Just for my own curiosity could some try to succinctly explain DAG?


Blitz that plays on poor QB builds, bad G builds, bad OC's or if none of the former, to get easy sacks from 14+ yards. Once you get some sacks and they spiral, they have half their stats and you just show the blitz down their throat.

Pretty much if you have one of the four happen all the time you just lose.

By having half the stats do you mean from loss of heart/being intimidated?

LOL nm just read your earlier post... stamina and morale, although I'm guessing those two are effected as well.

That would do zero. The reason DAG works is all it needs is two-four sacks to snowball your stamina and morale. After that you can't make your reads fast enough and just lose.


HB Dive from some passing formations should work against DAG but doesn't in large part because the RG turns and walks in the wrong direction. Not sure if that's a "bad G" build as you've said but it's very common in the games that I've seen.

My idea was just a quick thought though. Reading your post and thinking quick again: QB Awareness could also be increased if a defensive play is used too frequently. There are many ways the game could balance itself by simply having diminishing returns when using the same play.

The guard pulling instead of going straight ahead is a pathing issue. Something outside of our control. You can make the best of it though by not just running dives, and instead targeting the gap made by the LB and DE.

Probably my least favorite thing in GLB2. By far.

ugh... I felt like I just watched a replay of the first game we played...

RBs fumbling in the clutch (twice in the last 6 minutes, high double-digit drops, and the hold of the century on that 78 yard run

My SS brian dawkins who forced the first of the 2 back to back fumbles has "force fumble traits" that most wouldnt expect either, if that makes you feel better about the play

haha that's right, two missed FGs too...

really regretting not having mr reliable SA on either of the RBs... really came back to bite us in the @$$ the last few games...

do you have some crazy high deflecting or intimidation on your CBs?! The number of drops we have had against you is like 2 or 3x as many as we have against any other team. QBs had no problem getting the passes off, receivers just did zilch that game



sooooooooooo frustrating... looking forward to overhauling a good bit of our team this offseason, and starting fresh... I've already started making cuts
