If that is the situation it makes an easy loophole for dropped coverages, so I think that situation is unlikely unless it is a bug.... but I have seen my players fail to cover the man they are assigned too so????
QB is an easy example. You'd want a set for a passing QB. You'd want a set for a running QB. What would you do if a team plays a eHB at QB? Or that pHB? Or that scat FB? Or one of the 4 speed WRs? Or that speed TE? There's too many possibilities.
So what you'd do is have a p QB tag set, a r QB tag set, and then a set with no tag, to tell the Ai that if there is no tagged QB then you need to use these X plays to protect against gimmick QB stuff.
