah...but this is totally different.

I'm talking the O lineman will simply stand there and stare RIGHT AT a guy coming at them...then they will actually follow them with their eyes as the guy runs right by without so much as a handshake.
