I recently purchased a piece of "Closing Speed" AEQ for my ILB.

Description as follows:

"Closing Speed gives this player an adhrenaline boost when he needs it most - to catch the ball carrier.The CB will gain a speed and acceleration boost when the ball carrier is far away and he needs to close the gap quickly.

This skill is important for players who will be playing a lot of zone coverage and for the last man on defense.

Additional levels: Increase speed and acceleration boost received."

So, the question is, would this SA trigger for a linebacker, and not just in coverage, but at any time on the field? The description does not say it is a "ball in the air" type of trigger, but simply when the ball carrier is far away. It does mention CB, but perhaps only because it is a CB SA . . . not because you need to be a CB for it to trigger.

Any thoughts or experience?

I use it. I had 7 in it at one point but didn't really notice a great difference from 4 to 7 so I sold back that piece for a +3 Break Block +5 Make Tackle piece.

You didn't notice a great difference from 4 to 7. But what about from 0 to 4?
