New guy with a speed question!

Great site thanks!

I got my CJ at plus 8 acc and still can’t just run past cbs like some of you all do to me…. How do you do it?  LOL!

What is his speed? That’s gonna Be most important. And now with DBs being 99 speed and 99 accel you’re just not gonna be able to do it all the time

It’s likely more about defensive scheme. If you man press against him he will get some good press wins sometimes.

Are you referring to CJ Stroud?

Just a heads up QB speed will be nerfed for whatever reason. EA just programs the game that way. In order to break off a long QB run you need to learn how to follow the blocks and accelerate once you hit the hole. Don't hold the sprint button behind the line of scrimmage.

QB Wrap is currently the best QB run in the game. I use that pretty often along with Buck Sweep Read Option out of Ravens playbook. Both heavily utilize the offensive line moving with the run, so if you can read the holes you'll be able to run pretty effectively.

Got me 300+ yards rushing between Flash (no X-Factor) and Tim Tebow in my last H2H Super Bowl.

Now that I think about I think I misunderstood the player you were referring to. Still if you have a mobile quarterback you can still use this advice!

Thanks!  I have Timmy T right now!  Thinking about ditching renegades for select UL chems to pair with team and Legend chems!

Maybe I play Cover 3 sky a lot and half the deep corners which usually doesn’t get me beat but by a select few.  maybe I’m using the wrong play,  I sky usually doesn’t get me beat deep!   I’ve been playing man with OSA but that’s been getting beat so I’m thinking of setting up a zone coverage if I can find good corner with free zones!  need Some slots with free mid zone to get the hooks, seams and curls in one….  I usually go for picks but have been getting lots of PI calls recently….

Spied should be 101, still just using sugar rush and legends!  It cost to much to theme team 50 or how ever many with the double double team chems and team chem strat right now!   Maybe you guys have me by 1 speed since I’m still using legend!  I gave Mut Missions a try but only like one guy on my team seemed to be affected!  I have Youngblood and he was getting nothing out of it, one guy lit up as being affected And that’s with 6 renegades and Gates!

I forgot I have the specialist chem too so plus 9 acc so Calvin is at 101 spd and 108 acc Doing the math and other he still has trouble getting open yet some of you guys torch me!  
 

Ill back the press off…. I usually play over the top but maybe I forget sometimes!  It doesn’t happen much but with certain H2H players!  Leon usually does his cover 2 thing and I worry when even that gets beat!

Does it even go over 99?  My NTL should be 105 speed  104 acc!   He doesn’t get burned!  Mostly everyone tries to pick on Patrick Peterson with OSA!  I have NTL with OSA to which is expensive basically cost passrush abilities!  I might drop the OSA and and work out a multizone so guys can’t pick it apart so easily!    I might drop the renegades cause I’m only starting 3 since the AP drop!  The burned one sucks!  96 shoulda been 2AP to.  Even BB with the built in background xfactors you have to be selective since they are 2AP to even use!

not sure if it goes over 99 on the field this year. Some years it does but they took off the WR DB comparison thingy so who knows

Ah gotcha. Try running Short Out Elite on him. It has some crazy beat press capabilities

Might be a good idea. I've got NTL on defense so I only needed 4 of the 93 renegades as backups
