What am I doing wrong

What am I supposed to do about this? At the time of the read, throw, and 3/4 of the time the ball is in the air the defender is 2 steps behind. This happens so often and idk what else to do with a 99 throw power and deep accuracy qb. https://www.xbox.com/play/media/NMyUkczbh3

Use Placement and accuracy or at least placement, classic is ass at this point in the year. On those you can lead the ball further off the jump and you can use LT to freeform. Also on placement holding LB for high ball is pretty OP. On that specific play you needed to lead much more up and to the sideline.

Yeah, go into practice mode and play around with different pass leading settings. Also just some things that work against the computer aren’t going to work against a user.

I’m still having the same problem as well but with Placement and Accuracy set on 8 speed with small lead, it is a little better. IMO it’s just built into the code for balls to hang up like this at times. That throw just isn’t as open as it looks and I’ve had to really stop trying it. Running Dots and Off Platform with Cam Ward and this throw does the same thing for me 75% of the time.

When you are backing up in the pocket before you throw it it decreases your pass lead and throw power. Not a scenario proof fix; but when you have a clean pocket like you did in that video, push your stick forward a half second before you initiate the throw. It’ll make you take a step or two up in the pocket and increase your pass lead and power. Should make you hit that throw a lot more often
