Cannot Control Receiver After Ball Thrown or Receiver Doesn't Run Route

Product: Madden NFL 20
Platform:PC
Which console generation do you have?
What is your gamertag/PSN ID?
Date/time issue occurred 8/4/2019
What type of issue do you have? Gameplay
Which mode has this happened in? Franchise Mode
Which part of the mode? Cloud
Summarize your bug Two times in two different games I have switched to control a deep receiver and the receiver did not respond to my controller actions. They actually veered toward the post slightly and kept running essentially taking them out of the play. Both times it was the B receiver on an Xbox one controller. Both times the receiver was running a streak. Please fix this!
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? run 4 deep plays and throw deep to the B receiver. It will eventually happen.
What happens when the bug occurs? The receiver veers toward the post slightly and keeps running essentially taking them out of the play. The last time it happened I actually gained control as the ball was tipped by a defender.
What do you expect to see? I expect to take control of the receiver immediately after selecting them. Just like any other player on the field. Also this form is bugged. I had to fill it out twice before I could submit it.

     This was happening so much in MUT challenges today I gave up playing the game. Sad.

  • Happens all the time dumb, cant even make a play on the ball easy interceptions because of bad gameplay.

    I’ll try to get a video but here is basically what happens. (Sorry, my girlfriend didn’t know what she was recording so was all over, but you’ll see the idea). You pass the ball and select the receiver and boom, in that moment he takes a complete b-line straight to the post. Everytime.

  • It still hasn't gotten fixed, especially playing squads online if you try to use control the wide receiver going deep you have no control of the receiver it gets stuck running straight no chance to even catch the ball easy interceptions for the opponents.

    Yea it's doing it for me. I'm an old school madden player. Not being able to control my wr is a deal breaker for me. It doesn't make any sense. They got rid of that feature because good players figured out how to run under the ball? That's what wr are SUPPOSED to do.

    Everyone told you it happened to them multiple times and im sure everyone is speaking about it on other platforms.. its happening on every game mode, from online to exhibition to practice. On every system especially Playstation 4. And we also lose a lot of connections in Mut Head to head & draft and get hit with a loss eveeeeryyyy time when we should get a win an its been like that since online play started we spend too much money and grind time to get treated this way. When it comes to you guys fixing gameplay issues.
