Need a little help. I'm losing every single jump ball on offense and defense. Is it different than last year or something?
They'll throw a deep ball up for grabs and I'll switch to that safety and position myself where I'm supposed to be and then press Y. My safety won't react or jump or anything. He just sits there. Meanwhile, the WR will go up for it come down and be untouched to the end zone.
When I'm on offense I'll switch to the WR and let the CPU do all the running and all I'll do is press Y. This time at least my player will react but I might come down with 1/20 even when I have a superior player.
Am I doing something wrong? I've tried letting the CPU do all the work and I still lose every (literally not exaggerating) on defense and most on offense.

they've significantly dropped the success rate of aggressive catches this year. It sounds like you are simply taking your defender out of position which is why you are getting beat on defense.

I've noticed the success rate of double coverage throws is really low compared to last year. Last year I could throw into double coverage all day just because I had an awesome WR. Not the case anymore.
Also, it sounds like you're struggling to play the ball without triggering the "aggressive catch" animation. Last year of your CB was within three yards it would trigger it all the time even if you had him beat or vice versa, if the CB had positioning it would go into the animation and the WR would come down with it. Positioning actually matters now that you can play the ball again without going into some stupid animation. I'd suggest letting the CPU play it until you get a better grasp on things.
USAFHart pretty much nailed it too
