How about this, last season in 3 games my head faker didn't have any broken tackles, this season against human controlled teams he's had 10 broken tackles in 4 games.


Wrap up nerf in action, imo

You are basing this off of a RB with 20 Agility?

Yeah, that's not going to work.


High headfake with low agility has been working for low level headfake test RBs since last season my friend, so its nothing new.



No, Head Fake does NOT work with 20 Agility, I'm sorry.

I had a D League RB last season, with more than 20 Agility and 7 Head Fake - that would NOT perform head fakes, even on fellow D-League players.

You need more than 20 agility to successfully perform headfake, there is no doubt about it.

Maybe you were watching your guy perform a Quick Cut, it definitely wasn't a headfake - not with 20 agility.

Besides, every RB has more broken tackles this year, when compared to last season. There was a Wrap-Up Tackling NERF - which everyone knows.. Why anyone would assume that it was head fake causing the extra missed tackles is beyond me.

The only thing that changed, in regards to RBs breaking tackles, was the Wrap-Up NERF and maybe a boost to Carrying - nothing else.

Just for the record, here is a play from a recent Cobra Kai game (from this season), where Tea Baggins runs for a 40+ yard TD - while freezing half of the defense.

And no, there were NO broken tackles on the play, but he did freeze the defense. So if that works in the SA Pro - then I'm sure it still works most everywhere else.

Also carrying is supposed to help to break tackles not sure what everyones carrying skill is but I heard that is more the reason

yeah my carrying didn't improve at all, so to go from 0 broken in 3 games against d-leaguers to 10 in 4 games against higher level opponents says the nerf was HUGE.
