will the aggression slider affect the qb bootleg?

doesn't say anything to that effect in the FAQ on it.

It supposedly is only activated when the OT doesn't engage the DE, like on the pulling action for the screen plays. If the OT engages the DE normally (like for QB rollouts), then it doesn't come into play.

That's how I read it.

Yeah, but it's available for all defensive players....i just thought that to be curious.

From what it sounds like as an example. If you're blitzing a CB and have it set to 100%, if its a screen he'll basically ignore it or not recognize it and keep going for QB most likely. If you have the slider further back he has a better chance of recognizing its a screen and making a move on that to make the play. Just what I get from reading it, I could be completely wrong.

I wonder if the slider will overwrite a blitz call in the AI though. It's one thing to overwrite a D-linemen basic pass rush orders, but a blitz is a specific call.

Yeah, that's kind of what I've been seeing.......if your olb has a high aggression level he'll go all out at the qb on a blitz.....if it's low, he'll go to the qb slower and be able to pick up on outside runs/qb bootlegs, etc. I know a lot of the time last year cbs/olbs overan the play......that may be different this year if the blitzer lowers their aggression level, but could reduce their sack total.

Last year I built 3 Strength, one Speed/Agility. I got a ton of sacks from the Speed Agility guy by the end of the season because 9/10 OTs were built for strength.

This. Same applied with my linebackers. My MLB (strength) had 40 tackles and 0 Sacks/INT/FF/FR; my 2 speed OLB had a combined 5 sacks, 3 interceptions, and I dunno bout' fumbles but speed/agility is so much more effective.
