Anyone else’s CB having issues with Pick Artist?

Man played 3 games in a row and Woolen and Branch had easy picks and just swatted them down with 2 hands. They both have PA and it is active Safeties worked fine but I haven’t had issue or seen that same animation that many times consecutively ever on CBs with PA.

Yeah I’ve been saying for almost a month now they shadow nerfed pa cuz my cbs with pa just randomly swat shit for no reason

Agree. Had wide open picks and safety just one hand swats. Terrible

I believe you for sure haven’t noticed it too much but man for 3 games in a row they were obviou picks when they threw the passes I was like hell yeah and just a jump 2 hand block like they were playing volleyball or something

That’s not a pick artist thing, pick artist doesn’t make them more likely to attempt just more likely to hold onto it

pick artist just looks cool. It does absolutely nothing

Yeah my DBs have been swatting balls away like crazy lately that are thrown right to them its driving me nuts

Ya I’ve noticed that i thinked they nerfed it

For sure it's been nerfed. Lattimore and Charles Woodson haven't been able to catch anything with PA the past few days

I noticed a change in defensive back play almost a week ago. My guys were playing well, now they are not. They aren't covering well and they either drop balls that hit them, or they are swatting them down like you stated. Knock out is still working too much magic. A receiver can catch the ball and if a defender barely catches up from behind it is still easily causing a knock-out. I am not certain if defensive strategy items are working properly all of the time. If I switch them out it seems the boosts may be working for a game, but they seem to have no effect after that. 

I feel that EA needs to tweak the game play to make it more realistic.

Ive noticed  the same thing with Woolen swatting an easy interception the fact that we even need pick artist is dumb to begin with. 

luckily Woolen has been the only one who’s done it. He did make a crazy diving interception so it still works just not all the time

100% fax this years Cover Def is the worst its ever been and nothing you put on DB's will help.The only thing that will and is going to help is if EA makes a different code.It's been this way since day 1 of 24

Yup it’s been swat city with most corners recently. If their back is turned slightly  hey just smack it down.

I've been clicking on and going for it myself more lately. Earlier in the year this was almost always a catch for the other team's receiver so I stopped doing it and let the CPU do whatever, but it seems to be working somewhat better lately.
