It is the only fucking Elusive SA that hasn't been nerfed to shit.

Why don't the Power SAs ever get a "closer look" ?


Bort plays a PB, that's why.

Has Power Through been firing as much as it did last season? Hard to say, but I wasn't seeing it much even with 18.

Maybe not, I really don't have a player with it.

I am only speculating. He has looked at powerback SA's in the past from what I remember when they were bowling over everybody.

Might have been the weight bug, too.

I don't remember him ever nerfing Power SAs, especially not like he's done to Head Fake, Juke and now Spin.

He adjusted Power Backs in other ways, but they're still much more dominant. Elusive Backs are having enough trouble, with FBs not picking up defenders correctly, among other things.

Yet he decides now is an appropriate time to nerf Spin, the only thing that was really working for Combo/Elusive Backs?

What about the thousands of RBs/WRs that were building there players for this very purpose? As a WR, it is really the only way to get consistent YAC.

Spin? Never heard of it. Seriously though... It is obvious from the games I am watching in both the AAA and SLAP regions it is way down over the last week (7 GLB days).

Right around the time where multiple threads popped up about it on the forums.

Not a coincidence.

I agree elusive backs are in trouble since they rely on outside runs and those are the easiest to defend since you only need one guy to interrupt the path of the rusher. I really think they need a boost to fakes behind the line of scrimmage on outside runs.

One example proves nothing, but this was from two days ago: http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=983058&pbp_id=12070072

Honestly, I think all of their SAs needed a little boost, not a nerf.

Bort could also do wonders for Elusive RBs to actually make Super Elusive worthwhile, which he hasn't touched since its implementation.

Yeah, it still activates, but at a much lesser rate than it had been.
