Can the CPU Defend the Read Option

I'm noticing in my offline franchise (All Madden) that the CPU gets gashed by me when I run the read option. I average 9 YPC on that play in my current CFM, and I also get pretty big yards on the rare occasion when I scramble outright.

My gut is telling me that the CPU lacks the wherewithal to call the option defense adjustment or that the QB pursuit AI for LB and DB is just not there, but I wonder if others see the same thing, or if I'm just getting lucky, as it were.

I might run the play 3-5x per game with Fields, so it's not my whole offense by any stretch, but the yards I get there do inflate my offensive production substantially.

I'm considering just not running the play, but again wanted to see if my experience was the exception or the rule.
