I know it's always referred to as "super LBs," but that entire problem stems from the fact that as soon as you press the button to throw a receiver, the entire defense reacts instantly. It's the reason there are so many tipped balls thrown over the middle, why there's so many "warping" interceptions, etc...

I really have no idea how they would fix that other than dumbing down the AI or implementing some kind of reaction based rating system.
