lmao...seriously I didnt notice your name was "backbreaker"...I just was saying since you wanted real serious hits, try the game Backbreaker lol...cause those games really deliver those tackles you might be looking for...but nah I'm not trying to take a shot at you..I really didnt even notice your name being backbreaker honestly...

The Lendale White tackle looked a little off as all of his momentum was stopped by a tackle from the side, but everything else looked great. Can't wait for August.

It is because of the angle he took to the tackle. No way Landry stops all 235lbs. (yeah right, lol) at that angle. White would just fall into the endzone.

Ian says it's being tuned so all's good.

True, I'm not worried about anything right now to tell you the truth, I think this dev team is like a greased up cheetah on a water slide... (?)

I think they'll have it all handled.

Not looking for over the top. Most, if not all defenders(Prime Time exception) bring the wood when a defender is being held up, since their is no advantage for a defender to push him backwards(forward momentum rule) so to bring him down where he stands or deliver a blow that may jar the ball loose or even strip the ball. The only time a defender gets in a grab azz scenario is when he grabs from behind, most of the time from the side and in front its a collision either the back bounces off the tackle or he runs over the defender.

Oh damn! That's what I want to know about as well. Maybe next couple of blogs. Maybe another way of utilizing stick skills for a receiver?
