Lowkey Rhamondre Stevenson is NASTY

I've faced him a few times and can concur. Also, Ashton Jeanty seemed to break away more tackles than seemed reasonable nearly each and every time I played against him. 

I'm using Saquon as HB, for team chems / boosts, then have big Faalele as my 3rd Down Back & Power Halfback, so I don't have to constantly sub players and they inevitably end up splitting carriers & touches

I would hate to play you. 

And yes I have been obliterated by Jeanty in the most disgusting ways.

That new saquon is nice.

Breaks a lotttt of tackles.

I hate playing against or playing with fat running backs, end of story.

Agreed the new Saquon is amazing.

The power gap between top tier cards and everything else isn't nearly what it could be back in JAN/FEB, when it required some actual thought and skill to achieve meaningful boosts.  Not to mention, i'm not even particularly good at the game.  I've barely play offense in months, primarily just Squads play, where i'm defensive coordinator.  All other game modes stopped being fun some time ago.  I think i went ~3 days without even completing my M25 Dailies.

And i refuse to go full rat-fink and abuse the various cheese, which is entirely possible this late in the year.  I try to mix up play calls and make tons of bad reads and neglect to step up in the pocket and/or take off scrambling with my QB.  Needless to say, i have tons of room for improvement, but i just cannot commit to the offensive side of the ball the way i have with defense, probably because i'm terrible at it.  Some weird self-defense mechanism.

Regardless, I hate myself for participating in these bullshit pay to win game mechanics, which have absolutely zero business being part of any online, H2H "competitive" gaming.  Use the Fortnite model; sell cosmetics, uniform packs, maybe custom touchdown celebrations (kids would pay five bucks to Griddy on my old man ass) and whatever else they can think to monetize, but F off on running this casino for children, that is nefarious stuff and is/should be downright illegal.  Sorry, don't mind me, old man shouting at clouds.  Cannot seem to help myself, got way off topic, ranting and raving, as i tend to do.

No worries. I enjoy hearing all these perspectives! I could read these all day! And at least Casinos give us a chance to actually win money...

PS> I am no spring chicken myself LOL

If you like the smaller backs, dont sleep on Deuce Vaughn.  Have not fumbled once and he sneaks through any gap.  breaks a good amount of tackles too.  And he catches like a WR.

Energizer Bunny... just keeps going.

Josh Jacobs has been really good for me. Saquan is very good as well.

Pacheco has been a solid #2 for me behind Faalele. Great runner. Also nice change of pace from a big RBs. I’ve also seen CMC used effectively.

He is so tough to take down

I got to be honest. I enjoy reading your rants.

CJ2K has broken so many tackles for me. Im also on old gen so that might make a difference. I had Faalele for a couple games. I didn't like him, his spin is not as effective as it is on new gen. So I sold him for 200k more than what I bought him. Huge W for me.

I appreciate that there are folks out there who find some value in these little diatribes. It's certainly not for everyone, I can be a bit of an acquired taste, with the rambling, often unhinged, stream of consciousness style writing...

Thank you for the kind words, brother.
