Players Usering WRs running into your DBs so they are out of the play?

Is there a strategy for these guys who are glitching this?  Obviously, this should be offensive PI but its not.  Do you user your DB and just try not to get defensive PI?  This is why I despise H2H play, it is glitch central!!!!!!!

Ok that's a dirty move, but how do they even pull that off? Is he using the WR between when the ball is thrown and when it's caught and bumping your DB then getting back on the ball?!!! If so, that's crazy stick skill but still dirty. Lol.

Yea man its crazy, he knocked my DB off the ball like 10 yards and turbo'd back for a wide open reception. I would disagree with people who say the 'game sucks', I think its the people who suck  LMAO

EA should really fix that to be offensive PI for sure.

People do indeed suck @osucollegebuckeye LMAO -

Yeah thats been a dirty glitch all year, even experienced it in CUT25

They wait until ball is in the air, push the defender off and go back to the ball for an open catch

Had a guy do this to me yesterday, then also block my extra pts......in the weekly Ultimate Legends event....like dude if you want the win that bad go for it. Usually why I just go ATQ in the legends event. get my packs and move on

Some of these kids should be working for NASA  lol  Like Lethal said the stick skills are impressive.  I can't even do a manual press coverage at the LOS to try and throw off the timing of a route.  haha

Often times, they aren't really pushing the defense off, the defender is just programmed to follow the offensive player to a degree. They will swerve inside to get the defender going that way and then swerve back with  extra space to make the catch. The "swerve" has been a part of EA games for at least 7 yrs.

It is less prevalent now than it used to be. You are correct in assuming the best way to combat is to click on and run directly to the spot the ball is going. 

Not directly related but in the same family: if you are defending a fly with the better position (deeper than the WR), you can click on and kinda pull up to shield the WR from the ball. I get lots of picks that way

So you’re committing DPI and getting away with it for picks ?  Shielding and slowing to prevent a receiver from getting to the ball in 100% DPI.

Isn’t that exactly the scenario we are trying to avoid and condemn here ?

I completely disagree with your interpretation of DPI. If a DB is running away from an offensive player and slows down, it is not DPI, it is simply smart positioning.
