I'm not saying make it cheap, it's just a bit too pricey.

It's a rare thing when a WR can catch a pass totally in stride. The ball is almost always slightly off target.
Don't get me started on how passing power is so "locked in". I really wish the QB had the option to vary the angle of the throw, particularly on deep passes where a safety is nowhere to be found and my WR is pulling away. When they throw that 25-30 yard bullet at low trajectory that the trailing CB is able to swat away, a small part of me dies inside.
On the second one you know I agree with you.
I'd rather see pass power not effect distance but effect the distance at which the QB can "hum" the ball.
Andy Dalton has a noodle arm but he can still hang it up at 40-50 yards and let AJ Green go get it. He can't throw the 15 yard out on a rope though. He also can't thread it over the middle. To me passing power should have always effected reaction time on short and intermediate throws. Some of that should spill over to long balls (greater reaction time). I know there is some of that but to me not really enough.

Just looking at Cleveland and Saul. We are both at around a 15:1 TD to INT ratio over the past 2 seasons. A slight bump to INT wouldn't hurt.

Tough to say. I am not as well set up as I would like against the Air Raid's of the world but 2 is probably more realistic than 4 depending on how your QB assesses his risk.

It wouldn't hurt Saul or Cleveland all that much. But you also have to think of the non superstar QB's who aren't throwing to 4 superstar WR's.

MMA QB Big Ben is a non-superstar and throwing to 1 S* WR. Over the past 2 seasons he is around a 10:1 ratio.

I know you hate it when i roll out stuff like this but emulating so that the best QBs are at the upper NFL tier while the non-superstars are at the mid-lower spectrum would make sense to me. Superstars at 1 in 60 or 1 in 70 attempts like Big Ben, Wilson , and Alex Smith were this past season while the "mortals" are in the Hoyer, Cutler , Matt Ryan of about 1 in 33 makes sense.

Tough to really say for me right now. From the sounds of it people are seriously neglecting the intercepting skill. But I guess that a buff will just make my players that much better at it.

People are neglecting it because it is so expensive. We can't change the way people build. I have a guy on my team with 75 intercepting and he only had 5 INT last season.

I had a guy on my team who had 9 interceptions with 51 intercepting last season. *shrug*
wow - 75 is a lot higher than my guy who had 9 ints has.
must be a lot of rng involved in ints.

Speaking of interceptions. I was thinking about this today. Chase Down seems pretty useless currently as an SA. What if it also gave a boost to vertical and worked for Zone Coverage as well? Do you guys think that would make a pretty decent impact?

He was on a scrub team last season, so may have been in a lot of blowouts.

I think it should be looked at. As I said I was all for it instead of reducing velocity, making wobbly passes harder to catch (still makes no sense to me - these should be easier for both the offense and defense to catch) , and the general accuracy reduction. That said changes have been made.
I wouldn't mind if they did some analysis midway through the season and bracketed point cost towards more realistic results.

Yeah, that would be perfect if it also added intercepting.
