cutback vs quick feet

[bakedpotato4103]

I decided to create an elusive back, and I gave him cutback and quick feet. Are they a little redundant? What is the difference between the 2?

I think cutback might give you more control over your lateral movements while quickfeet makes him more effective with spins and jukes and stuff. i may be wrong though so don't take this for truth. I think feet also helps with routes.

Finesse is the ability for spins & moves. Not quite sure what quickfeet is.

ya, i have finesse so i can do the level 2 moves, but i wanted to be able to navigate around blockers. I put quick feet and cutback, but I dont know if 1 of them is pointless to have.

Thinking... I imagine quick feet would help you get around blockers, cutback would be hard cuts (ie running up-left then quickly start running up-right).

Here's the descriptions

Cutback - Player is quick out of cuts.
Quickfeet - Player has top-notch agility for his position.

Here's a definition of agility.

Agility - Ability to explosively brake, change direction and accelerate again

I tend to use Cutback first, and Quickfeet second when creating a HB. Quickfeet appears to give a player the ability to stop / run faster (think acceleration / deceleration) where as Cutback appears to ensure that you don't lose speed when you change direction (cut).

thanks. Sounds like they are both useful then.

Doesn't the game itself has a section that says what they do, I don't have my 360 at the moment but check there first.

I think quick feet allows you to quickly transition between slowing down and speeding up. Cutback is when carrying the ball you can change directions without momentum slowing you down.
