Carrying, you really should have worked on it before speed TBQH, but it's definitely the next on the list at this point.

Considering he fumbled 4 times last season, Carrying is the next step.

I love speed on a FB btw. Yeah, you miss out on minimal natural gains, but you are effective from the start of your career. You don't have to wait until he is level 50+ before being effective. Otherwise the FB is only effective on FB dives... over and over. How boring.

Carrying does more than just add fumble protection, it helps with breaking tackles.

Hardly any slow-built FBs wait til 50+ to add to speed (or to bring it to a decent level)... most work on it 4th or alternate cap it with agility (after strength/blocking/carrying). In most cases, people take it past 70 with EQ by level 45. My level 28 FB has speed currently at 52 with EQ, that's not all that bad for a level 28 player that gets zero ALGs to speed. You can also be quite effective with only ~80 speed.

yeah, we are all aware of what carrying "also does" but he did not say that the guy was not breaking enough tackles, he said that the guy fumbled, and that carrying will help that.

I'm glad you speak for everyone...

Fumbles happen, carrying isn't a sure-fire and/or always the best way to even prevent them. In this particular case, it probably is though, since carrying is so low.

The problem with his statement is that even if the OP didn't fumble a single time, it doesn't change the fact that carrying is the next attribute he should work on. Fumbling really has very little to do with it TBQH.

Ya know "TBQH" implies that sometimes you're not quite honest.

Hopefully you're just trying to troll, otherwise you're yet another example of the failed education system and how intelligence is becoming an endangered species.

gasp owie you not only insulted me but you used big words too! I just see TBQH alot on GLB boards and I think "to be quite honest" is one of the most rediculous things to say. I was kinda trolling too though .

Literally =/= figuratively.

Also, it's ridiculous, not rediculous... the little red underline should've given it away.

I assume this is directed at me...

So you prefer to encourage ignorance and/or fallacy via apathy/indifference, rather than try to correct said person?

Personally, when someone makes a comment that demonstrates a complete failure at a pretty novice concept of reading comprehension, I'm going to point out how stupid they sound... it's a motivational technique. Some motivational techniques do not work on all people, but I'm merely attempting to help make the world a better place. That is because apathy and/or indifference (of teachers and parents) is probably the main reason the latest generation is lacking in intelligence and common sense.

So I'm truly sorry that my display of intelligence and my lack of political correctness offends you, but it sounds like a personal problem to me.
