I know! That's what really bugs me. Receivers just don't try to get to passes nearly as hard as DBs do.

Re: Anyone seen the Diving Catches??

I only saw 1 diving catch in my time with the game. However, I was relieved that it didn't happen too often. I was so afraid when they first showcased diving catches that they were going to happen all the time. I really didn't want to see 5-6 spectacular diving catches a game.

I was surprised that I never saw a "stretch" catch though. Those ones where the receiver doesn't leave his feet, but has to stretch out to catch the ball and looses his balance immediately afterward. Now this is something that happens quite often in football.

I agree. I think that receivers are broken. They are so insanely passive while the safeties destroy them time and time again. I've hit guys in the head maybe five times where they don't even attempt to catch it. Not to mention the large amount of times that the defender jars the ball loose on contact.

But back on topic I hate getting behind the defender only for my qb to overthrow by about 3 yards with no dive attempts

yea i dont want it to happen all the time either and im more looking for the "stretch out" catches to happen more than anything. like u said they happen all the time IRL but i havent seen any new ones. the only one ive seen twice is the overhead one where u throw a deep ball on a streak and they stretch their arms out and then fall over on one foot and roll forward...but that is the same one that was in '11.

Re: Anyone seen the Diving Catches??

i have not seen any either, i thought maybe it was because i try to always switch and user catch i may have been messing it up. when i do attempt to catch or dive half the time i end up with alligator arms or the ball hits my WR in the side of the head and he does nothing. hopefully this is something that can be patched, it almost feels like a delay in the button pathing.
