For most players that pride themselves on being Sim, people always claim that on ball defense is a cardinal rule. Arguments range from:

-I don't want to play against the CPU
-People play the lanes too much
-people play zone/illegal defense too much

I'm not a fan of this rule to begin with, but now I don't even think it's fair to use anymore if the other player is using Total Passing Control. If you have to guard the ball carrier, you're not necessarily guarding the guy who the other player is controlling.

And the ball fakes can put lane campers in line.....

I pretty much believe this rule is obsolete now.
