Why Can’t I make my RB pass block?

2 years running... Is this intentional or incompetent coding?

I know you can block all and then redo the other routes, but this method takes away any route not in the audible menu. Not to mention, it doesn’t work to cancel play action. 

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks guys.

I swapped mine out and it’s working perfectly and also I feel like I am better at running now with sprint, not sure if that’s just in my head. I know I am much better at returning picks as I am not being caught by o lineman 

 Wow - thank you for the heads up. Fixing asap haha

Quote from Dolphin21 >> To make a RB pass block, all you need to do is hit Y or Triangle, then hot route the RB, then hold R2 or RT until it shows the running back is now blocking. Hope this answers your question

 This has just taken my game to a whole new level. Thank you sir!

 I’m with you man. The most annoying part is randomly out of the blue, it WILL work, so I know the players are capable of doing it within the code 

 What does your RB do?

 Lol we know this man.... our right triggers dont register when trying to do it. Dating back to last year

Super helpful responses, thanks guys. So weird. Seems like the issue impacts about half of us for whatever reason and works fine for the other half.

 Maybe, but it works just fine for call of duty. Never had an issue firing a weapon. So idk, its really weird

It works periodically for me, but not the majority of the time. I agree it is very frustrating

That's weird I have no problem blocking my th i just do it by pressing Y selecting the runningbacks button and pressing RT

 I see what you’re saying strategy-wise and agree. Im saying the R2 function literally does not work for me, no matter how many times I press it.

I’m also referring to basic non-PA passing situations. I can’t audible a basic wheel or swing route into a pass blocker.

 I know this, but the button literally does not register. It doesnt matter what play, playaction or not, i cant block my rb. And i know my r2 is not broke, it works find on COD
