Bingo. If you have a successful pass rusher, teams will try to double you up with an extra blocker (or two linemen if you are in a 3 man front). I won't have much to spend on it since I can only get SP through bonus token trade-ins, but it beats the rest of the underwhelming choices.

Remember that break through only works versus the RUN, not pass. Bort has confirmed it twice already.

Wish I would have known that sooner... although on pass rush, my DE doesn't usually get double teamed since there is usually a LB coming on one side or the other.

But I haven't heard this one mentioned... I got Gang Tackle for my LDE... he's in a 3-4 defense and there are always linebackers crawling up his ass... so there's always a tackler or 2 within 2 yards of him... I guess I'll see if it helps anything.

2 yards is real close. Smaller than the size of your dot. And gang tackle doesn't improve your tackle quality.

If you are going for that: wrap-up tackle is a better choice for a SA.

Super Vision anyone?

Yes, and I feel that it's a safe bet.

what about closing speed? it's supposed to be for CBs but it's to get to whoever has the ball and provides a speed/acceleration boost. i took a chance on that one.

I went with Relentless Pursuit because even if it isn't good now, it will probably be worth it in the future. I'm betting that if it's taking too long and RP is never firing, Bort will give it a buff.

Just my .02

It only works when QB dumps the ball away as Bort has said QB doesn't count as ball-carrier. The situations that Closing Speed activates are:

1) QB hands off to RB and you've going after the RB

2) Dump off to WR and you are chasing the WR

3) QB starts scrambling for yards (only this scenario will Closing Speed activate against the QB)

So it doesn't help you as the passrusher that wants to sack the passing QB
