As far as I know, most of the sacks being gotten the first way is with DTs who have 9 or 10 FS and 85+ speed.
The second I'm not sure about.

I've gotten pretty much all (maybe all actually) of my sacks using both of those two blitzing methods. I just know that Bort said that DTs weren't getting sacks because no one was blitzing so we tried out some blitzes until we found what works for our defense. My DT only has 82 speed though.

DTs don't have First Step. Are you saying we should get 2 FS AEQ? I'm confused....

Well he's saying that #1 works for DTs who have 2 FS AEqs, he's not saying you need to get any.

Yes, he's saying two AEQs.

so basically you need 9/10 FS AND 85+ speed. Awesome.

Well, looks like it's time to start rolling for AEQ and if FS comes up, I'll just snatch it up everytime (for different eq spots of course)

Bort needs to change something about DT pass rushing. You pretty much can't get sacks without using blitzes that make the OL act stupidly.

yep

Let 'em have it Rage

100/100 DT will 'work' btw, they're just never going to be elite at one thng. Anyone who says otherwise is a........

2. Some build variation


It would be interesting to see how much confidence the successful ones have compared to the DTs who are not performing as well.

Next season I'll be trying something like:

95/84/123/62/50/50 str/spd/agi/vis/conf/stam with 12 shed block and +38% break block. We'll see if it does anything at the Pro level...I'm not going to bother trying at the World level....I'm sure it won't work there.

You can't say that you can't get any sacks as a DT. Mine has at least 2 against good competition this season, without using DT friendly tactics.

All 6 sacks (for my guy) came in 200+ point blowouts...All of your DT's regular season (didn't check other games) sacks came in 100+ point blowouts.

What about 95 strength, 100 agility, 115 speed with 10 FS, 11 SB, and break block AEQ?

pancake city.

I wouldn't have a DT with less than 110+ str at higher levels anymore. It's suicide.

My DT got pancaked like 10 times all season with 100 str in SEAPL last season.
