This could turn out to be a catastrophe if they did not tune QBs to get ball away:

Tuning to slightly increase pass rush when QB holds onto the ball for longer times in the pocket

Sacks could skyrocket even higher than they already are for cpu QBs.

Just a question here from someone who decided to skip M18 this year based on all the negative reviews....
Is this "the patch" that everyone has been waiting for? I thought there was one scheduled to release mid-September. Is this it? or are we expecting another one? If this is it, I will be looking forward to the reviews. I've held out this far because of all the complaints of M18 not being worth a $60 upgrade over M17.

Saw something pretty interesting in my first few minutes of CPU gameplay (Pats vs. Seahawks, Play Now). One of the Pats DL got in pretty quick on Wilson and, rather than take the sack, he fires an off-target pass that hits Malcolm Butler in the numbers for a pick 6. My QB accuracy is still tuned down so I expect throws like that from time to time, but this one was almost certainly caused by the rush.

I've got it downloading now. I didn't see it mentioned in the notes so I don't know if it has been addressed, are bubble screens broken for anyone else? Whenever I run them, the receiver just runs downfield rather than the usual motion for a bubble screen

Edit - I just played, still broken

Still no formation subs fix.

I'm about to play a game and see if fumble recoveries are being tracked, as well as kicking stats.

This is the mid September patch released a little early. There will probably be another one at the end of September or early October, per statements that Rex has made on Twitter.

Stuttering issues on PS4 seems to be FIXED!!! YAY.

Too early to tell about zone coverage though. 2 Xp so far and both were in. Hopefully they added this as well.

Sack I'm not sure since I'm playing with qb traits edited.
