Allow us to choose the target of the blitz in player tatics page. The game default is always the QB, all players blitz the QB until the handoff (awareness), this makes blitz against the run dangerous.
Sometimes the DT or DE wins the blocking interaction and goes for the QB, even when its clearly a pitch, and the carrier runs free.
For exemple: Choosing to blitz the HB, the blitzer (including the d-line) will blitz towards the HB, even in pass plays, blitz awareness would help to recognize the play and change to target the QB.
*Just one problem: This could make the D-Line kinda blind if they are blitzing for the HB and its a pass play, i can see some strange plays that all the D-Line would chase the HB on a screen or other regular passing routes, while the QB sits calmly on the pocket.
Blitz awareness should the the main stat to prevent this, but it would require some balance, otherwise very high blitz awr could make blitzing the HB very safe, as the players would instantly recognize that is a pass and go after the QB, since there is no handoff, just the snap, thus having almost 0 risk to always blitz the HB.
