3 preseason games in, and my pancake numbers are: 10, 14, 4. This has never happened to me before.

Now, some of it I chalk up to playing RILB, instead of OLB...but do you guys have any other suggestions? [Build is open.]

Speaking of which - should I bring it up with the team to switch me with the current LOLB?

He has more speed [91-84], str [65-50] and tackling [72-62].
I have more agility [74-53], and vision [55-21].

Pump up your LB's strength. No way you can play at OLB with lesser speed than your team's current LOLB.

More vision and agility can help to avoid the block.

Maybe your D Coordinator is lining you up super close to the line alot. Your front line might need more strength or reverse pancake ability to keep opposing lineman off of you

Well, that's settled. 61 vision it is.

61 vision will not fix this... 80 vision won't fix this

there are 2 ways to break blocks, high str or high agi

at your level, you need to pump one of them up to 78 cap

Would the Heavyweight Va make any difference combined with shed blocks?

heavyweight is such a waste if you ask me. read what it says. basically you dont break any extra blocks but when you do youll knock over the other player. totally worthless if you ask me.

Have you tried it? I tried it on a ROLB and loved it.
