Strong Safety

[cholmes1]

I am curious if anyone has the Captain Mark Barron from Bama? Can your provide me the 8 stats on the back of his card?

I am looking to upgrade my Elite Huff and since Barron is 'not for auction' I cannot see his stats.

I see Polamalu is rated the highest, but I am not really impressed with his card overall. His speed (92), his tackle (87), or his man coverage (81) seem low for the 'best strong safety'. For comparison Huff is taller, 85 speed, more awr, 92 tackle, and 82 man coverage.

I run a lot of the quarter defense which often requires my SS to have one on one matchups.

Any help is appreciated. I know I could run an elite CB or FS out of position, but I like to keep the players in there correct positions

Thanks

If you can afford it the award Patrick Peterson makes a ridiculously good SS

Re: Strong Safety

Have baron and hes decent but he gets lost from time to time. Huffs a good card but not much speed. If i had to rate id say polumalu is the best. His 97 acc helps. I lean towards pass def at the safety spot and i also like to keep true to position. Ill put pat pete as my #2 cus he will get man duties in the quarter.
1. Troy
2. Baron
T 2. Williams
4. Huff

Re: Strong Safety

I have Barron. Hands down the best next to LL Berry. Teamed up with LL Reed +2zone and he is all over the place. I never match him up 1v1 with a speedy slot Wr. Thats just good coaching most ss get torched by the slot. When I'm in man he gets the blue middle deep and reed gets slot duties. He makes big plays against the run and pass. Gets many picks for me also.

Re: Strong Safety

Is the 335 Stack the only formation in this game that employs a second SS ?

I think the quarters formation sends your SS down to be the 5th CB near the line and the backup plays the safety spot over the top.

That's the exact answer that I wanted to hear. Thanks !
