What happened to my Flacco!?!

Martyr1968 said:

All of a sudden he's overthrowing passes, missing open receivers.... seems like it's since that update....

Anyone else notice anything funky with their offense?

Its actually an easy explanation…. He’s not Brady.

its also a joke

Oh I thought you meant it was an issue with the ability (meaning skill), but then I thought maybe you were saying something else...I didn't get it. Well, I will try to make various throws and see what happens...if it is just certain routes or throws. It just sucks that when EA tries to fix one thing they always seem to break something else

Brady (99 Brady) was worse for me. Brady not only missed wide and overthrew but he was throwing floating rainbows even with SFL since that patch.

But I mean, no one is Brady. he's the 2nd best QB of all time. 

You can also tell it's not Brady because when a pass rusher is coming at him, he doesn't turn his shoulder away ; he actually stands in the pocket , makes the throw, and takes the hit - which was always Brady's one weakness. It's no coincidence that while Brady certainly does not have the fastest throwing motion, he holds the ball the shortest amount of time of any QB

I'm getting Flacco today, so I hope he plays well for me

He was great when he dropped. I don't think the issue some of us are having is Flacco - I think it's something with the game itself

Your the first person I’ve seen Brady throws floaters… It does seem every qb over throws occasionally especially if you high ball when not needed I’ve noticed Or drop out the pocket too far…. What passing settings do you use?

I had to wait to get him until now bc he didnt have eagles chem before.

Precision passing, I don't throw high balls generally, usually bullet passes that I lead with precision passing. I don't move much in the pocket and I didn;t notice the floaters under after the patch. I still thought Flacco was better than Brady when they both first dropped over the weekend though.

liked flacco at first but couldnt get over his deep ball. went back to brady and he will be my qb for awhile, brady is the best in the game in my opinion.

It's like people forget lag exists on top people making bad reads and by extension bad throws.

Lag ..... I labbed this in practice mode after I saw it happen a few times in game.... the same bad throws over and over when I was Lanning it. This wasn't a bad read,  lag, etc. This happened 15 times in a row. 

It's like people don't read or think before they post

Ever since that update, literally everybody on my team is dropping so many passes. This happened to anybody else?

yeah I've been getting a ton of those the last few days. More none KO knockouts, especially Gronk has been bad for me on  in and out routes and he has 99 catching. I've had some where my guy just drops corner routes, lost last night in a game where I threw 3 TD's that weren't caught and hit the wr in the hands when he was wide open, lost by a possession. 

I think they tried to silent nerf aggs more but now if you go for even a normal Y catch not in traffic your guy just drops in randomly now.

Those corner route drops are what was so annoying to me

if I possession it on the side line it was fine still, but if I clicked on and came back to the ball and Y caught it to stay way from KO's I was dropping them a bunch even without being touched. receiver was dumbing out and the ball just bounced off his hands. Had one were it hit his hands and bounced like 5 yards to the db I was trying to avoid who pick artisted it. super frustrating that things I normal do with regularity aren't working.
