Letting Pass Plays Develop

I'm wondering this....when doing Play Action and say you are throwing a Streak Route to Devon Hester should you
A. throw it immediately since he is so fast that you don't really give the DB or Safety a chance to react?
B. wait for him to run down field and hope he gets seperation b4 you get sacked?
What about with Post Routes?
Also when doing PA passes should you rocket the pass or just tap the button and lob it...I throw a lot of pics and I'm struggling with PA when it seems so many others are finding good success with it...thanks guys

It all depends on what's there and the route and what you're trying to do...

Situational really...

and unless you are good at user catch throw bullets for short stuff and lobs for long stuff just as a general rule.

playaction to Hester dont work anymore. tall WR's are the new fast WR's

that is a really good point....fast WR are jsut not cutting it anymore....when you have tall recievers you can just precision it up to them and they will out jump the corner usually every time...

If you run a lot then use a PA and throw it long to a fast WR it normally works for me. I run with the Ravens then do a PA to Figurs and it works.

I was just using Hester as an example really....I've noticed a trend to the taller receivers lately...thanks for the help, anyone else got anything that can help me with this...I don't rocket catch and really have no idea how to do it anyway,hahah....I know...I'm lame

I find that using playaction plays and throwing to the TE is always good.

Whenever I run PA I usually wait for the WR to get downfield a little before a throw it deep. For Post Routes I usually throw a precision bullet pass in front of the receiver. Personally I don't really like the deep ball in 09, it's to hard to get any separation. I would just run short PA passes over the middle and to the sidelines.
