Yes, the distances are shorter, and therefore the timing is another

Oh i think i understand: So it makes more sense (and the engine accounts for it) for rush plays in the flanks from formations like pro set and wishbone that have hbl and hbr than running them from I formation that have the hbc and fbc.

Is that right?

PETE if a D keeps getting burned on these plays, will the engine adjust

if a team is gaining alot of yards per carry going around his LT, do the defense take preventative measures to stop this?

The current engine does it a little, and we are working on an u p d a t e for making it much harder to win by "one sided" or "all rush" attacking
