How am I doing, and the rolb is the one that stays in on nickel posessions correct.

Strength: 50.48 Blocking: 17.13
Speed: 72.29 Tackling: 52.74
Agility: 62.57 Throwing: 9
Jumping: 18.13 Catching: 17.13
Stamina: 45.61 Carrying: 7
Vision: 51.46 Kicking: 7
Confidence: 29.46 Punting: 8

Hard Hitter Abilities
2-2-2-4-1
Pass Rusher Abilities
3-3-4-1-1

solid so far but keep training jmp/cth, need to get jumping up to 30 or so. i think different position stay in for nickel depending on certain things, at least it seems that way on my team...it's always somebody different!

i think one of the guide's even says that it's the ROLB that stays in in nickel, but i'm almost positive it's the LOLB.

STR and tackling too high. You could have used that elsewhere, like speed/agility.

that's not really the case any more...it's now necessary to have at least adequate strength and tackling, once spd/agi are to the 3:1 cap

exactly, so he should've probably gotten those up first...

you need strength and tackling unless you wanna get bull rushed by a big RB or FB

Or, if you're on a team where you have 3 or 4 really fast LBs and a fast SS, it won't matter because whenever someone misses the tackle, you'll have several other people who can make the tackle.

that's great if you can count on that, but the vast majority of players can't unless they intentionally seek out strong teams in weak low level conferences.

50/50 is still too high. At least from my experience in a Pro League. To each his own though.

it is not high enough this season, based on what I'm seeing. Although to some degree I think there are certain plays where strength doesn't even really matter.

Your linebackers tackle/missed ratio is .14. Mine is .07. Obviously that's based on a finite amount of games, but I can't see the need to spend a significant amount of SPs on STR/Tackling at this point given those numbers. That's also assuming all other things equal, which they're not, but you gotta go by something.

My ROLB has 51/38 STR/TKL and has only missed one tackle. There's no reason to have that much in tackling. Obviously not much you can do about that now, though. Other than that, I like the build. Train jumping for awhile and keep putting skill points toward speed and agility.

what about rushing the qb? Do you expect to use agility every time coming around their left tackle who is most likely very agile himself?

Simply? Yes. You'll never outstrength a STR OT, and never out agile an agility OT. OTs are much more one dimensional than LBs.
