This is after you downloaded the patch? It was supposed to be fixed in the 2nd patch...

I haven't seen this.

Yep, downloaded the patch this afternoon. I had to rewatch it several times because I just couldn't believe how many guys kept getting knocked down. One guy got knocked down 3 times, it was just bizarre.

I'm at around 5 guys on average getting knocked down when kicking off and I'm lucky if even 1 of their guys get knocked down on my returns. It's driving me insane because the CPU is getting to at least the 40 yard line every time they return a kick. It's so annoying.

Can you tell me what you have run blocking set to? That makes a big difference, although the patch was supposed to fix that.

Everything is set to default. I played against Ohio State, Virginia, and Florida State in my 3rd year of dynasty with Duke (B in everything). I've got plenty of highly rated players on special teams and they just get knocked down by everyone, it's crazy.

I'll play a game later and try to upload my kickoffs just to show how bizarre my kickoff experience has been. It was terrible before the patch, I had a game where the opposition returned 4 KOs for TDs and each time had double digit guys getting knocked over. It seems to better overall with the patch, but I'm still having problems with multiple guys (at least 5 every kickoff) getting knocked down on each kickoff.

And yes, it's entirely possible that I suck at the game, but it would seem like I would get lucky at least a few times without guys getting knocked all over the place.

I hope this doesn't become a frequent occurrence but I've had two separate instances in the same game where an interception resulted from solids phasing through another solid. First one, my receiver gets in front of the ball and it slips through his fingers, through his neck and into the DB's hands. Another one was a jump ball, my receiver had the extra step on the DB but as the ball was dropping into the WR's hands for a spectacular over the shoulder grab, the ghost DB caspers through him and snatches it while my receiver falls backwards like a grenade exploded in his face.

As promised, here are the videos. The third video where the Miami guy takes it for a touchdown had 15 players get knocked down. Unfortunately because of the camera angle, you miss several of them while the Miami guy is running down field.

For the game, my team knocked down only 1 Miami player in a 41-38 win on kickoffs. Miami was well into the 30-40 range, maybe more as I only have the kickoffs up to the start of the 3rd quarter. But there were several more crazy instances of my guys getting knocked down. Now for the evidence of my terrible defenders getting bulldozed...

Man, that is so uncool. Problem not solved, evidently.
