i have 96 in vision + 7 more from va.
6 in quick read.
play is set up to cycle thru the receivers.
i'm set to open man (-64)
throwing is at 160 or 166 depending on the build for that game

so why do i keep throwing into triple coverage? there's no checkdown at all to the other players.

i also keep throwing behind receivers.

I have my QB set to -100 open man...

Though I haven't OC'd in regular leagues in quite some time, there is or was a QB check down over-ride in packages...so maybe for that specific play your OC didn't have you checking down at all?

Edit: But I see you're the OC lol.

What was your progression set at for that particular play...

in name only so that i can see what AI is scheduled

Could the QB be trying to play against the OC on his tactics?
Its not a knock as I tried Punters at QB if I ever get the chance,,,So I do not OC at All.

I feel setting custom checkdowns leads to QB "forcing" the pass to the 1st man in the list quite often.
Sticking to "reads" longer, not progressing thru the list - or at least it's very slow change from #1 → #2 → #3 etc (compared to checkdown = default).

Just a feeling, don't have any proof.

I'd assume, it's from QR combined with pressure setting.

Try 'play as usual'.

QR is famous for screwing up progressions. It's a bit late now, but maybe a truck load of Confidence could offset felt pressure and slow down QR panic throws.

If that doesn't work, you could try dialing up route distance, try +50 to see if there's a difference, then dial more or less from there.

F'n phone 15 edits later..

I have a theory!!! So, when Bort coded the game he made 'morale spirals' a part of the dynamics, right? Well... what if he coded in a reverse spiral on QB's based off of Confidence??? Consider that some QB's (RL) get SO confident after making a few amazing throws that they throw into double, triple, even quadruple coverage... then they get intercepted and, then after taking a hit to their confidence for such stupidity, they make more intelligent throws (for a while anyways until their confidence starts to spiral upwards again). Bort could've made it so that a high confidence QB that completes a series of passes gets TOO confident (spiral up) and throws a stupid pass into triple coverage, resulting in getting picked off (spiral down) !!! Something to ponder.

nervous twitch.

Let's call it Brett Favre syndrome

.....mama said it would happen if you kept doing that

Funny... that's what made me think of it.

I remember Favre driving Mike Holmgren crazy with his dumb throws.
