35 jumping, 52 tackling, 59 vision.

Looks like the RG is getting involved in a couple of them:

2nd cap tackling? Or should I be looking at something else...

I don't think it is tackling or strength

65 tackling/92 strength/80 speed/35 jumping

Hmm maybe jumping, though when you're already on top of the guy it doesn't seem like extended range would do anything.

Larson - I saw only one really that you should have gotten credit for the tackle, not sack. The other three you are exactly right, the RG did get at least a hand, and a failed attempt at a cut block to try to stop you. That .25 of a second was enough for the handoff or pitch.

Unfortunately, just a hair faster you would be fine. It is rare in the game (from my reviews) to see a DT stop the handoff before it happens. Perhaps it is the programming, or perhaps just a little more speed/agility to get there.

It does not happen too often in real life...


Rage - all of yours were nice hurries, but the QB may be loaded with quick release. Nothing to do with that but hurry the hell out of him to get him to make bad throws. Nice pressure in those 4 plays...
Both of you are getting great jumps off the ball. Good things happening...

Yeah but you can make a tackle when blocked, if I'm not mistaken. Though there is a check to see if you can even attempt the tackle. I believe that check is based on tackling. So maybe it's a tackling issue even if range isn't an factor... Vision could be involved.

The 3rd I listed is the one that screams WTF. The RG clearly got there late, but replays aren't exact so...
