I am absolutely shocked that you aren't a complete liability to your team with that little strength. I think your vision is higher than it needs to be... and definately high enough that you don't need to add equipment points to it. I would both train and add SP to strength for the rest of the season. Even though you're holding up now, I don't know how long you can get by with sub 70 strength at the Center position. By all means, you should be getting run over on a fairly consistent basis.

...same feelings as Blamo. Get strength and blocking (one after another) to the soft caps. Pay 3 and even 4 Skill Points for +1.

Then get some more SA Line General.

Adam, how is your guy performing? Is he getting run over by the NT? Is he decent on running plays? What appears to be his biggest weakness to you when you watch the replays?

He does ok, he doesnt really rack up the pancakes but a lot of the time I notice him block the NT for a while then the G will block him while my C goes up to meet a LB.

I mean, he definately isn't a liability now... I don't know HOW, but watching the replays shows that he's not getting knocked on his ass on a regular basis. I'm just not sure how. Your high blocking helps out with that some, I'm sure, but once you start running into NTs with 85-90 strength on a regular basis, I have a feeling that you'll have problems. I didn't watch many replays of you in run blocking, but I can't imagine that you exactly create gaping holes on the inside. Normally, the guard leaves the double team to meet a LB... not the other way around.

How much would it cost you to remove the equipment from Vision and throw it all into Strength?

Also, if your base Strength or Blocking < 60, then spend the points to get it to 60.

Perhaps boosting Run Block/Pass Block would be better then spending almost a level to increase Strength or Blocking by 1 point.

However, if you plan on boosting for the rest of your career, then hitting the 67.98 cap might make sense.

Raising Line General to base 10 would cost him 39 points or about 10 levels.
Raising Line General to base 8 would cost him 22 points or about 5 levels.

Good luck.

My base STR is 63.5 and my base BLK is 62.5. These are without Equipment. I have taken everyones advice to heart and I am gonna take my Vision equipment which is a plus 5 and put it into Strength.
