It doesn't happen in all pass plays, but there are some, if you have targeted WR1 or in other WR2 it tends to throw to them no matter what. Switch up the check down and it doesn't happen.

Ever since they changed the progression stuff maybe two seasons ago. It's very frustrating.. should think QR helps but no.
Obviously it depends on the plays, but there are quite a few plays that I used 2 seasons ago that can't be used anymore, due to the QB not progressing. I'd be using a lot of more the playbook if QBs could look beyond the first target.
I guess it's one of those tricky things to nail because a few seasons ago it was impossible to get the QB to ever throw to the first progression without a heavy blitz.

Well that was still relatively easy to control, since you could just use WR1, WR1 or whatever. If you do that now, no chance the QB will ever progress.
I don't doubt it's tricky to get right, but I'd take what we had in S31 over the current situation any day.

i think i would agree, i'd rather be able to force him to stare at a guy myself and have the option to look around.

Ya you could go WR1, WR1, etc...
However that would just result in the QB staring down a WR for fucking ever until he finally made the throw several seconds after you wanted it to happen. The new progression stuff was something I had been wanting for awhile as it is a gameplanning thing. If you don't want to hit target 1 don't use that guy as a target.
