Throwing the Ball Away

[PioneerRaptor]

I really wish they would add a feature that lets you throw the ball away near a receiver. Like another modifier to the button similar to high/low passes.

The biggest reason I ask for this is that it seems like the CPU has this option. I've seen the CPU throw the ball away from inside of the pocket all the time, but they do it near a receiver, so it's okay.

However, as a human player, if you try it, it seems like it will always be called intentional grounding as your QB just throws it out of bounds about 5-8 yards down the field regardless of receiver presence.

i don't use it that often but when i've never been called for IG when i've done it.

Yea like on a screen play when the screen is clearly covered, u should be able to just throw the ball at the RB feet, like they do in real life

I am always called for IG if I'm inside the pocket and use the throwaway button. QB never throws the ball down the field towards a receiver, just straight out of bounds.

That's a good example!
