Blitz (CB): This ability provides a boost to Speed and Agility when the player is blitzing. My guess is that it only activates when the sim reads that a player is blitzing (either as a primary assignment or if his last option in the DPC is to blitz and his first assignments are not met - say, because he is assigned to cover the HB but the HB stays in to pass block). In other words, if the QB starts to scramble and the LB goes after him, this would not count as a blitz. Again this is unconfirmed by Bort but I am pretty sure of it. If I am right this SA can be activated on both passing or rushing plays, so long as the player who has it is assigned to blitz.
Regarding Blitz, I think I recall Bort once saying a player is blitzing any time they are rushing a QB who is attempting to pass, regardless of the defensive player's position. On designed rushing plays or once the QB tucks to run, players are not blitzing.
I could well be wrong about the specifics of my recollection.
Yep, that is what I am saying.
