Warrior General Games

I had two hurries like this in this single game (and a couple every game):

Spin straight at the QB but he gets off the pass just before getting sacked. Would more quickness/speed turn that into a sack? Would diving help? Or is it just that he happened to pick a passing play with a good short target?

You may as well open your build so people can get the full picture. He's only a pickup player so you won't be giving up any big team secrets.

Agree opening the build would help people give better advice.

Some of it is just bad luck. Like you said, the QB picked a short enough target and got it away. There's definitely some randomness in when the QB manages to do that or not.

In general Sprinting and Quickness will both help him close to the QB faster, but they're obviously expensive.

You mentioned Diving and I think that's a good point. People tend to leave Diving bottomed out on 12 or wherever it starts out. Personally I think bumping it up to just 15-20 is great bang for your buck on any defensive player.
