QBs throwing PAST the line of scrimmage?

[rolltide1017]

So, no penalty is called for doing this?

I haven't seen it called but it's only happened to me once.

I kinda like the idea of the QB throwing past the LOS. Maybe that's part of awareness rating or something. I like the idea of it being possible to throw past the LOS because it does happen sometimes. I don't like that they don't call it a penalty, but illegal forward pass has never been called...I had some option pitches back in the 04 days go forward, never called, but I'm sure it's just a glitch...but if it were an awareness type rating, I'd like that concept.

Now that I think of it this has happened to me. Until now I just thought "Maybe I really wasn't beyond the LOS." but I could have sworn that I was ATLEAST a couple yards beyond. Lame =( I don't think I was picked but it sure messed up my drive pretty good.

It's very annoying. You can't juke, slide, or spin when you scramble with the QB a lot of the time because of this. I guess maybe its another deterrent in the game to keep the cheesers honest, intentional or not. Just like how when you run with the QB he will occasionally slowdown when you approach the line of scrimmage and hunch over.

I do it with my QB every so often by accident and laugh every time.
