Rule OR Override Breaks on this Play

There is something seriously broken with this play: https://agent86.myfootballnow.com/watch/1421#256438

It's 3-19, which means my 3-Long personnel rotates in for Zone coverage, but then my team calls a play that is reserved for 3-Short.

So here's some things that may have happened:

1) My opponent was churning yards that allowed the GP Adjustment to move the play to 3-Short, BUT in that case, my personnel shouldn't have rotated in.

2) The game just randomly called the play.

3) Rules are terribly broken so that they override all distances.

What is your GP set too?

I'm on defense so it wouldn't be my GP. It would be my opponents GP Adjustment that determines the distance of the play.

Your opponents GP should affect your team? I don't think so anyway

Yes, the offense determines what Short-Medium-Long is based on the GP Adjustment.

The defensive side of the ball reacts to the offense's decision for distance. So when your opponent calls a "short" distance play, your defense will also call a "short" distance play. So your defense technically is using your opponent's GP Distance Adjustment Speed, only because that is necessary to keep the tables even between the teams.
