    Does 'Tight Spiral' matter???

    Does anyone know if the trait 'Throws tight spiral' (or these traits in general) matters if you sim your games? In how far does it improve your QB?

      You weren't suppose to notice it wasn't making a difference man.

        Idk if it's pointless but if you think about it IRL, a tight spiral is easier to catch than some wobbly throw. I also would think it would affect the accuracy of the pass, but I wouldn't know for sure, that's just what I would think if it did affect anything.

          I purchased conservative pass throw and throw ball away so Stafford doesn't throw into coverage as much... and my simmed games have him throwing MORE INT's... go figure

              Its pointless, unless someone with a chart and some numbers proves otherwise you are wasting XP.

                That one is tricky... because Matt Ryan already has that trait but it is also available for me to purchase... which I think is weird. It made me start checking profiles before I actually purchase a trait.

                  You can buy traits your player already has? Awesome.

                      Yeah, I think there's some stuff that has no impact on gameplay, like Tight Spiral.

                      I would love to be proven wrong. I wish EA would show how Clutch/Tight Spiral/Throw Into Coverage/Scramble actually work, and provide some evidence.
                      Don't look back too long and don't look too far ahead.

                        How hard would it be for them to release a complete compiled list of ratings and exactly what theyre SUPPOSED to do? I don't even care if theyre broken, we could at least test them that way. I mean if a rating is used for all sorts of checks in the code you should be able to take a few days, hell a week if you want, and just kinda say what the ratings are intended to do. It would be a huge boon for the community instead of this secret illuminati bs where we don't know wtf what does what, therefore don't know what the outcomes of certain situations SHOULD BE. Hell you have a giant community of players willing to QA your product for free, just give us some information. Most companies would love to be in that situation.

                          I've been wanting to know if the player traits matter at all, when you're just simming the games.

                            Ya I ran into this with Matthew Stafford too. I checked the traits and it said Throw Tight Spiral YES but when purchasing upgrades its in there as one you can purchase. So wtf.

                              Not near my PS3 right now but im pretty surer traits show up on the menu but if you already have them they are locked and you cant actually spend XP on them.
