Nothing is funny at all, all this junk has ruined my online experience. Run commit works against pass AND run. There is no risk/reward just reward/reward. This is a cheesers dream and being that I have the integrity not to abuse this "feature" I see no use in online gaming.

this happens in Madden also, the only difference is the lineman dont shoot off the line as quick, i just tried it earlier.

Really? Reward/reward? Try picking run commit on D to the left and watch them run a hb toss to the right....good luck catching them.

At first I really liked it and said as much on this board. Now, I don't use it at all. It is far too effective and it feels like I am cheating when I use it. Hey I need an int... I've got it~ I will tell me DB's to go for a pick

Thats the point its not called to the left or right all you have to do is call run commit middle and it's gold

run/pass commit is a not a bad idea that has been poorly executed. It is TOO effective that it's cheap. I never use the commits simply because it's too much of a guarantee that the play will get busted up by my defense. While I like to make stops, I don't want it to come cheaply.
They need to tone down this feature's effectiveness, or just get rid of it because it's just too cheesy.

I don't know if this is post-patch, or i didn't know it before, but run commit is extremely risky.

If you run a pass play and they run commit the flats, and the deep ball are wide open. Even in a cover 3 i got beat run commiting deep.

Hopefully they did fix it so you'll get burned deep. That would pretty much make this feature an actual risk/reward thing instead of the reward/reward mentioned earlier.
