Intentional grounding never being called

NFL Rules definition of Intentional grounding....

RULE SUMMARY VIEW OFFICIAL RULE

INTENTIONAL GROUNDING

It is a foul for intentional grounding if a passer, facing an imminent loss of yardage because of pressure from the defense, throws a forward pass without a realistic chance of completion. A realistic chance of completion is defined as a pass that is thrown in the direction of and lands in the vicinity of an originally eligible receiver.

Yet how come when my opponents scramble around the pocket, then throw it away when theyre about the be sacked and the pass doesnt evne reach the line of scrimmage...

No intentional grounding is called.   These clowns can simply run around with their QB, then throw the ball away with no penalties???

CMON EA...fix this stuff

Ya, this is a serious problem, IMO.  I whole-heartedly support your efforts and ideas here.  There should be some type of penalty (potential increase chance to fumble?) for wildly trying to throw the ball away.  It's ridiculous trying to chase down QB Perry or Vick or whatever, only to have them dodge, evade, before ultimately heaving the ball twenty yards out of bounds, from 25 yards deep in the pocket.

Simulation fatball, my left butt cheek.

Most of the time when the ball doesn't make it past the LOS in MUT it's because the qb is hit while throwing. Item 2. Physical Contact. Intentional grounding should not be called if:

1. the passer initiates his passing motion toward an eligible receiver and then is significantly affected by physical contact from a defensive player that causes the pass to land in an area that is not in the direction and vicinity of an eligible receiver; or
2. the passer is out of the pocket, and his passing motion is significantly affected by physical contact from a defensive player that causes the ball to land short of the line of scrimmage.

With all of the pass interference going on, you worry about intentional grounding?  Fix def pass interference FIRST

Thanks for clarifying, yet in real life refs miss it too lol

My friends will barely tap a guy and get called for it.

Some of the passes that are thrown aren’t called it but are incomplete and should be a fumble at times. I hate it the most is when a ai qb is under pressure and throws a oss perfectly away, like wtf!

The worst for me is usually late in games say in a solo battle the cpu qb will throw the ball from the pocket 35 yards downfield outta bounds with no one around and it still never gets called. Definitely under pressure but never touched

I only see it occasionally when people in front of my WR clearly backs off the thumb stick to impead the route.  Nothing slight about it, it’s very intentional but rarely gets called. No consistency.
