Summarize your bug: While playing an opponent online I can tell when he picked a running play and when he picked a passing play. I can tell by simply holding down R2 (Coach Cam) on defense: If my opponet's receiver's names show up under them, it's a pass play; if the receiver's names don't show up under them, it's a run play. Also when I'm on offense they can tell whether I'm running or passing the ball the same way I exlained.
How often does the bug occur?: Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves?: Play a game, hold R2 while on defense, let the opponent hike the ball and see for yourselves.
What happens when the bug occurs?: Football is supposed to be a game of chess, not checkers. So knowing what your opponent is doing and your opponent knowing what you're doing is game breaking to say the least.
What do you expect to see?: I expect the opponent's receiver's names to show under them while holding R2 EVERY PLAY whether it's a run or a pass.
If your game crashed, about how many minutes were you playing before it crashed?: Didn't crash.
What is your gamertag/PSN ID?: DasBlu1

Did this issue happen in Connected Franchise Mode?: Yes, in both user games and in CPU games.
I actually like this glitch. Since the AI QB throws the ball away in the pocket any time I'm close to sacking him and never gets called for intentional grounding, I sometimes use this to kinda level the playing field.
