Way too many dropped screens, and not just by HB's or FB's but by WR's also.

It just adds to the general state of fubar that is the GLB2 screen, on top of the 'I can't catch a screen without falling down' syndrome.

These same dots catch regular passes at a much higher rate - even when well covered.

And if you want to get all Jampy on me and tell me how it is all build related you can just save your digital breath. If you don't agree that screens are just broken right now you are a totally delusional.

Definitely appears to be a build problem from looking at some people using screens lately.

Screens still fail sometimes but they worked pretty well towards the end of seasoned and also this offseason.

guys in the pros drop screens all the time. It can be hard to catch because often the QB's throw it in an awkward way. So, its not even so much that your build might be bad, but probably that the QB's, without much velocity on the ball, make for an awkward catch. And if you build IS bad...then its even worse. So, I think its fine. I have seen about 5,000 dropped Andy Reid-called screen passes so its actually often the QB making an awkward throw that is harder to catch then you would think.

lol 3eb is right,

idk where this notion that screen passes are a 100% catch is coming from lol,

unless the blocking is perfect screens aren't at all easy to catch especially when hearing footsteps,
I think its just right in the game.

btw if your player falls to the ground after catching a screen its because either your receiver sucks, or your QB sucks, or both.

for once I agree with Jampy... I've found a few attributes need to REALLY be keyed on for screens to work... if you're seeing a ton of drops, it's your build

Well they caught 41 of 60 screen passes and only one guy dropped more than one screen pass. So there is that.

Not checking the box scores. lmao

Also, less than 10 of the receptions were dives and went no where if I remember correctly.
