PRO FOOTBALL STACKING

[mantaraydre]

Coaches,

There will always be a different outlook in this game depending on styles.

Playing the MPFL style and now the PRO SET. You are pretty much taught to have your linebackers @ least 5 yards back sitting on magnets. THIS IS DUE TO THE STOPPAGES SYSTEM. You read then react after the first stoppage.
If run, take them off there magnets and have them run up and make the tackle.
If pass, some will stay on the magnets and some will blitz. Depends on the situation. In the MPFL or PRO SET you will get killed if you stack because the systems are balance friendly for coaches to pass or run. So you will always have to play both equally. In the pro set league STACKING IS ALLOWED. Smitty did not want to take that away from coaches. In this system it will only hurt coaches and they will stop as the game goes on.
Due the the rule where wr's can pivot off the db's. One slight opening down field that 4yard passing stick comes out and the wr is going for his catch.

Being that pass simulation is a major part of these systems, a coaches passing game via ttqb can be way off. But there is still the pass simulation option which keeps the game open at all times. With that said, the linebackers can not afford to be placed in a stack on a first and 10 or 2nd and 5.

Another note is due to playing on scale size boards which are much larger, leaves for much more wide open space all over the field. So with the combination of

1)qb must hand off and not block
2)passing options in case one is not working
3)more open space
4)and the stops themselves.

Really leaves no reason to stack.

It is just a matter of what style you personally like that will put you closer to playing how you see it on tv.
