My concern is if a nano is found that is unstoppable, then you have this forced drop back scenario + unstoppable nano which ruins the entire game for a whole year... seems pretty risky. Hopefully they allow this feature to be patchable in case something like that occurs.

This is a hard one to deal with because currently awareness of a QB picking up these blitz during play just doesnt matter. Manning is obviously nearly 100 Xs better then Alex Smith when it comes to reading plays as they happen and adapting.

Maybe they could make awareness matter as to how quickly you can break out of the drop back? This was Manning with his 99 awareness has almost complete control of what he does where Smith looks like he is getting nailed by teh blitz because he "cant" read the blitz coming?
