Now this is one thing that I've been seeing lately in my dynasty (switched from UConn to Florida), and it pisses me off to the highest of piss-tivity. How is it that the quarterback will take off on an option, run 8 or 9 yards downfield, get crushed by a safety, linebacker and D-lineman, and still manage to pitch the ball between two defenders to a waiting RB, who has to lean BACKWARDS to catch the ball, then go scampering for an extra 20 yards?

It's not affecting my wins, but it's highly upsetting to see. I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but I've just started seeing it every game, now that I'm in the SEC.
