If I drop eight 96+ DBs into zone coverage there is no reason whatsoever that my opponent should be able to shred my pass defense, let alone have receivers running across the middle of the field open by 10+ yards.

Please fix this busted ass game.

Kthanks.

Fix your play calling, user and switch stick better, and don’t expect just because u have 8 guys back that no one is ever not gonna get open. 

Real life a defense brings such little pressure someone is gonna spring free eventually and the qb will find that guy this game is no different

News Flash, there are plenty of good wr/te as good as the defensive backs in the game.

with 8 guys in coverage, you either are rushing 2 and usering the 11th player, or usering one of the 8. Maybe the opp figured out the weak spot in the D.

Sure there are good pass catchers in the game, and with eight DBS dropped back, all of them should be nearly double covered in any type of sane gameplay.

Obviously there are weaknesses in any defense. Dropping eight guys, those soft spots should be QB scrambles or even run plays. Not passes over the middle. The game is busted.

IDK man, if I call a play with eight guys in the box to stop the run I don't expect to have to user all eight of them at the same time to stop my opponent from breaking off 25 yard runs every play. The AI guys just have to do their jobs. Expectations for pass coverage shouldn't be different.

Zones have been terrible for years. The same cover 3 cover 2 and match beaters work every year. The AI IQ never changes that’s why they added the switch stick so you can make them do what they should be doing.
