A couple of combine ability questions

First off, does persistence reduce the charge up time on Doug?  If so, how many snaps?  Without it it’s 9. 
 

Lastly, has anyone else tried the new “brick wall” ability/xfactor?  I slapped it on Vick to try it out, and the first 3 sacks I took (in the pocket) he broke none of them. I understand the ability reads “high chance to break the first sack”, but that’s the same way freight train and angry runs is labeled, and they are basic instawins.

I wanna know which token I need to select.  What are the boosts to each?

I haven't really looked yet

All I have is the one needed to boost Vick (speed one?).  I'll look more into it when we get an opportunity to get more of them.

I had Doug and put persistent on him but it didn't charge up faster.

This is what I needed to hear.

Thank you sir

Brick wall helps break the blitzing defender but from when I used it in the past it only helps break away from DBs. Lineman still drag you down and most LBs, especially with secure tackler.

Is brick wall not new?

I know anchored extender (or whatever it's called) helps w/ the breaking of the sack by DBs, but brick wall doesn't specify any position.  

I thought it was new, maybe its not and I just haven't paid attention to it.

It’s an x factor that’s been in the game. I tried it out previous years in house rules that would auto start and it wasn’t very good. The few sacks they did break the animation would slow them down for the clean up sack anyway lol.

Thanks for your input.

Guess I won't be trying it out a second time.  Def not for 1 AP.  Thanks!

I've seen somebody try it before it's like the chad powers thing without the escape artist it's just not worth it.

Maybe that's why I never paid attention to it.  Chad Powers was the goofy AKA Eli card yea?  I had stopped playing by the time that card was released.
