Gale

Nuff said. I got torched so bad by Sayers tonight I just had to go public with it. This cat, who played totally sim ball ran for 355 yards on me with Gale. First it was the power o, so I did the DL fan and stuffed it for a series or two, then it was the iso, and then it was 4 rushing TDs later. I swear that guy is blindingly fast--if he even has the smallest crease it's over.

I just had to try it for myself, and I gashed a guy for a buck thirty something, but lost in OT.

I think Gale is the Earl of speed

Yeah im more afraid of gale and oj then say earl. And gale is soooo good on punts and kickoffs.

Those are the most deadliest backs in the game. Gale and O.J.

I see alot of people complain about Earl and the power backs but its these guys that really destroy.

The problem is they have the power of a power back to break tackles with the speed of a wide receiver.

Never had a problem with them except when they're used on screens. Luckily, I guess I've never played an opponent who has mastered the use of Gale. Me, I can't use him for anything. I can break a tackle but after that he's swarmed on and shut down for any repeat broken tackles.

This guy was good, I mean really good. He knew EXACTLY when to cut it up on that power o play so Gale was hitting the crease at full speed. I replayed it just because I was so amazed at the execution. If you know what you're doing with him, it's pretty dangerous.

Guys like Earl and Emmitt are brutal with their broken tackles but at least breaking those tackles slows them down. OJ, and Sayers; if theres an inch therye gonna take a mile.
Its that combo of Speed Burner and Break away.

Yup, that's the problem--you miss a tackle and they don't slow down. One funny play was when Lott hammered--I mean hammered--Gale and caused a fumble. I didn't recover, and the next play Gale's up and running full speed. There should be some kind of lasting effect from hits like that, even if only for a few plays. That's why they're called "woo hits" for god's sake!
