This is the case in the NFL. O-line never sub out except for injury.


Actually, I believe New England substitutes their O-line after every series.

Yeah I'm in Cus-35 and a few teams have insane sack numbers....Multiple team members with 15+ sacks! I'm willing to bet that someone has 50 sacks alone this season!

I think improving the qb to throw the ball away will help and to take off and run little bit more too! More check down throws when they see the blitz...But increasing the OL will help a lot more....Some of these guys with a lot of sacks are converted SS/FS or LBs with flat out speed....I'd also like to see more elite players play elite....It seems like only RB, WR, Safeties and QB's matter in that department....

I think this is what causes a lot of sacks, the QB rolls out almost to the sideline and then just takes the sack.

I also question the factors of a QB's field of vision as most QB's will still try and force the ball into double or triple coverage just because the way the play is designed instead of checking down to wide open TE's or HB's.

I personally don't see the QB attributes having much, if any, impact on how he plays at all. It seems to all be a random dice roll.

I have QBs with very high accuracy, field of vision, etc., that still continue to overlook wide open receivers, etc.
