I am having problems with passing but i think i have something that can help ...

[espnnfl2k5rosters]

when i am pssing the ball i will find a wideopen reciver running down the field i will lob it and ethier it will be cought or it is picked off or nearly picked off... now on another play it is the same play i called earlier and i say well this time i will throw a bullet and so i find him running down the field and he is wide open so i throw a bullet and he drops it ... but he really doesnt drop it but it just hits him in the shoulder or in the leg and he just stands there and looks at it ... so i decided to just throw lobs now cuz he really allmost never catches it unless it is a lob unless for instance i do a slant or even a curl route i will throw the bullet but other than that if i throw a bullet any other time he will just flat out watch the ball hit him .... it really angers me. any one have this problem. also i think this is already been said before but i couldnt find any so i just wrote it up!

In this game you really need to move the Human Catching all the way to 40, then put Human Passing between 3-6. You'll get much better results this way. You still cannot throw bullet passes to Backs out in the flat or receivers with bad Catch or anything like that, but the better receivers and TE's can catch a bullet pass. Not every single one mind you, but with far better percentages you see.

I keep all the human sliders at default Legend and max out the CPU sliders. I'll drop passes but its because my timing is off since I manually catch the ball myself.

Ya I love the pats and I want to be able to throw for like 400 yards a game but I can barely throw for 200 yards a game. My throwing percentage is about 35%. My recievers drop the ball ven when they are wide open. I don't know what to do. And I don't want it to be too easy. I love it when it comes down to the final drive. The 2 minute drill you know. Any suggestions on the sliders to make my passing effective?

Yea, some slider suggested before should work, user catching seems big to me. I almost alwyas user catch, espicially on deep balls, the one thing that really bothers me is the passes to the flats in this game, it is the one thing that this game lacks.

how do you user catch the ball
