Observations from the first half of my game. More of the same.
Problems that need to be addressed:
* QBs don't check down anymore (since pre-April 1).
* QBs don't throw the ball away anymore.
* QBs don't run any more (since pre-0.4.2).
* QB distance penalties need to go away or be revised.
Problems that eventually should be addressed:
* QBs are still locking on WRs and not going through reads even when play knowledge is 100.
* QBs don't let plays develop. Some plays take longer to develop, but QBs often throw to their first or second read without letting routes clear out defenders.
1)
https://mfn1.myfootballnow.com/watch/8134#1475448a) Distance penalty on a pass that goes <20 yards through the air. The WR may not catch this every time, but he has a step, the QB is not under pressure, and the QB still throws it three yards behind the play. QB has 89 accuracy and 88 arm.
2)
https://mfn1.myfootballnow.com/watch/8134#1475449a) Both RBs are wide open and the QB throws into double coverage.
3)
https://mfn1.myfootballnow.com/watch/8134#1475453a) For a QB with 100 Release, FOV, Look Off, Arm, and Accuracy, Hunt waits way too long to make this pass.
4)
https://mfn1.myfootballnow.com/watch/8134#1475454a) Diving catch on a swing pass?
5)
https://mfn1.myfootballnow.com/watch/8134#1475476a) WR in the middle of the field IS WIDE OPEN and probably gets the first down. QB throws to a tightly covered outside WR that has NO CHANCE of getting a first down.
6)
https://mfn1.myfootballnow.com/watch/8134#1475490a) RB is wide open. TE is open. QB gambles badly on the outside route. This isn't awful, but it's not a good look.
7)
https://mfn1.myfootballnow.com/watch/8134#1475491a) QB doesn't let this play develop despite being under no pressure.
8)
https://mfn1.myfootballnow.com/watch/8134#1475494a) QB throws a dangerous pass to the short route even though this is a medium first play and the outside WR on the top has just broken down his man and the WR on the bottom is just making his cut. Timing?
9)
https://mfn1.myfootballnow.com/watch/8134#1475500a) Let's take this time to talk about fumbles. This guy has 100 Avoid Fumble. This is his second fumble this year. A guy with 100 Avoid Fumble should go years without having a single fumble. It's another example of how attributes don't match game play.
10)
https://mfn1.myfootballnow.com/watch/8134#1475505a) The RBs are wide open, but the QB throws downfield into double coverage. So right route this time, but wrong decision. The DB that knocks down this pass is 5 yards behind the play. I don't understand the physics here unless that ball is terribly underthrown.
11)
https://mfn1.myfootballnow.com/watch/8134#1475509a) QB makes the right read and 100 catch TE can't make the play? WE HAVE TO HAVE AT LEAST A FEW LONG PASSES THAT CONNECT WHEN THEY SHOULD CONNECT.
12)
https://mfn1.myfootballnow.com/watch/8134#1475519a) WR in the middle of the field is WIDE OPEN. QB throws into double coverage.
