    This is from the latest update you referenced. Are you all still seeing too many dropped passes?

    Addressed an issue with receivers dropping the ball from late collisions by defenders. 

    • DEV NOTE: In these situations, the receiver would seem to have brought the ball in and secured it but the late collision from a defender would have the ball awkwardly dribble out of the receiver’s hand(s). We have now made the window for knocking the ball out from a normal collision smaller so defenders will no longer be able to knock the ball out so late.

    I finally broke down and got 21, only to find great disappointment in the amount of bugs and glitches that is still in the title. I have mostly played FOTF but the same issues are within that mode. Wide open drops, animated drops, animations that look like catches that register as drops (even in looking at replay). Don't get me started about play reviews. Even simple glitches like when they are doing the player comparisons at the beginning of the match, the image doesn't match the player until just after switching; then the previous one shows first. To answer your question....Yes. Yes we still see the excessive open dropped passes.
