Gameplay might be working as it was coded but the logic is the actual "glitch" here.. or maybe the animation should be corrected for speed (lots of them take WAY too long anyway)
When do you see a real NFL player performing a "possession" catch when he is alone in open field? I get that sometimes dudes fall down and get touched while they're down, but you can't tell me an NFL player doesn't have the awareness to make the effort to get 2 more yds for the first down. Same thing happens on the goaline in Madden. RBs keep the ball tucked when they are inches away and get stopped.... Situational awareness needs to be addressed.
