I thought WR blocking was fixed?

I've never seen what I'm seeing now where literally the blocker is just running straight down field after the snap, and I've played dozens of games, I think this is something new, of course I could be wrong but I have not seen this before.

Well it appears on the option plays that the wr's are supposed to block down field/run down field. Problem is that the db's don't follow the wr's. At at least lb's and d-line don't react to option plays instantaneously like they did pre-patch
