QB MUST MAKE DECISIONS FASTER

Two wide open WRs in the QB's FOV takes the sack: https://cust10.myfootballnow.com/gamecenter/view/2989#594000

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I MEAN ABOUT HOW LONG IT TAKES A QB TO MAKE A DECISION. THIS WOULD NEVER HAPPEN IN THE NFL.

Also, why is it so hard for players with 70+ catch to make catches in the open field, but receivers with high courage able to make catch after catch in traffic: https://cust10.myfootballnow.com/gamecenter/view/2989#594053

For context of why I'm so pissed off, read the Underweight DE thread again. If pass blocking is so effed, we need something to at least work for compensation.

What are you talking about?

QBs make good, quick decisions all the time in MFN.

It's not like they would just hold onto the ball in the end zone for 6 seconds before taking the game-losing safety or something.

At least this happened in version 0.4 where the "head for the sideline and wait for the sack" issue was addressed.

well 2 things about this

1. Maybe bringing the Vision Cone from Madden 06 where maybe that thing would work in this environment.

2. Well even though you say this doesnt happen NFL there probably has been times a QB got sacked and he had guys open.

i would imagine when this Overhaul WR/Secondary play in the roadmap is done you will see better play from WRS who have so high catch awhile high courage would do worse .

In the meantime maybe people should just get wrs with high courage until it gets fixed.

You have to stretch the field occasionally to make DBs respect you. Try going deep every time against my mfn 1 team. Do we play?

I'm not sure. We might. I use a balanced attack tho that focuses on short to intermediate throws, but throws long enough to stretch the field. My problem is that the QB stared at the wide open receiver and then took a sack.
