ApolloSpeed Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Just wondering if INTs of a defensive player plays a role in the chance to block a pass, when your rushing a QB ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruddog Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 I'm 99% sure it doesn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BO FB Offtackle Left Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I'm 99% sure it doesn't.You're talking about just for the cut-scene blocks, right? A block where the guy jumps up when the ball is flying over his head are affected by INT, yes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomTupa Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I'm 99% sure it doesn't. You're talking about just for the cut-scene blocks, right? A block where the guy jumps up when the ball is flying over his head are affected by INT, yes? Ok I'll take a stab at this. When a pass is less than halfway to it's target, it's blocked based on the qb's pass block rating. When it's over halfway it uses INT... uh but that doesn't explain why they sometimes miss alltogether... someone clear this up please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApolloSpeed Posted February 15, 2008 Author Share Posted February 15, 2008 its probably Pass Block verses INTs......kinda like INTs verses PC to determine a jumping interception. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruddog Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 avoid pass block only matters for guys rushing in at the qb behind the line of scrimmage.Once the ball is in the air its a matter of PC vs INT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomTupa Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 So there is a different set of outcomes that are checked for compared to when the db and wr are stationary waiting for the pass. So it is either missed, tipped, or intercepted instead of catch, breakup, int. Another good question, why are jj's always caught??? I guess it uses the "wide open" %s, like a 63 to 63 will never miss? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BO FB Offtackle Left Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 yeah on nes, too. Receivers jumo and miss all the time. There's even a cut-scene of the ball going through the receiver's hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruddog Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 It's usually only when you are throwing to crappy wr's with a crappy QB. Occasionally the QB makes a bad pass (overthrow, etc) which I think has nothing to do with PC at all. But receivers don't jump and miss "all the time" And yes most jjs are more or less openQb to open WR calculations since the db often isn't close enough to the WR.

TecmoBunny Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Bruddog...do you have a strategy to get JJ's or is it something that if it happens it just happens? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BO FB Offtackle Left Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Bruddog...do you have a strategy to get JJ's or is it something that if it happens it just happens?I think they happen more on routes where the receiver is supposed to go straight out and stop, but you throw it before he stops so he keeps going. But it might just seem that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TecmoBunny Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Bo, I definitely agree with that. If you throw it just as they start to turn in on a curl it seems they jump more often. I was wondering if people actually have a strategt for JJ's when the WR is down field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buck Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 I was wondering if people actually have a strategt for JJ's when the WR is down field.My strategy is 'timing'...get a feel for the length of time the ball will be in the air according to the position of the WR - and where you anticipate the WR being when the ball gets near him. The 'timing' depends on the QB PS/PC combination along with the WR MS (some PS/PC are better than others). But once you have a feel for the combinations and can "see" the WR even though he's not "on the screen", you will make it happen.It sounds like bullshit, but I can call it good or bad right after QB release, so it's not bullshit - it's practice and attention. I can get a deep JJ 1/2 attempts, within a range of QB/WR attributes. I can time that shit to hit the endzone from anywhere on the field.But it's always fun to pop a curl on someone.
