Gonna call bullshit on that one.

Look at the top 7 teams in the game.
14 elusive backs
6 scat backs
3 combo backs
1 power back

Think it's a coincidence that the best teams in the game don't use power backs?

And how did that 1 power back do against the other 5 teams?
3 ypc (lolhali), 1.7 ypc, 1.5 ypc, 0.4 ypc, 2.3 ypc.

now i know you'll say that it's because he's in short yardage situations, where that ~2 ypc is acceptable, but that's not even the case. the vast majority of his touches are coming on first and second down. power backs are terrible.


Agreed powerbacks are terrible, I recommend everybody stop building them immediately.

Once good, but driven into the dirt.

Rushing QBs are bad now because they're easy to stop.
Power HBs are bad now because they just aren't very viable with all the nerfs they've received.

1. They slow way down going through the line while defenders navigate through crowds much faster.
2. Breaking tackles greatly destroy their morale/energy.
3. Making tackles are much easier now whereas breaking tackles is harder... oh, and DvG.
4. ect ect ect


I never got why the moral went down after a BT... If anything it should have gone up. Cuz I know damn well I'd feel better if I was breaking tackles alot irl... But hey it's a sim.

Yeah, I feel a lot better after getting smacked in the mouth, even though I didn't go down.
