How you guys are getting 8 sacks a game is beyond me. Im no rookie at the game so its very odd.

I control the DT only and he doesn't get many sacks. Don't blitz. The AI will recognixe the open man and light you up quick. If you play 3-4, only blitz the weakside LB. Zone blitzes can be effective. Standard blitzes very rarely work.

Fist, tried your sliders, only a handful of zone blitzes and played as DT. Im the second season of my dynasty as UGA. Lost in the Cotton Bowl the year before. Im No. 9 playing against No. 18 Michigan...tried the no penalites theory in half no. 1...here are the stats

First Half
No. 18 Mich 28, No. 9 UGA 8

Stafford 7 of 16 61 yds 0 TD 3 INT Long 21 Sack 1
Moreno 8 car 23 yds Long 5 ypc 2.6
Rest of Team 3 car 9 yds

Justin Feagan 17 of 24 159 3 TD 1 INT Comp 70% (82 accuarcy rating) Long 21 0 SACKS
Team Rushing 12 68 yds Long 21 5.2 ypc

UGA Score Pick 6


and in the second half tried the all at 100 penalty per your sliders...here are the final numbres

Mich 44, UGA 14

UGA
Pass 11 of 33 112 7 INT 0 TD
Rush 29 for 71 1 TD

Mich
Pass 21 for 33 205 3 TD
Rush 28 for 98 TD

Now Ill admit the last couple of picks were just duck and chuck and I didnt really care any more. But in the first half, none were thrown into double coverage...all single coverage. Had two sacks. One was nearly a saftey, the other was on a screen.

Screens were the only time I got close to the QB. I didnt hit him but I got close. Nothing was different. I dont get it but ive never been beaten like this before. Im not great but Im a better player than this. This game was literally impossible. If Heisman and not blitzing are the only way to get pressure on the QB then Im screwed. How are you guys pulling this off.

Ive never gotten 8, i usually drop back into coverage rather than going after the qb consistently. I'm dropping my pass block sliders to zero in my dynasty.. the users are killing the cpu on all american, i don't want to go to heisman because then everyone plays like a superstar cpu included.

my od is playing with a slightly easier version on fist's sliders (only a few changes) and maryland (hum player) will have the dlineman of the year with their de who is a dominating pass rusher. not blitzing i pretty key and the only time i do i bring the pressure to the outside. i averaged 2.5 sacks a game this year without a elite pass rusher. you will have more success getting sacks if you only rush four and have good coverage. also having your d awarness at zero will allow you to get more sacks. our sack totals went up huge when we dropped from 40 on hum d awarness to 0. dont know why but it worked.

[jtblack2]

How many of yalls sacks come on screen's. Im getting between 1-3 a game and most are on screens...If someone gets on the HB, the QB holds onto the ball. I get a few blitzing off the edge, but NONE from the line. I cant beat only with UGAs front four.

[Rhudey]

Yeah, cpu tries 4 or 5 of those screens a game, which never work, and result in sacks. Its really the only way I get sacks. AI needs a huge overhaul.

[thelasthurtknee]

if your playing on heisman the cpu qb will get rid of the ball quick on screens unless you are in cover two or if you have the rb cover and the qb takes a coverage sack. pretty gay any way you look at it. i had 10 sacks with my le and 10 on the rest of the line for starters. so 20 from my front 4. i had 26 on the year total, i would say about 10 were off screens. take em when you can get them.

I have been getting good sack numbers. I get 3-5 a game and not on screens but true 5 step drops. I control a fast DE only usually the RE. At the snap on pass plays I start up field toward the QB. As the tackle gets into pass block position I cut back toward the middle of the field where my DT is. With the speed I get by the tackle and have a free run. This make the QB move are step up and I get the sack. I only call a blitz on long 3rd downs. I mix up zone and man. I even have other lineman break off their block and get sacks. I just started a new dynasty with Zona (just wanted to make them a power for some reason) and in week 1 I had 7 team sacks.
This is what my sliders are:
AA w/ 8 min. qtr.
CPU pass block at 0
Hum break block at 100
Hum D awr at 40
CPU run blk at 65 (to get them to run)
The other sliders have to your skill.
You will not get sacks if you allow the o-line to lock up with your guy. That is why I cut back toward the middle to get around the tackle. It's like the CPU QB knows when your get past the tackle and steps up so trying to run around doesn't work. I have been playing like this for 2 months now and have great success on D. I even force over throws and under throws. The one thing you have to do is not get locked up with a player because you will get riped. I do use the turbo button.

i get like 8 sacks per DT and and maybe 10 from one of my DE's and 5 from the other one. the key is u gotta recruit "pass rushers" or jus fast Defensive linemen. all of mine are 70 or faster especially my DE's, most of them in the 80's, they fast as a linebacker and speakin of linebackers, u gotta get fast linebacker. they forty time gotta be under 4.48 (84)
