Post Weird Yards After Catch Behavior

Watching my games in the scoreboard, I've noticed a lot of plays that go like "WR X caught the ball for 2 yards, Receiver gained 10 yards after the catch". It seems like a significant number of my passes are going behind the line of scrimmage.

Agree.

Seems like there are a lot of passes caught way behind, or only a yard or so in front of, the LOS.

I had a WR in my box score who caught one pass in the game for 70 yards receiving, and had -1 YAC. Go figure.

Have you looked at your passing percentages? Seems like a lot of teams are set high on short passes, which are passes thrown close to the line of scrimage (obviously). You just never were able to see that in the old game, so when you threw a short one, most times it would be 8-10 yards, but you couldn't know WHERE HE CAUGHT IT. I have no idea about the 1 for 70 with a -1 YPC though. that's wierd.

yeah. i've had quite a few of the 2-4 yd receptions that have 12 or more YAC. it almost seems like if you subtracted 10 from the YAC it would be right. just happens too often to be realistic now.
