Re: Accuracy Ratings Explained

I did some test with QB accuracy a few weeks ago and I'm fairly sure the game uses linear distance from the QB to the receiver and not simply calculating the difference in yard markers. 10 yard hitch routes to the outside receiver were routinely registered as medium passes (i.e. MAC was used) and 10 yard out routes even more so. 10 yard hitches to slot receiver or TEs were more likely to be short passes as were in routes. Also how far back the QB dropped or whether he moved laterally towards or away from the receiver seemed to make a difference as well.

That's way after doing that test I started putting most of my CFM XP emphasis on MAC since it's the range most commonly used by my QBs.
