I ran on combo the first 3 games, elusive since. Had a bit more success with elusive. What should I run on and what should I do with training, SP, etc...

regardless of how you run it, a power back is by far the best type of back in the game, so your back is obsolete. I'm not trying to be insulting here, but balance or elusive backs aren't bad, they just don't even come close to what power backs are. I rolled one last season and he is having a career season, seriously an entire career in one season.

Even at higher levels power backs are just better.

I'm not sure if you're trying to say running on power is better, or power backs are better.

Unless both?

Edit:
Either way, you're playing against a lot of lower level teams.

Yes I know my RB is playing against lower level teams. Regardless of this it doesn't mean I don't have access or in talks with high level players which is what I'm basing my info on. Power backs have more success no mater what level than elusive/speed backs. It might change once bort fixes vision on offensive players, but right now power is just better.

edit, your highest level player is 5. How do you know anything on the difference between lower competition and high competition?

Your information is outdated at best. When power backs get to higher levels, their tackle breaking abilities become less viable because multiple players have the speed and block-shedding abilities to come across the field and tackle them. My power back ran for 5.4 ypc, with 98 broken tackles last season. This year, same competition, just higher levels, and I've run for 3.2 ypc with 9 broken tackles (I've spent every available point on strength and tackle-breaking abilities this season).

Not one is better than the other. There are so many factors that come into play its unreal. That's one of the reasons I love football in general. Every play everyone has a job to do and if its done right you should be moving those chains. You just need to make the best dam players you can and go out there and do your job and get some wins.

Stats and everything else in the game gets skewed by low level competition and gutted teams. Only 1 really important stat and that is a big fat W.

Then I don't see things getting better for you. What, you didn't learn after 4.12? I thought it was pretty obvious what was changed, you've got to adapt.

Like Larry said, power backs aren't what they used to be.


Also, I don't know what the level of my players have to do with knowledge.
They cannot learn. They can be deleted. However, humans are different.
