Maybe it does. I don't know. I don't know if there are any line shifts in real life. Someone with advance football expertise, please chime in and enlighten me
Yeah, slide protection is supposed to be for pass blocking, not sure if it works for running in the game, but it shouldn't really be a factor.

Re: Can anyone run the ball?

The only slider I mess with is the Clipping slider because it happens so damn much. I'm averaging about 5 ypc with Louisville regardless of my back. Around 6-7 with Vic Anderson (89) overall.

Re: Can anyone run the ball?

Just finished another AA game vs New Mexico
27 rushes, 68 yards, 1 TD's.

I thought I was doing better. Holding the cover up button made me have a little more control. Ill keep pratce I guess. I did have a few goal line carries though that dropped my average.

Texas Tech run blockers must be terrible.

Re: Can anyone run the ball?

I have noticed a difference in run blocking out of the Shotgun versus under center. Seems like run blocking out of the Shotgun is worse than run blocking from under center. Just played a play now game as UNC running mostly from under center and put up almost 300 yards rushing. For whatever reason it seemed like there was alot less missed blocks and my o-line was getting a better push than when I have played as teams who run mostly out of the Shotgun.

defiantly what I've seen as well. I get lucky playing as Texas Tech to get a few big runs as the defense starts to key on my passing game.
