Whether he is blocked or not, the slow down is ridiculous. A slight slow down to alter angle and go around the blockers would be one thing, but they come to a dead stop. The ROLB basically stops pursuing the HB. The FS and RILB basically come to a complete standstill. And to make it more ridiculous, the RILB knocks the CB off the block so that the WR can block him instead.

It is complete nonsense. If the players were in a tight space bunched up near the LOS in the middle of the field, it would be one thing. However, this is the open field and defenders just run right into engaged blocks like they don't exist.

Whether they were actually blocked or not, 5 defenders were effectively stopped by 2 blockers.

Slow it down and watch again. If these players had agility to adjust pursuit angles or vision to take better initial angles they wouldn't be stopping or slowing near the blockers. They have to slow down that much to avoid an object in their path.

what they are trying to tell us is...the O players are allowed to run and see threw a blocking exchange but....the D players are not allowed to run or see threw the same exchange.

O players can run threw other O players.
D players cant run threw other D players.

Thus a built in advantage for the Offense....which is working as intended and might have been communicated to defend it at all cost, no matter how apparent it looks to be.

bottom line....its a horrendous code, but its their sim.

Also, for everyone, a bit of a reminder of what real football looks like.

There are a bunch of plays in this Adrian Peterson highlight video from his high school days with a ton of players taking bad angles, I will find a few from the NFL to show you guys the proof is in the pudding.

Here's one..

Barry Sanders video showing players running into each other and falling over on the very first run..

To conclude..

A player aligned on one half of the field typically can't make it over to tackle outside pitches to good HB's, and part of the reason is due to getting stuck inside. Hell, there's no referee dots on the field to get stuck on either, imagine if it was more realistic and that was another thing your players had to dodge?

My response to your responses..

Players naturally on the weak side of a play aren't supposed to just high tail down field in hopes the RB will keep going straight, there is a such thing as a cutback lane, and someone has to take it. I'm not saying this is why Bort made it this way (because I dont know), but I like to know some weakside players will follow the play more laterally as it progresses, dots do a pretty good job of guarding the cutback.. So don't like your LB's and DE's getting stuck inside, and watch some of that video up top to see the opposite side field safety getting caught in on the action. A player will never 100% make every play perfectly, Dot's at all levels shouldn't either.

I vote all links listed in this thread do not fall under the Bug category.
