I'm a ROLB and only have 9 tackles the LOLB leads the team in that category we have about the same build is the ball just not going my way?

the ball just isnt going your way. Most teams run right at the LOLB..So he's gonna get most of the tackles.

I was LOLB last season and finished with 103 tackles and 5 missed. This season I'm playing on the right and I probably wont even get close to that mark. It's just all in where the ball goes..and The sim likes to run at the LOLB

No offense to the OP but your build is better for a LOLB then ROLB.

The last post is correct though, 75% of all runs I'd say in GLB either go through the RG/RT gap or even further outside of that.

Your problem isnt build, it's opportunity. I'm a ROLB now, same thing. the ROLB can't be a glory hound, especially early on.

I'm going through the same pain you guys are.. I got moved from MLB to ROLB for some reason?.. But my stats are slowlyyyy dwindling down.

I was a LOLB but moved to ROLB because the other LB is faster than mine, and they said the LOLB covers the WR's and TE so we switched.

I was just wondering is there a max amount for tackling? I mean if your tackling is above 30 and your not missing many tackles, is there any reason to keep pumping points into it?

I was LOLB last season and finished with 123 tackles, 7 FF. This season I got moved to ROLB and my stats are down, I've got 42 tackles through the first 6 games. Probably just not getting plays called your way.

probably just to be ahead of the game. but if you need to put points elsewhere then i would stop putting points in tackling until everything else is up!

I say nope, Im a starting ROLB on a good team and am a couple levels below the average level and Ive got less than 25 tackling and havent missed one yet. Im not getting too many oppertunities at ROLB but still.
