You have to reason to be worried my friend!

Seriously though, if you throw it AT DBs are who WATCHING the QB they are going to react to it and it may not end good for you depending on the player and how far they are from wherever you are throwing it. That being said the CPU still does plenty of swats, they INT gimme INTs as they should. You can still throw it on them you just have to play close attention to the defenders now.

I just had an 8 play TD drive in the 2 minute drill after having to punt on my first 2 drives against the Bucs.

-2 Yard Rush by Turner. I'm a creature of habit and still try bouncing it outside with Gonzalez blocking a LB on that side and the LB easily sheds and tackles me as my slow *** tries to pull away.

-On the next play I throw the pass AFTER Gonzo makes his break on an in route against zone. The safety over top jumps down on him but he is no where near to break up the play. But there is a LB just standing between the hashes watching me. As I throw it he back pedals and moves in front of the pass for an easy swat. Probably should have been picked if that LB was anyone decent back there.

-I throw it to the flat RIGHT away against a blitz out of shotgun to my Slot receiver. There are only 2 defenders on that side and I get 14 before I get pushed out to the sideline.

-This time I throw a slant to the right against zone between the nickle CB and the LB. They both break on it but theres plenty of space for Julio to make the catch before getting his back jumped on.

-They blitz the MLB so I try to throw it to the flat again. Except this time I'm not paying attention and it's Turner out there. He can't run a route for ish obviously. And the Nickle CB is all over him and hits him and Turner drops it.
-I go back to my trusty slot. Coming on a drag. He crosses in front of the LB who drops to cover the quick pass to the TE. I throw it out in front of Douglas and he's able to catch and turn on the LB for an extra 4. 9 yards total. Lb still makes tackle, Quick turn, quick 4 yards.

-This time I try to throw it to the flat against coverage. Everyone drops except 4. I'm in shotgun and throw it before I can even finish that little dropback step. Its 4 widetight and Roddy is on the outside, Slot WR off LOS, LT. CB lines up right over top of both. But its a zone and the CB breaks off to the flat right where roddy is headed, the slot CB is doing a purple zone and at the snap turns and sprints to the sideline. But the Slot WR runs starts out inside so he bails on that sprint and goes to Roddy. Roddy is the Only player on my team left of the hash and I'm on the right hash. The safety strafes as I throw and breaks on the ball. From 3 yards behind when the ball is thrown he takes right step, left foot plants and he dives forward with his left arm out to knock the ball down. Another probably shouldve been INT against a better team.

-I get tired of the short stuff. At my 44, I see they are in 3-3-5 nickle. This is a big zone blitz package. It's 2nd and 10, they are up by 14 with less than 2 minutes til half. Out of the shotgun Julio is the only receiver to the right. A CB 5 yards off and the S inside the numbers, 10 yards away from LOS. Pretty shallow. Rookie S too. The ball is snapped and the safety steps forward. You have to make your decision this quick, I know that since he stepped forward Julio is BEAST and can handle anyone 1 on 1. I let the hole dropback finish this time and hit the button. The CB really lost because he cheated inside at the snap and let Julio have the sideline. He his back to the sideline and is watching me throw so I know Julio can make up the yard gap. The CB turns his head for split second to go into an all out sprint and then looks back again. Julio never takes his eyes off me from the snap. The pass is perfect, the CB runs just too far and is just too small to compete with the future best WR in the NFL and its an easy catch for him but one you would never see with lower WR catch. Video coming soon!
