Coach Mode needs fixed

Product: EA SPORTS™ College Football 25
Platform:PlayStation 5
Please specify your platform model. Sony PlayStation 5
What is your gamertag/PSN ID? JDB1985x
Date/time issue occurred Ongoing issue
What type of issue do you have? Gameplay
Which mode has this happened in? Dynasty
Summarize your bug This isn't a bug so much as senseless game design. In Coach Mode the QB will not move in the pocket or scramble on his own. Also he appears to not perform read options correctly, as he always gives and never keeps. The packet behavior of not scrambling and taking sacks has always been an issue in Madden when using Coach Mode setting, but never has read options been an issue until now. Please make this mode make sense by fixing this issue. Many of us want to only call plays as a Coach, and we need our guys to perform the play. We want to control play calls and audibles and hot routs, but let our players execute. If there is a reason these issues exist, please give us an actual proper Coach mode where we can play this way. Thank you
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go into Coach mode and test it.
What happens when the bug occurs? I don't think it's a bug, but QB doesn't play the position right.
What do you expect to see? I expect to see the QB execute the plays correctly, including moving in the pocket and scrambling to avoid sacks when necessary.

    @IrishBuckeyeHeelI will add the QB will not execute HB screen passes either. He will not throw it and take a sack everytime. The expectation is the QB behave exactly as an AI controlled QB player would behave. Make the correct read on option and RPO plays, scramble when appropriate, execute screens correctly. We have no desire to take control of the player in this mode if that is causing issues. It's coach mode. We want to call plays and the players execute based upon their ratings, abilities, composure, etc...

  • Also would like (in coach mode) for the AI QB to set protections. Have it based on AWR

  • I'd like to add that coach mode in NCAA 14 worked perfectly. Is there a way to make a "coach mode" toggle in the "Playstyle" option before each game? 

  • It's obvious that since this was posted over a month ago, that EA doesn't care. They've put out a highly flawed product that they should be embarrassed with. 10 plus years and this is the best they could do? Basically, College Football has gone Madden, and that's not a compliment.
