I look at it this way. This is supposed to be a football sim. In football CB's don't get a ton of sacks, with the exception of a Ronde Barber in 2005 which was an anomaly. If you look at the NFL or the college game, sacks come from DE's or LB's typically. That points to f'ed up game AI to me. You know maybe if a QB sees a CB blitz coming he might audible to the WR being covered by that CB. Or maybe he audibles to the FB or HB to stay back to block him? This game doesn't take that stuff into consideration even if you setup so that the QB can audible to keep the HB or FB back.

It is the same thing with the ROLB blitz out of the 5wr shotgun formation that will get you a sack 7 times out of 10. Screwy game AI, but then again it is a football SIM designed by computer geeks with little input from people that actually know the game of football, which is why still to this day after a safety the opposing team kicks from a tee at the 30 rather than taking a free kick from the 20. Also the fact that the only penalties in the game are false start and encroachment. No holding? No pass interference? No personal fouls? The sim needs work but it is some of the same problems it has had since inception so I don't see things improving.

and you dont see HBs leading leagues in recieving either

I think LT was the only HB to ever catch 100 passes in a season

It is supposed to be a football SIM, no? Too many gamer geeks on here to know when a football sim has gone awry.

The reason HB's get so many passes in this game is also because of problems with the game AI. The last couple of seasons screens have worked better than passes to WR's due to problems with certain coverage AI which is yet another issue with the game. So I am not quite sure why the fact that HB's are leading the league in receptions takes away from the fact that there are also way too many sacks out of certain formations.

because offense or defense isnt realistic so just accept it and stop crying

if you had an awesome blitz CB or 2 you would spam the fuck out of it.

yeah, complaining about something THAT CAN be stopped is just ridic., as is complaining that this isnt football. it has and always will be what it is, a game where you take what it gives you.

Not saying I wouldn't, nor am I crying. I am simply pointing out that the game is kind of fubared on many levels and that is coming from the perspective of a defensive coordinator. Not sure why you guys get your panties in a wad when something unrealistic about the game is brought up. I would think that if you actually enjoy football you would want the game to mirror the actual game of football rather than some Tecmo Bowl hybrid. Maybe that's just me, so I guess we agree to disagree. Game geeks like the inflated stats. Sports fans like a more realistic feel.

you see the thing is, all you basement dwelling pasty virgins just want some kind of video arcade game with rocket launchers and nunchuks, while the rugged individualists would like to see real football.
what dont you understand?!?!
