Then there is the blitzing, high speed and agility will get you more sacks then high strength. If you are strong enough to power through an o-lineman right now, then I guarantee you are too slow to get to the QB anyway.


The shortest distance between point A and point B is a straight line. Playing MLB, a straight line takes you straight through the O-Line. If you don't have the strength to fight off blocks, you're screwed. It's not like an OLB coming off the outside, having to beat his man and curl back around. If you bust through that line, you're right in the QBs grill. Speed isn't a HUGE priority for MLBs, but it is necessary, I'll admit that. However, I feel strength is the primary stat here.

You're fighting off Cs and Gs and FBs during run plays, and taking on Cs and Gs during blitzing pass plays. You're going against high strength players that will pancake your ass...

Just thought I would jot some things down about a current experiment I'm running.

Right now I'm trying a SA heavy LB, hopefully desitned to play MLB. I have put all of my points into SAs right now, and my current tree line(lvl3) is:
3 5 2 2 2
2 2 0 0 0

By utilizing a combination of Snarl, Aura of Intimidation, and Monster Hit, I want to make this LB a Forced Fumble Machine. The attributes I will be focusing my points in when I start putting them in are strength, tackling, vision, and confidence. I will of course not neglect speed and agility, but they aren't my concentrated traits.

Starting roll was(if I remember right)somewhere around this:
Strength: 14 Blocking: 10
Speed: 10 Tackling: 10
Agility: 14 Throwing: 8
Jumping: 10 Catching: 10
Stamina: 10 Carrying: 9
Vision: 14 Kicking: 8
Confidence: 12 Punting: 9

I haven't really focused my training yet. Been kind of rounding everything out. I put my equipment into vision in hopes that being quicker to notice the play can help counteract being a little slow in getting to it. Any tips on a great place to begin a focus for training on would be welcome.

This build should also hopefully help the players around me get some more forced fumbles with Snarl, D-General, and Aura in effect. And also a boost for pass rushers from Glare and Trash Talk. I haven't boosted this player yet, but plan to at the end of the season. If anybody sees a mistake I have made already, please tell me as I want to make this experiment as perfect as possible. Any suggestions? Thanks guys.
