No break tackle or fake % and low carrying

EDIT: Reply deleted. I typically don't respond to trolling.

I sure hope that isn't what passes for trolling these days. Was it necessary to comment? Probably not. Did you ask for advice? No. But let's not pretend that what I posted was a legitimate troll attempt or untrue. There's not much else going on in GLB so I posted. It's your flex and dot and you can build him however you want, my intent was merely to inject some constructive criticism. You have a 3 major dot with 3 AEQ that isn't fully upgraded and couldn't manage to break 1300 EL (this shows a lack of efficiency in how you built). 69 carrying a quite low for a plateau dot that is a rusher, carrying is important for breaking tackles and of course not fumbling. You have no % gear to back up any of the SAs you put resources into getting up to 10 making those considerably less effective. With his speed he probably gets out ahead of his blockers which are of vital importance to being able to spring any play for good yardage against competent opponents. When he does get out all alone he is unable to break any tackles making that problem even worse.

Just because you're offended does not mean I am wrong. Regardless I have never personally had a problem with you and do not wish to turn this into a flame war. So you can take it or leave it, that's up to you. Best of luck to you and your dot.

I do believe that I am fully aware of the impact of carrying and break %. And let's toss out the fact that the AE store hates me and my players always end up short on AE.

Cover Up has more than made-up for his 73 carrying and break tackle % is huge for a HB, but QB doesn't need to break the big one to be effective. Next season I might go to Mr Reliable too to help avoid fumbles.

Then there is the stats that have shown that fumbles have not been an issue and he's had no problem breaking the big run. He's had plenty of scrimmages against nat pro and WL teams when he was on my Punks teams (season 41 and earlier). Opinions are one thing but no one argues with stats.

If he does have these problems I'll have no problem retiring him. I wouldn't even let my own player play if I didn't think he was as good as he could be. His natural 100 speed and natural 100 agility give him plenty of ability.
