I learned it wasn't random at all... I came across this thread and it broke my heart lol. The CPU pattern I'd identified was completely a glitch and many other dudes has picked up on the same thing. Skill wasn't the reason I was suddenly tossing for 500+ yards a game, it was a glitch. I've never been the type of gamer to say "rabble rabble, if [this] isn't fixed I won't waste my $60!" (partly because I always wait for gaming deals, but that's besides the point), but the DB glitch really ruins it for me. If you want to self-govern it, you have to alter your gameplan and eliminate certain plays/routes that might benefit you... ...**** it I'm rambling and need beer

You mean it was a glitch all along & you didn't outsmart the CPU - please tell me no! What's next?!? No such thing as Santa???

Tha's what ppl don't understand. Not everyone wants to play in a league believe it or not. Some of us just want use the little free time that we have to play an offline user vs cpu dynasty, but those days are dead in the water for a lot of us. Some ppl are still enjoying it so hats of to them.

I have not heard reports of it, but you better hold out on buying it until others post their findings.

That could be somewhat neutralized by controlling the DB yourself, but then again this more of a games vs. CPU issue anyhow

How can I control the DB when I'm on offense? I'm not talking about the human team DB's glitching out, I'm talking about the AI opponent.

I know but you were responding to someone that was referring to it not being an issue with OD games, where the games that really matter are against other users. Pull your claws back, I'm on your side with the DB Glitch. I was more or less saying don't sweat it when it comes to OD games against other users cuz you can offset it

EDIT: you said even those games come down to a situation where 4 verts is needed & you score a cheap TD to win, but a smart user would be on a DB in those desperation plays anyhow

I know not everyone wants to play in a league. I was just saying that's the only reason I bought the game.
