Obviously, this is mostly due to the change to pass rush pathing, but what can I do (if anything) to stop this?

Our ROTs have gone from being our best o-lineman to serious liabilities.

The key attributes are:
Strength: 64.2
Blocking: 57.2
Speed: 38.15
Agility: 49.2
Vision: 41.12

The DEs do outlevel the OT, but not enough for this to happen several times in every game, against a variety of opponents.

Thoughts/suggestions?

SA's are important too.

Are those strength / blocking before or after equip? If they are before equip, your stats are fine and go look at SA's. If they are after equip, then get both to 60 base ASAP.

Just a thought...Could it be that the OT's tactic setting is focused on run, while the higher level DE is focused on the pass?

good point. My ROT gave up these sacks a ton on +run block. I recommend +pass block in the LOT position and no change in the ROT position.

high lvl rot should play on balanced unless they have gr8 agility and vision

My opinion is they over nerfed the pass rush and gave too much advantage to the DE's. I have some pretty damn good OT's and I'm getting the same retarded results. It's not realistic that you would need more points on Speed, Agility, and Vision than you have on Strength and Block.

Think again...

Tackles usually have to be very agile to block quick DE's, and since the stand cookie cutter DE is currently whoring speed, tackles will need more agility than they will strength, to pass block anyway.

For run blocking, strength is still more important.
