It appears that QB's cannot throw to receivers or backs that do not fall within their custom progressions. Allow a vision check for a QB to see a HB/FB/TE/WR that is screaming I'm open. Currently if you use custom progressions, and dont have a dot in the progression... he doesn't exist to the QB.

alternatively; expand the custom progression slots to more than 5... that should allow you to add the missing player to the custom progressions.

I don't know about this one as whether a QB sees a open receiver or not depends on many factors in a play. If they implemented this it would just make the passing game more wide open than it already is after the nerf to ball hawk. Your scouting should really dictate your progressions, not the game itself IMO.

+1 to more flexability in the custom progressions tree. even tho they think its too "complex" for our dumb azzes to understand

+1 but only in relation to the Open Man setting. If I put in a check down that shuts off a short route on a 3rd and long I would be annoyed if the QB threw the short route even if that guy was open.

Yes but of all the goofy things in GLB a QB not seeing an open receiver is one that actually happens even in the NFL. But it does seem to happen a great deal more in GLB.

you know, im 99.9% sure that the QB can see wide open WRs
even when they aren't on the progression already!

It's called quick read. Works like a charm if you stick a lot of points into it the SA.

I didn't think Quick Read (or anything else) let a QB see a receiver not in his progression.

QR allows the QB to go out of order in the custom progressions, however, it still does not allow you to throw to a receiver that is not part of those custom progressions...

Solve this by expanding the custom progressions to allow you to put all eligible receivers on it and let QR do its thing.... The way progressions are right now you are almost forced to put a target into the custom slot at the very least twice just to throw him the ball... expand that slot and allow us to dump a RB at the end to be able to be seen by QR
