5 INTs 1 fumble this week

Any advice for me to reduce the number of turnovers?

just some quick thoughts...
1. more adversity in PB - eg run and pass from same formations to make it more difficult for the opponent.
2. high INT with both QB and Pass Catchers (I could be wrong on this as there was some hint some time ago but hey, I'm not perfect )
3. (most importnat): Don't overreact on one single game!

From memory, I seem to recall that the advice for not being Intercepted too much is not to have QBs strength above QBs vision.
At the moment your starting QBs str = 50 but the vision = only 31

Also Int of 39 may be a little low for your QB

Don't know if someone can confirm these theories!

nope, why should it be a problem to have 50 STR? Don't get that...

I think the theory was that the QB throws farther than he can see.

Mind you, it seems to me that the ball would just be delivered faster through the air.

I can't find the original post, but having checked and the winners of the Elite bowl and Supercup over the past few seasons always have QBs that have less strength than vision!

Your choice on this, I guess

From the manual:

The main skills that influence whether or not an Interception takes place are as follows:

QB: VIS, PAS, INT
DEF: VIS, POS, INT
WR: VIS, POS, INT

As Int is the only non trainable skill I would want that as close to 50 as possible

Sorry, I should have said this straight away, if you are setting pass plays to pass medium or especially pass deep, this can cause the number of interceptions to rise

Wow thank you guys, I knew intelligence is a problem for me but 5INTs looked a lot. I don't remember where did I read but I gave footwork training to my qb hoping that it might help.

I guess I'll prefer shorter pass games and use same formations for both run and pass.

Thank you all for your advices

Of course opposing defenders has a big impact as well. If your WR is playing the star CB you gonna have more routes jumped!
