I am so
ing sick of running dig, shallow cross and quick fade routes. I am sick of not running real football plays, I know I can get 5-15 yards on a shallow cross but whats the point? So I have switched up my offense to only call what I deem real plays and it damn near impossible to get this plays to work because the passing game is so broken....also kinda sick of seeing 98% zone defense.
This isnt a knock on homeland but he ran what looked like the same defense the entire game. Which is fine..run whatever you want. But I hate the fact that the game refuses to let me punish anyone for running zones.
I am running trips vs his shallow cover 1 zone yet I cant seem to pull the DB apart with any combo of routes because each DB can cover 2 or 3 WR within a 30 yard radius with bullshit, "all knowing AI." Plus the routes are not timed out with the QB drop..I have thrown like 5 INT over the last 3 games simply because I am making an effort to throw at the end of my real drop instead of dropping back like 10 yards and waiting but each time I do I have a magical
ing linebacker jumping up with a spinning 1 hand INT like he was breed from Moss juice.
Not to mention you cant run a real 3-4 because there is no double teams on the line so delay blitzes dont really work.Cant run overload blitzes because the backside
ing TE will magically know and slide 10 feet over to make a block.
Simply trying to play this game like a real football game essential breaks everything and I just dont have fun with it anymore. Its great if you want to do the same 10 things over and over and call that football.
