Anyone explain this to me:

Right, not that the result is important (scrimmage game)but what are our Safeties doing on this play:

Not sure about the SS here but the FS is set to Close/Aggressive. Walking backwards out of the endzone on short yards with no-one in the zone is just baffling!

I am pretty sure this problem will be solved by advanced defense tactics next season. Looks like the sim didn't differentiate between a regular coverage play and a goal line play.

That's "FS walking the line", see

(basically a medium to long pass defense play and the safeties get caught up at the line for some reason)
