Check out the LDE. The routes WRs/backs take after they catch a screen is just broken all to hell

Does it even in the Rookie leagues:

Bug ticket submitted just to see what they say about it.

I think the RG needs to stay in and block and only the RT TE and FB go out and be screen blockers. Or the FB stays in, the point is they need an extra blocker to hold off the DE's in the WR screen plays if the WR is going to run that direction after catching the pass

The WR shouldn't be running toward the LOS is the issue.

IMO its mostly about the ability of the WR to cut after the catch... those plays as drawn have a route moving inward, and then after the catch they try to move upfield but their momentum carries them further toward the center than ideal.

doesn't happen on other screens (HB, FB, TE and a few WR screens) where the initial path/route is outbound

that said, some WR screens work just fine as long as there is someone at the end of the OL to block--if they're held up by a defender then its trouble.

I would think 90 agility and quick cut would keep him from acting like a dumb ass and running into the Dline versus going forward where he has 4 blockers to 2 defenders

My WR has 98 agility and I've seen him do this.

Thing also is that it doesnt happen every time. Just occasionally. Makes no sense.

Screens have been pretty bad for some time. I'm sure the admins are aware of this issue.

Nothing can prevent sim flaw.
And there are 3 defenders, what make you more angry is, 4 blockers can't hold 3 defenders to tackle your ball carrier.

Be aware but just keep it and do nothing?

Some screen plays are totaly garbage, watch the play below:

think id blame Center getting manhandled and QB with prob ~15 speed. But yeah screens are pretty damn bad...

build fail there,
but you're right, the HB/FB screens ESPECIALLY are garbage.
