Moderation, can we get this sorry excuse for an agent out of this thread?

Constructively and communally discuss the problem, don't attack the person. Warning.

bump for 100% bug

Broken blocking plays:

In this play it looks like the C, G, and OT all pull… Super.. Problem is no one blocks the DT/DE (assuming 4DL) that can come flying in.

They look terrible. Not sure if run block awareness could fix the fact that all 3 pulling fellas take no notice of the defence.

looks like those lineman need more quickness/footwork/block aware/sprint

Your lineman would be a good testing ground, as they are quality in the running game.

They havea pretty decent amount... iirc they all have ~25ish in the physical and 35+ blocking aware.

its not a build issue DD

decent but not unfailable, could be that play needs more then that, i would say with those stats it could be a build issue

Are you blind? Do you not think?

Run block awareness under 50 for a run blocking lineman is laughable to me at this point in soph honestly. Vice versa for pass blocking lineman.

The problem with pulling plays is the pulling blockers don't block while they are pulling if needed. Not realistic. They'd rather finish their pull route, then turn around run to block someone already out of the play.

Should be an easy and quick fix though.

decent opinion, but I disagree, only place where I see a real lack of awareness is on my OTs which I converted to pass blockers and are chillin at mid 20s..

Corndog's already looking into blocking routes:

I can look at it once I get some time this week. Ive done a bit of playing around with block routes.

That's about the FB in a play, but same issue - not seeing a threat until after the handoff, so is in the "on rails" part of the play and isn't trying to block yet. I think the pulling linemen are in the same situation - just running to a point first, not trying to block yet.

It's also possible that switching from "run to your initial block point" to "holy crap block this guy instead of hoping your ball carrier is faster than he is" requires a proper awareness check - coach said run over there and block, but you figure out you gotta block NOW or the play is toast.
