Which mode has this happened in? Road to the College Football Playoff
Summarize your bug Cannot see run fits on defense
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? You have no way of knowing which gap to fill when user controlling a linebacker, because unlike in Madden, the pre-snap settings do not show you run fits.
What happens when the bug occurs? You have to guess which gap to fill when playing the run, which means you get gashed a lot, unnecessarily. Unless a player has years of experience playing the position, how would they know their default run fits for every offensive alignment? That's more X's and O's football knowledge than you expect from Madden players.
What do you expect to see? I expect the pre-snap menu to show run fits.

All you have to do is play the game and try to find run fits on D

    @Seasoned_Vet17 EA has zero true football knowledge. It's like they youtubed to see how football is played but the game doesn't follow many football rules. Run and Shoot and Choice routes don't follow the "over the top, stop" and "if he's even, I'm leaving" type rules etc.

    I coach offense and we use choice routes and I wanted our kids to play the game to get free reps at reading defense to run the routes, but it won't even do that right.

    Run fits is WAY less likely than it should be because it's too rules based.
