Anybody put a piece of First Step (despite the penalty) to help him get moving before Surge kicks in?

Dive for Yards? if your goal is to be used mostly in short yardage for 1st downs or inside the 5?

First step does not work before the handoff. It also doesn't work once a player is moving faster than a snail. You could argue that when he gets hit and stopped FS kicks in, but afaik that is still speculation. (DISCLAIMER I have not build nor followed PBs for around 10 seasons)

No advice on this one, but I remember when people thought this was Dive Four Yards. XD

The big bonus from first step for a true power back would probably be picking up speed again after you break tackles. Don't think it'll help much in the backfield.

Dive for yards is good for them though. When your job is to pick up 2 yards, getting any extra bit of yardage is a huge % bonus.
