Default Dilemma

I've vented some pet peeves here before and I definitely see inconsistency in the way guys pivot in the hobby (I believe it should always be done with back of base and using a marker if crucial).

One pet peeve showed itself again at this year's Buzzfest. A rusher gets right into the face of the QB. The coach makes a good stop of the switch and barely stops it before the guy tackles him. The coach then marks where the QB's base is and sets his TTQB to be touching the very edge of one corner of that space. In essence he nullifies the pressure that your guy put on and the ability of that defensive rusher to affect the throw by forcing you to lean your QB to the side, etc.

The coach was doing nothing wrong or illegal, but I found it more fun when I was able to watch guys like Klingbeil do a sideways pass by tilting his TTQB sideways and then having to account for the angle, etc.
