I would like the defense be able to disguise the coverage. i.e. give the look of a zone defense but run man 2 man (or the other way around.) This will make it more difficult to choose the correct audible for human coaches.

Keith, I could envision something like "Line Up on Man" in Pre-Snap, making it look like M2M, then falling back into Zone coverage with the snap, but I am not sure how you would do the reverse!  Zone defense becomes M2M when the Receiver gets into the Zone anyway.  I have yet to get that deep into the game, but I am hoping that there are at least two kinds of Zone Defenses; first, where the defender is covering a specified area and pursues the Receiver when he enters that Zone; second, where the defender remains stationary {stays at home} until the ball is thrown or the QB hands off, then reacts.  Third, and probably best, would be a stationary Zone for some number of seconds where the defender would respond if the ball is thrown, or the QB hands off, then "read" what is going on and reacts. [;)]

Use "Key on" to cover M2M without moving over the player they are covering.

I have asked for the ability to have defensive "motion" to disguise blitzes and coverage.
 
I'm not really sure what it would take to add that, and I am not sure if it is on the "to-do" list.
