What is up with the deep pass? i tried it against BOT teams and have no success,. I try it against other managers and no success. i'm lucky if all I get is an incomplete pass. I looked at a few of the top players games and didn't see any with deep pass completions . so what gives? I can understand a QB
throwing a pass up for grabs and it gets intercepted, but to NEVER have a deep pass completion???

Right now deep pass with any QB and Any WR are going to fail 95-99% and good amount of them will turn in to picks. It just adjustment that need to be made to the game it self it nothing your doing wrong. But Again the deep pass should be hard to complete unless it a mismatch that is.


But under standing the distance of the passes is why most people get mess up at.

Short pass are 0-10yards
medium 10-20yards
deep is anything over 20yards

Thanks for the reply,I changed my playbook up and took out all of my deep pass plays so hopefully my INTs will decrease. But, it still would be nice to have some deep pass completions, even if it was against BOT teams.

For medium it isn't so clear. Maybe 60-70% not completed.

I have a friendly game today and I will throw in a couple of medium passes and see what happens.

Are these in line to be fixed at some point? Seems silly to have plays that can't really be used, especially in light of how few plays are in available on that list

That sounds closer to the truth.. I played some scrimmages where I tried to set up the deep and medium passes as best as I possibly could, and even against 5-3-3 which have faced 20-30 consecutive rush plays, the passing results were dire.

And it's not down to the QB, as very few incompletions were 'overthrown', the highest % by far were 'drops' - until the drops stat is separated into actual drops and passes defended I cannot see whether it is the receivers' hands at fault, or the DBs which are overpowered in long/medium pass situations.
