How much strength and tackling do you think is good to tackle the good powerbacks? Also, I think confidence/jumping/vision plays an important role in tackling, but I might be wrong.

Do you think that 55 strength and 55 tackling? My guy plays ROLB and he only have 51 strength and 51 tackling.

My 49 MLB has around 58 strength 60 tackling

VAs- Sure Tackling, and Base Tackling bonus

I play on hard hitter and havent missed a tackle yet

What do you mean by yet? Do you mean so far this preseason ?
Season 7 you had 23 MsTks.

I think 55 str, 60 tkl would be solid.

I have 53 strength and 50 tackling and play on Wrap-Up. Last season I had 59 tackles and 3 miss tackles. I may end up bumping up my strength and tackling to play on balanced, or see how others do with their VA's and go with Sure Tackle and Hard Hitter at some point.

My LB has 57 STR 63 tkl, plays on wrap up and has missed 5 of 17 attempts on powerbacks so far on the year.

How are you guys seeing the 'Fall Forward' stuff when you tackle? I've been seeing the running back get between 1-4 extra yards after being tackled as a little 'jump' forward. Probably going to bump strength and tackling up to natural 61

To add to this, missed another 3 of 13 attempts today.

so the lesson is: don't bother raising tackling over 49?

My LB has it at 42 and he hasn't missed a tackle yet. Course we haven't faced a good power HB yet, but he's still never had more tackling problems than teammates who have 60 tackling, and it all makes me think tackling just isn't worth it compared to other stats, including strength (to avoid pancakes/break blocks/stop dives for yards)

If up leave tackling in the low 40's and have low confidence, wait until you see that good power back
