Boom Henry or aka cj2k?

Is power back the way to go this year in general? I know cj gets the xfactor but i havent noticed much success with it (i don't have the vintage one so its on less but still) meanwhile my free tolbert just made someone rage quit mid play after running over three defenders and breaking free for what would have been a 70 yard td (he quit when i was literally crossing the goal line) 

Anyone have any opinion or advice? Should i sell cj and get henry? Then slowly build mccaffrey up (hes 83 now) as my "speed" or elusive recieving bsck type?

Cj2k by a mile

I ended up using my leftover points on platinum packs which gave me enough to get henry (amd keep cj for now as well) coin stack is much lower now but its early enough in the year and team is good enough for sure for now, guess ill try them both. Henry impressed me in his first game, cj made some plays too as backup/3db/returner.

Which x factor is best for power backs? Why dont they show you the stipulations for activation/deactivation BEFORE you waste training on them. Theres three diff steamrollers they all cost 100 training, one is 1 ap and the other two are 0 ap, bjt no differences listed between them.

Is this intentional misleading and leaving people in the dark HOPING they waste more time/money/coins/training?

I was totally wrong, i also assumed the power / physical running type would excel this year with the adjustments to tackling and BOOM Tech nonsense... didn't exactly pan out how i had hoped.  No question, grab CJ2K, add Evasive X-factor (that starts ON) and spin your way to glory.  This is easily the best the run game has felt all year, my CMC and Mostert (at 87 SPD) was no slouch, but CJ2K is next level.  I'm not sure Derrick Henry moves the needle much, waste of coins IMO.  I'd choose Mostert over Henry in a heartbeat.

Yeah i dont know about the boom tech (that was all a lie like all thejr marketing points every year imo) but see my post above yours. Im not tech savvy enough to manage to copy paste without losing the post im typing right now.

And two games in now instead of one, i still tend to prefer Henry. But cj is good too, but i dont EVER see the stuff happen for him that did in chus vid or everyone keeps mentioning here. I think chu specifically said it only works in specific modes/situations fwiw.

I have noticed (mostly with my TE, George Kittle after dumping off quick passes) that the TRUCK move is absolutely excellent this year, which could be wonderful with King Henry.

And yes, you are correct -- my understanding is that in order to get the truly elite spin move, we'd need to be playing the game on All-Madden difficulty.

Is that an option we can select, or more of a "have to be in the top tier of h2h modes" kind of thing. Because youre right, i think he did mention all madden.
