Is it me or do the Safety's seem to look lost on alot of Replays this Season? Specially the FS's.

I only notice it when playing against the very slow, high catching WRs. Some reason the FS's dont know how to react to them and are off in the middle of nowhere doing nothing.

yea, it's mainly in Zone Coverage but even against Running Plays, They sometimes even go the wrong direction?

And yeah that is what I was talking about. Safeties in Zone vs slow WRs look lost.

Here are examples vs slow WRs. Not sure ive seen the bad play vs run plays like he mentioned.

FS and SS - http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=2355595&pbp_id=2153225

There are many more, and several from every game. Just seems like the Safeties if in zone play way too deep vs the slow WRs. Its like they are programmed to think the WR is faster so they are playing where a fast WR would be. But since the WR is so slow it basically turns it into 1 on 1 coverage and take the safety out of the play.

Most are in Private Scrimmages. But here is one PLay. After the Ball is thrown, The FS just keeps going downfield? I know this isn't a good example and I'll post more but just seems strange to me: http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=2353789&pbp_id=2540615

If he would go forward when the Ball is Throw, He would have a Pick looks like.

Do you have them set to Deep Zone? I've tried mixing that up and in the 4-4 Big, The FS just sits back there and does nothing, lol.

On one Play he just kept running to the Weak Side and it was a Run to the Strong side,lol. Whether he was whatever type Arch-Type, They shouldn't do that,lol.

what are his tactics?

Yes to OP.

Safeties on my team are looking as stupid as ever! Not sure why

It's just you (and Jampy)

I can't find that one that is 4-4 Big vs. Big I but it's a Sweep to the Strong side and the FS goes toward the Weakside until after the Back has already turned the Corner. I'll be sure to Post plenty of Replays from now on.
