Air Yards

Is there anyway Air Yards in the passing game can be increased so that we can see the QBs throw further than 15 yards down the field, or is this not something that is capable with the Game Engine? This would improve the visual element of playing/watching games immensely, and possibly bring in Hail Mary's which are an essential part of football obvs.

We'll look at it in a future version. Increasing air yards is pretty easy... we just make the QB wait longer or scramble while the players get downfield. It requires a fair amount of tuning though to keep sacks in line with completion pct, etc.

Please - there are two many 3 yard passes where the QB gets rid of the ball in the first second, or throws the ball short of the sticks on crucial downs. I'll try to throw long by calling say "WR Streak" and get 6 yards on the play. This leads to very low yards/att for QB's, much lower than the NFL average.

Would changing the "Passing Yards Modifier" in Advanced Settings possibly serve as a temporary solution?
