CPU Games — No Manipulation
The CPU reads the defensive look it sees. If an extra defender comes into the box, it can check toward the pass.
- Don't walk your nickel/slot toward the box to flip the CPU's run/pass read, then bail him into a passing lane at the snap.
- Fine: bring him into the box and play the box. Disguising coverage and bringing real pressure are fine.
- Intent is judged on film. Nobody argues 2 yards vs 3 yards.
- Keep doing it and nickel/slot defenders stop being user-eligible against the CPU.
