Run Blocking Is Literally Broken

@Ndiesel1 I was fine running out of I formation before the patch. It's much more of a game issue than just formations and a lead blocker.
@Thunda3986 I completely agree but a lead blocker seems to exacerbating the problem, like my current game if I run a HB stretch I have an o line that picks up the blocks at least for a moment, but if I motion the TE into the backfield the center completely releases the DT into the backfield and the TE runs by him to the next level and picks up the LB. I tried this several times, ran the replays, restarted the match and tried it again... it happens every time without any deviation. There's a clear assignment issue happening when there's a lead blocker because the center just doesn't block anyone. There's also some sort of interior and exterior line issues if you ask for double teams on runs to try to prevent it.
