The only route that I may can agree with him on is the hitch. The defenders are there really fast. But on other routes, I dunno man, I just can't. One night in an online game I had 489 passing yds and 6 TD's with the Seahawks. That's what's stopping me from agreeing with him because alot of that was run after the catch as I was using the West Coast playbook that night.

That's online. I play off-line only.

Dunno then if you guys are just so good players that you can get the ball in there in just the right time but when I'm playing I can't see how that's possible. I throw a pass to wide open player who's running, say, a drag route and it's right on the money. After this there's immediately a defender in there. This happens every time when I throw to a guy who would have space to make some moves after the catch.

I sure as hell don't want YAC always even if there was good space. But right now I don't even get control of the player before he's tackled.

If you're not seeing this, what do you do diffently?
