Warrior General Games

I'm a little disappointed in the stats my NT has been putting up. I am getting a ton of REVPNK's but not many hurries or sacks. Any advice on what to do to get more pressure?

I'd imagine pocket crusher will help net more hurries as you get it up higher.

that could help, and also depending on his settings bigben

DT/NT sacks at upper levels are pretty much RNG or due to how the DC sets up the defense.

well i'm working on getting pocket crusher up now, any other VA's to consider? Also as far as tactics go i'm on balanced focus, with power rushing style 100% aggressive. Would changing the focus to passing help much?

Answers by example tbh...

Sacks are hard to come by for this position the way the game plays...

Well i am really more concerned that my hurries number is so low. I mean is 20-30 hurries really average for a NT for a season? I mean with all the rev pnk i'm getting i feel like i should be getting a 3-4 a game at least. I know i'm not going to be getting anywhere close to double digit sacks though at my position.

Jumping to 25 minimum needed soon, this can help turn a hurry into a sack with good roll, also drastically increases tackle attemps at the line.

Confidence helps break block roll, and could have a minor impact as well, shoot for 40-48 at least.

I would be more concerned on making tackles with a NT

just be happy with your reverse pancake numbers. That is about the only stat you can rely on.

http://goallineblitz.com/game/full_player_stats.pl?player_id=1901751&playoffs=0 - in first 2 games. 41 reverse pancakes. 2 hurries.

http://goallineblitz.com/game/full_player_stats.pl?player_id=1604560&playoffs=0 - 43 reverse pancakes, 1 hurry

Rage, I notice on your guys that confidence is usually around 50. Perhaps more confidence would help?
