Here's our take
When a runner breaks the first level on a run, usually at about 10 yards, the crowd begin to stand and the DBs begin to react. That is the point of "read and react" for us. The defense runs the switch on running plays so its at his discretion after 10 yards where he stops the ball to react.
The reaction is 20 seconds by the defense. Some defenses play cover 2, 2 and regular zone schemes so their players are usually running in a circle at that point. That is where the training of understanding how to turn the dials to the straightest point comes into play. If you would have done this in training camp, discovering the straightest points, you should be okay provided you take the right angle of pursuit.
On passing plays, once the QB stops the board to throw and complete the pass, the defense gets 20 seconds at that point to direct any unengaged player to the ball carrier.
"The Box" simulates penalties, fumbles, and penalties. For the most part, it is right on scale with the NFL when things occur. Because this is just a game, there is not many methods of simulating these bad things that happen in the game. These things are considered "chance" and for us, we want that part of football in the game. People that play with the Box hate the Box and love it but know it makes the game more exciting for what we do.
These are some scenarios.
