I forgot about the weight thing.


I know you read my posts. How could you forget about that? What I haven't slammed it enough?

Speed backs are more threatening than power backs especially when you have low diving. They simply outrun the diving tackle attempt. I learned that the hard way watching my LB miss 5 tackles against a speed back who simply outran him.

The current problem is that "Weight" hurts Power Backs more with up the middle runs rather than their deadly Outside/Blow up the CB runs.

Weight is a decent idea but it nerfs inside running which wasn't strong to begin with and didn't do enough to stop Power HBs from destroying CBs.

What's needed is to nerf Outside Rushing - maybe giving CBs a greater tackle radius and a slight boost to inside running.



this is exactly correct

ive said it since about season 5, inside rushing is awful so every defense completely neglects even attempting to gameplan vs the inside run and it makes it far too easy to just focus on either pass or outside run, it needs to be rock paper scissors but since the games inception we just have paper and scissors lol.

The issue has increased significantly, especially at lower tiers, since the new change to "weight" affecting tackle ability. So essentially you can run as well as ever outside (which was more of the issue with power backs in the first place) and now its even harder to successfully run up the middle (one of the main issues with the game)

Tackling tech default caps should be higher and a bit cheaper, its so hard to get 90+ tackling, and its a very basic skill.
