Ty I will say while you have 70 numbers in pass blocking, these DL have more than that. Thus, they win the roll more than they lose. But like Cyber said PA on a 3rd and long just dont make any sense. In real football, would a real football coach every call PA on 3rd and long, NEVER! That is because the defense isnt going to fall for the fake. In fact, I called the defense for this game, we tagged you 100% pass tag for the entire game. So my DL players are going to always react to the pass better than the run in this game. That leads to PA being less effective and leads to them being able to get past you faster. During a PA play, the OL has to use run blocking skills first before he starts using Pass blocking skills. This puts your OT at a severe disadvantage at the very start of the play due to the play calling.
If it is 3rd and long go for an outside run or even a little hb screen. Those will reduce your sacks given up. You also don't run the ball very much, for a PA play to be effective you have to be running the ball enough for the defense to want to bit on it. That was put into the changelog seasons back. from watching the game your OT do a decent job most of the game except in those bad 3rd and long situations.70s just the example I used for minimums - if I said exactly how much I’ve invested so far in pass blocking you’d all be devastated

BUT
Ty is also being a bit stubborn and sticking to what he wants to run versus listening to and trying some of the stuff that other players are suggesting.
Ty, I think you should continue pushing for blockers' rights. I also think that in the meantime, while you are waiting, you should try some of the suggestions that other players are giving you.
Hang in there man!There was a few seasons a little while back where I stayed quiet as hell and to won a championship early in our run. That run was a community build run. I missed the stress and frustration to be honest with you. Took some time off to work through my shame, and came back even more hell bent on doing things I know damn well the game can’t support yet.
I just like pushing my own creativity and want GLB2 to support us being as creative as possible with our offenses. Defensively we got there. We could still use some extra packages, but the growth is there.
Offensively… eh.
