Having LB's cover most WR's step for step is silly, and it really takes away the importance of calling the proper defensive formation / personnel . Lowering the threshold just makes the game even more "arcade - like" . The discrepancy in speed with TE's with decent speed is just too great for many LB's and speedy WR's and HB's (especially on screens and flat passes) just plain dominate. Very unrealistic. The middle is where it's at my man. I've played a lot of games to test and validate this opinion, and I've also pulled out the old stop watch to further prove it. Take care man.

Sounds like valid reasoning, and with that said ... what sliders are you playing with? I literally just picked up M11 tonight so I'm WAY behind the curve this year! Hoping to minimize testing so I can settle on a slider set and get a franchise going (only play offline). Thanks again for any help!
