i have no idea.
i'm sure VIS would help, but my LT is built similarly, with even less VIS and that very rarely happens to him (i can't recall it ever happening). he has less protector too, but he does have about 75 AGI.

even more baffling is that i've never seen a DE with less SPD/AGI than that DE.
maybe that dude's complete lack of quickness threw your guy off.

Yea, that's one of those mystery plays that pop up now and then. I think it's caused by some babe flashing her ** at you to distract you.

DE generally have sick speed and agility. While your OT has good agility and speed, it's probably no where close to what a DE of similar level has. If you let a DE beat you only once or twice a game you probably won that battle.

Maybe he kind of bullrushed me since is str is way higher than mine...

Well I'll watch carefully the next couple of games and see if it happens again.

Maybe, but it's weird, doesn't look like he touched you. I've seen similar where the OT drops way back, and the DE just walked through the hole. Just no explanation.

I disagree with Drawman's assessment. I don't think an OT's going to get beat by the DE a couple times or more every game. Some will, but I don't think it's a rule.

Here's a similar play that happened this morning. Why did the LG move to help the C with the NT, and not see the safety coming in? The LG has 60+ agility & speed, 50+ vision. Just happens sometimes. I don't know that I would call it a bug, but I've seen several that make no sense.

Here's another. http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=374181&pbp_id=3352177

A little less speed than the one above, but otherwise the same.
