    What does setting the offensive line to "Aggressive" do?

    Does it make your line push forward harder on run plays? What about on pass plays?

    It's about how much the offensive line spreads out in their blocking scheme.

    Aggressive has them block in an outward direction, while pinch has them create more of a tight pocket.

    Aggressive/Pinch are analogous to the defensive line's ability to crash in or out.

      Oh, okay. So if I suspect something like a blitz from the front four and two outside linebackers around the edge, it would behoove me to set the line to Aggressive on run and pass?

        Aggressive is great if you plan on unloading the ball quickly. They won't be able to hold their blocks as long, but they'll drive the D back a bit, great for 3 step drops.
