GAME BREAKING Run/Pass Glitch in Madden 17

[VikkiVik]

Product: Madden 17
Platform:Microsoft XBOX One
Summarize your bug: While playing an opponent online I can tell when he picked a running play and when he picked a passing play. I can tell by simly holding down RT (Coach Cam) on defense: If my opponet's receiver's names show up under them, it's a pass play; if the receiver's names don't show up under them, it's a run play. Also when I'm on offense they can tell whether I'm running or passing the ball the same way I exlained.
How often does the bug occur?: Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves?: Play a game online, hold RT while on defense, let the opponent hike the ball and see for yourselves.
What happens when the bug occurs?: Football is supposed to be a game of chess, not checkers. So knowing what your opponent is doing and your opponent knowing what you're doing is game breaking to say the least.
What do you expect to see?: I expect the opponent's receiver's names to show under them while holding RT EVERY PLAY whether it's a run or a pass.
If your game crashed, about how many minutes were you playing before it crashed?: Didn't crash.
What is your gamertag/PSN ID?: Vikki Vik 11

Did this issue happen in Connected Franchise Mode?: Unknown

Does anyone know when they might fix this run/pass glitch? It's sad they're more worried about updating the conmentation to talk about Kap but won't hurry up and fix this glitch. This is the biggest disappointment of madden

I actually like this glitch.  Since the AI QB throws the ball away in the pocket any time I'm close to sacking him and never gets called for intentional grounding, I sometimes use this to kinda level the playing field.

I'd like the glitch too, if the popup "Connection to peer has been lost", wouldn't appear i'd kick but online... lol
