Admins stated that strenght will help with the deep pass and agility helps avoiding sacks.

Since deep pass plays have just one result at this stage (pick six) we'll have to see if it means the passes go even deeper or the deep passing will be more accurate... (Hope and guess it's the second option)


The factor out of passing and strnegth raises the distance that is considered to be a safe pass, a likely safe pass, maybe, hail mary and so on...keep in mind, the receiver....

Okay..
QB(1): 40 passing 30 strenght
QB(2): 40 passing 50 strenght

I choose the deep pass option, the receiver is the same.

Lets say QB(1) passes safe for 25 yards, relatively safe for 30 yards and hail mary for 40+ yards.

Maybe QB(2) passes safe up to 35 yards and so on... But he will still be able to go hail mary!

Of course I want a strong quarterback, who passes deep but I also want him to throw no interceptions. So the question is:

Is every QB able to throw (e.g.) 50 yards and the stronger he get's the lower is the interception-risk? Or is there a ratio safe/relatively safe/hail mary every QB throws when "deep pass" is chosen and only the distances vary?

It is both

the distances raise per stage, by this he is becoming more "accurate/safe" on passing. But keep in mind, accurate passing is only one thing to determine interceptions. tactical skills on the defender play important roles here, too...

Yeah, I know. Just wanted to know, how it would be under laboratory conditions

Later it will be nice to have scrambling QB. So you can use also a QB with cap below 40 in strenght (I have 2 of them )

Yeah, I agree. I stated before my QB has Speed 48, but he decides to scramble rediculously rarely, altho he's got the best rushing average on my team. It would be great if there was a playbook option that allows the manager to a l t e r the amount of QB scrambling.

Of course! And why not? Any team in the world would exploit the strengths of their players.

We have to be careful on what features we are offering you. This is why we limited the number of blitzes, why we do not offer dedicated positioning settings per position, this is why we do not offer a formation editor. This scrambling setting has to be well thought, so it shouldn't be possible to set this to "scramble every play", es example.

Increased risk of injury to QB when carrying the ball?

Would that be enough of a deterrent?
