I was wondering if it was possible to maybe have a setting where the CB plays between the WR and the QB during the duration of the route, rather than giving him that much room and basically giving them a free catch? I realize that it is a build issue that my CB didn't make a play on the ball at the last second, but I feel like there should be an option for the CB to play underneath the WR rather than outside all the time so he's always in position to make a play on the ball (and also get burned deep) rather than only having a couple ticks window to make something happen. It would also make being a shutdown corner more meaningful, as the QB potentially wouldn't throw that way if the CB was right on top of the WR.
I've never seen a CB play underneath WR's on a go route when he wasn't getting burned by the WR, which kind of defeats the purpose of my CB's high speed build, since I feel he can run stride-for-stride with most WR's. I know you now have them play the underneath on slants, but wouldn't it make more sense to have an underneath/above option so DB's can select based on their builds?
You want coverage distance to be allowed to go negative maybe?
Yes. I would love this.
It's obviously not viable for every CB build (especially not those that are more balanced towards AGI) but for CB's made pretty much specifically to counter the 150+ speed WR's hitting the WL soon, it would be immensely helpful.
EDIT: In case you don't understand wtf this post is talking about, Novus explains it here: http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=4341350&page=2#39055780
