I'm maxing out Pass Blocking and Showboat Blocker... After that I am considering Red Zone Freak. Thoughts?

I maxed out RZF and unless I'm goin nuts, I think I actually saw an improvement in pancakes when in the red zone my last couple scrims.

Maybe pancakes were up because OL were getting a massive lift from Workout Warrior attribute bonus and they were lined up against weak DE's.

+0.5% to blocking is still significant if you built your player well - should be getting you +5-6.

Pass Blocker gets +2% to 2 stats, to "8 times the bonus" as +0.5% to blocking straight up.

But 2nd and 10, 3rd and 4th down passing? Go look at your play by play. Unless your team passes a lot, I highly doubt that these situations constitute 1/8th of your offensive plays.

Sure, the value of 3rd/4th/2nd and 10 may be more than 2nd and short or 1st down, which skews things a bit, but still, I stand by that +0.5% blocking > pass blocker for anybody except LOT and possible LG if you're in a tough league with good DTs.

Well my guy plays on a passing team, so I may be a bit biased, BUT:

You have to consider what DEs are going to do with their VP. There aren't many good ones for DEs, so I'm betting most are going to put their points into Pass Rusher. So if you want to keep up with these guys, having 15 in Great Blocker as opposed to Pass Blocker just isn't enough.

Definitely a good argument in favor of it.
