Weirdwolf,
I like the NHFL version of passing as well. I remember when we were discussing it, we had some really good EF minds online and no one liked any of the options we could think of. Then, some newbie asked either Pratt or Rich why we just didn't do it this way, and we were shocked!!! I guess a new perspective was what was needed, we could not escape from our preconceptions.
As to this post, our completions have gone way down and interceptions way up since moving from TTQB passing to the sticks. It is hard because our defenders are more often on the figure with the arms out, which is better balanced for ITZ dials, and our WR figures are on the Miggle RB figures. But, we do enjoy the challenge, and it forces us to run passing patterns instead of everyone go out (or everyone get held in my case).
My guess is if people's completions are higher after moving to the sticks, it is as Anthony suggested, they are not playing their safeties back.
