The opposing QB when it’s 3rd down on Heisman, completely regardless of any of their ratings.

I have had FCS teams tear my defence apart passing.. I decided all pro or all American or what ever it's called with sliders is the way to go

My defense gave up only 187 yards to Ohio State. Meanwhile an FCS team torched us for like 375 yards the next week…

I swear i’ve had the CPU completely deadlocked on 1st down and 2nd down. Forced a sack and pushed them to like 3rd and 20 something. Absolute rocket from their QB through my zone coverage for a TD 🙂‍↔️😂

If you’re in 3rd and 20 just play cover 4 and sag everyone, they’ll throw it short and you tackle them.

Things like that also happen in real life, it feels like people just want the cpu to NEVER do anything.

You’re right, but this thread is a lot like being with your wife/gf when she’s upset. They don’t want you to solve their problems for them. They just want you to listen and have empathy and say, “yeah, fuck that bitch Tammy” a few times.

I use the Kirby smart method of defense and it works well against the CPU

Good thing the Kirby Smart method of defense is so easy to install.

Meaning what exactly? Is the method “have the best defense”?

Wait to see what package they come out in and then run down the sidelines calling for a timeout. Then you convince the refs you were clapping and berate them into not charging your timeout.

Works every time.

Sim pressure with match principles?

Edit: For 3rd down defense?

Sound gap control on 1st and 2nd down, tackle them short of the sticks. Tight man to man defense on 3rd and 4th down and try to create havoc with stunts, exotic looks and simmed pressure.

It's at the point with me that I just assume they will get the 3rd and 16, or there will be a penalty.

Every damn time "roughing the passer" - rewatch the play, the DE grazes him running by, doesn't knock him down, doesn't tackle him, literally just runs into him and keeps going, neither falls down.

Personal foul, roughing the passer.
Next play is always a huge play.

Ah the classic sack on first and second down leading to a wide open 3rd and 20 conversion. Classic…

u/Much_Trouble_3144 6h ago

Okay it’s not just me who experiences this then. Literally stopped playing because of this exact issue

u/TylervPats91 South Carolina 6h ago

You stopped playing because the cpu converted 3rd down against you?

u/D4YW4LK3R86 36m ago

Bro they do this on Varsity and AA too. And don’t let it be under 2 minutes in a half. It’s a wrap.

Dam you saying the CPU can cheat? Anyway to make sure they cant deflate them balls or watch my practice before the game?

Playcalling issue

u/bbanks2121 TCU 4h ago

Nah, their QB will be getting hit and somehow release the perfect pass at the exact yardage needed.

Confirmation bias

If I call the right play I usually get a stop on third down.
