Re: Our Madden NFL 19 Wishlist - What's on Yours?

Defenders don't really have eyes in the back of their heads; they react to the receiver raising his arms to try to catch the ball. This is exactly how players are taught IRL.

It's far more problematic that a defender with 91+ zone coverage can jump routes 100% of the time as it completely shuts down legit passing concepts. I like the idea of thresholds, as I think they offer a means to differentiate players of various ability, but the upper thresholds could use some tweaking.

Maybe have a 91 zone defender have a 50/50 chance of jumping routes or they will only do so if the user correctly chooses underneath/over the top vis a vis who the opponent targets. For example a hook zone shaded underneath would jump a drag, but not the deep in that runs above it in the drive concept, where as over the top would jump the in and not the drag.
