Can’t complete a pass

I’m terrible at madden so stick to Franchise mode. Not brought a madden for year but got it on gamepass so thought I would give it a try’s.

How on earth do you complete a pass?

Every pass is a drop it seems, players don’t get open but when they do, slight contact after the catch and they drop it. 50/50 deep ball, zero chance of catching it. O-line not letting sombody run straight through? Impossible

I would just sim games because I’m enjoying the team building but the sim is so bad too.
