Blitzing from the offense left side became popular for many team playing 3-4, since the LG doubles the NT automatically forcing the RG to stop the blitz

My guy (the poor RG in the reply) is not doing well enough getting to these blitzes. What is the key attributes in this play:
Vision, Agility, Speed or Blocking ?

my impression has been they are all important but that for the purposes of picking up that blitz, Vision > Agility >> Speed.

The most important thing is coding. Bort needs to fix it.

Also, scouting...if you see a team sending this blitz a lot, your OC needs to make it a run-heavy game plan(since it comes from the left and most runs are to the right, a decent RB will effectively kill this blitz).

In looking at a couple other plays of your player I'd say that your Guard is getting there, just not fast enough. Meaning I believe you have good vision. Also it's a team game so sometimes the actions of other linemen will dictate what you do.

For example in these plays your RG does get over to pick up the blitz.

I think on the play in question the LT let's the RE come inside thus making you pick him up first instead of the LB.

I think you need some more speed and possibly blocking wouldn't hurt.

Kinda hard to help if you don't even have your build open.
