QB Sneak Play

I've noticed that it is nearly impossible to get a QB to rush the ball in this game and I was curious about the prospect of adding a QB sneak play or something to give a QB the ability to run or scramble out of pressure. Just a thought!

THey used to have a qb sneak on mfn but it was too easy. According to JDB it would get a few yards every time and a team could just run it over and over again and never be stopped. I think that's why he removed it. I do think more plays are needed to take advantage of mobile qb's but adding to the playbook doesn't look like something that's coming anytime soon.

Yeah I was worried that it could be problematic because it could get easy gains and be abused, but I just think that fast QB's on run first teams aren't able to be utilized to their full potential especially those that lack great throwing stats and rely on their speed

ya i think along that line more plays that use speed or power can make players of different skillsets stand out a little more instead of all the players running the same plays. I'd love to have an offense running zone read and bubble screens. As well as have a jet sweep or rb screens. There's so many types of plays that will open up the playbook to take advantage of different kind of players.
