glad i could help.

i often use "wait .25", then "wait .15", then "move", because the "wait .5" can be a tad bit too long.

i tried it and failed.  Qb's can't punt on a normal offensive play.  So, you won't see any John Elway punts in my playbooks.

+Don't use "Line-up on" for defensive players while in the "pre-play" screen. v2.2.9 does not recognize this in the actual game.

+If you are creating a defense against 0rb, 0te, 5wr, use "Key On" R1-R5 instead of M2M. for some reason, the CPU doesn't recognize M2M for more than 4 WRs.

I tried this out, and I am seeing M2M coverage on both a 5 receiver package and a 4 receiver package with a single back coming out of the backfield on a route.

How did you have the defense set up in Man?

the def in m2m would place 2 def on one WR at times. i double checked to ensure didn't accidently put def on the same person. i didn't. maybe try "either"? i don't know. it's been a while and i pretty much tried everything.

oh yeah, it always works great in PDS, but never in actual games.

I was checking in the PDS. I'll check it in games.

Thanks.

I am seeing pretty good coverage in game.
 
The defense has to be set up for coverage of 5 receivers.
 
I tested a defensive play with 5 Either and one play with 5 Non-Backfield with 1 Backfield.

hmm...my results have not been so good. the other issue is when you have multiple WRs with the same skill (as in speed / catch) that you set your m2m coverage on.

I'll check that again.

I checked that some time ago and it would not duplicate.
