And this is how I've done this season:

http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=768289

1 sack.....

I was told everything in Agility and Speed. I always have great matchups every week against the LOT and the 1 sack I've gotten was a fluke.

I was told vision is not important for a RE. Is it?

What do I have to do? I barely get pressure on the QB! Maybe 1 hurry every game....

Now, here is another player in our league. About the same lvl, but look at his sack production...

Help me? What is going wrong?

I like the fact that you took advice here, have had no success, yet are returning for more advice.

Frankly though, I am a little surprised that you have had so little success...I assume you are playing in a level-capped league against similar level competition?

I would read through the Julius Dee thread, it looks like you would benefit from looking at his advice more closely.

This is a good point...


You've invested 26 points into SA's by level 20. I'd start your search for having no success there.

Confidence and vision need increased but only to about25 or 30. Lay off the Specials.

6 I had to because of the +1 Pass rushing tree in Custom EQ and adv. EQ.

Shull, Im asking for advice, not pointing out what you think I did wrong

Sounds fair. What is your speed/agility without equipment? I think it's generally recommended to have a natural 60+ in both categories if you're going for a speed DE. I'd get those to 60+ as soon as possible.

62 agi 56 speed.

Does vision help on pass rushing the QB?

Mr. Antininja was pretty adamant that it doesn't do crap. I'm starting to hear different, just seeing what your advice is on that.

I've been reading through the O-Line Club threads. They have taken it upon themselves to test out Shock Block [their SA]. With such a low STRENGTH, it may not take much to knock you off your path to the QB.

18 vision and 8 tunnel vision I'd start there.

You're not fast enough. This is largely because you spent on SAs too early. All is not lost because those SAs are where you want to be a season from now. Some strength could be useful, too.

You definitly need to increase your vision. Now, there's a debate as to how high vision needs to be - some say 30, others say soft-cap. I personally believe it's best to soft cap it but nontheless you need to at least get it to 30.

from what ive seen
these are great combos
shed block + agi
or
TV + spd

you got tv + agi so maybe thats the reason

So I should at least get speed up to 70 and try to get at least close to soft capping vision?

Sounds like a plan....might take a while though with this new training that had been put in place. I'll report back to this forum to let you know how everything pans out sometime next season.

I didn't say it does crap. I said you can be successful without it.

At level 20, you should have both agility and speed to the 60 cap, and all equipment into one of the two stats, not split. Vision is optional here, do you really want it?

This is where I would start working on my SAs. TV and shed block are your two most important SAs.
