Welcome to the "bug box" - this forum is a place for you to post bugs in the game engine or in the user interface. Please try to include as much information in your description as possible, and link to any plays, so that we can investigate the issues. Note that MFN staff may not reply to these threads, but we are monitoring them.

Not sure if this is a bug or not:

This type of thing seems to happen very often:

http://cust12.myfootballnow.com/watch/172#39512

The pass wasn't intended for a player near the LOS, yet a defensive lineman was called for holding. I would think the lineman would always been "engaged" with the opposing player, making this something that could be called all the time. However, I don't think it should be called at all in this situation.

This happens so often I sometimes find myself hoping my QB would just throw it into the line so I can get a free first down.

I have never noticed this before, but its an interesting play. I will look more, because my QB throws into the line sometimes too I just dont remember any penalties, but without paying attention I could assume any holding calls would be called on guy related to coverage.

I see the game calling the hold on the DT cause the back had a chance to catch the tip. But, no normal coverage penalties apply after a tip. Its like a fumble, maybe the DT pulled down the back as the back leaped to catch a high tip, a penalty by the way of obstructing his path to "live" ball. That would result in a legal call, but defensive holding call, maybe not. Still, a stretch of even my imagination. Its most likely related to coverage penalties still "on" even after a tip. That DT was nowhere near the TE/ slot. Still its all a guess because this is only one play.

3-10-PHL 45 (0:07) 3-Ken Obrien pass complete to 86-Dennis Dunn to PHL 0 for 45 yards. PENALTY - Offsides (PHL 56-Jessie Diaz)
Offensive Play: Singleback 4 Wide Deep Middle
Defensive Play: Dime Normal Man Cover 1 - Pass Key


Is this a bug? Surely the offense should have declined the offsides and taken the 45 yds?

Before this thread gets too crazy - please post a new thread for each bug so it is easily identifiable.

Thanks!
