It’s already said that every one is looking for speed related strategies but I think strategies with awareness would be more dominant. Because every one going to have speed and no ones taking in consideration how this season is going to be. Example the Raiders are under the gun, and Washington and Carolina have new QB1’s. Philly has questions, Texans look good in preseason but do they have enough Intel to win or flop? With those questions out there having awareness would benefit the none pay to play players like me.
I pulled a Blue Strategy card with the orange boundaries called Hybrid Defense boost all CB? Never seen this one before I also run the island with +SPD the Hybrid gives ACC island gives SPD all for CB. Is this better than Secure Tackler or Inside out ? Or mind reader all blue cards
