One of the things I've been noticing a lot lately, is that defensive backs are able to unrealistically react to passes. It is practically impossible for a db to be in coverage with receiver A, and then to react to a pass thrown to receiver B and be able to defend the pass.

Here's an example:

Additionally, I've seen a lot of ***** thrown to a receiver in the middle of the field in single coverage, and by the time the ball arrives there are 3 (or more) defenders on the spot. Such reaction time is impossible.

Does look pretty fast for CB Kelly. Only explanation must be his speed, acc and coverage abilities.

Off ball players are reacting quicker now. It is stronger than before. Still, not much was in favor of the offense. 73 accuracy , 50 route on a medium pass.

It looks like the db held up the WR so the route wouldn't clear. He back peddled a few yards and jumped the overthrown ball. The LB with 50 zone should have released the TE and headed for the back . Vs a better offense i see a big gain on this play here. Backs and yards after the catch are higher now. Very exploitable.

The problem is 4.5. If a WR loses That bump roll , and the a route roll he's lucky to get 5 yards down feild before the pass is thrown...especially if he is slower . Timing is thrown off bad causing these off ball defenders to look like stars. Same goes for punish .

We have no agility rating either so these guys are all changing directions at the same rate...pending size speed. Other things could be added to vary the rate of certain players reaction time.

I like the defense reacting quicker now. Under old codes alot of defenses are useless . Not only because of ratings importance but zone defenders would drop back 7 yards before reacting to the run. This area of the game is more realistic now. Allowing for a more diverse set of plays working vs. A myriad of different offensive set/ plays.
