People keep talking about how you can never have enough strength to consistently get past o-linemen. What if someone just put SP into strength and speed, and some points into Shed Block and Tunnel Vision? Anyone tried this and gotten to the QB consistently?

without agility, you would never get the chance to use that speed since you would be blocked forever.

I'm saying in the event that you build a guy that has more strength than the guy blocking you, can it be successful to power rush.

don't think so. OT just have to train block and strenght major. So they'll always have more strenght than a DE wich have to train more attributes... Don't think that a strenght DE is efficient =)

A DLineman can be 20 points stronger than the offensive lineman and still get dominated.

Exactly. Thats why I switched my build from a strength to an agility build

Strength DEs are still not effective. Not sure if they will ever be.
