RPOs/bubble screens are deadly w Pickens

Wow..I just tried something that worked very well of any of you guys want to try..

The d was playing off a bit and the CBs were not good blockshed CBs.....

So I decided to sub in Pickens w honorary lineman and run RPO bubble screens behind him.  Man, he was flattening guys. 

Of course you can't do this every play but if you guys wanna try,  itcan be really effective.  Brings the d up  closer and then you can take a deep shot when they didn't suspect it

Welcome to my "ruin your gameplay experience" offense.  I couple him with Roddy White with honorary lineman on both.  Perfect for cheeser defense users.

Bubble screens  are very good in my opinion

Lol yeah I guess it is good agaimst those guys running cheese on D .....

I have always liked TEs and WRs that are great run blockers,  like Hines Ward for example.

Wow never considered this gonna have to add it to the toolbox for sure

Kinda wish Travis Kelce was a better blocker, can't afford Pickens but would have liked to try this with Julian Edelman and Travis Kelce.

I pulled pickens but I didn't keep him

I hope Hines' next card gets Honorary Linemen for 0 AP to pair with Pickens. He Team Diamond had it for 1 AP and he was one of the greatest run blocking receivers of all time, so I have to imagine he'll get it discounted.

At first glance I didn't like the card either but when I saw 99 impact blocking and 0 AP hon lineman I put him in as my 5th WR and sub him in when I want his blocking

Pairing Hines with Pickens and adding Roddy White would be insane. 3 WRs with 0 AP honorary lineman would be beautiful. Add to that Delanie Walker at TE and Gronk at FB and it's like you have 9 O linemen out there blocking at any time !

Yep. Best blocking stats. of any WR in the game and will likely remain that way until GTs

I have seen a lot of football. Honestly  I am 55 yrs old and have been into the game since I was like 5. There has never been a better blocking WR than Hines Ward in the NFL or at any level I have ever seen
