Sorry, no, I’m staying away from the abomination what ifs.
Bo Jackson plays amazingly and has come down in price and the new Ron Dayne looks good too.
There’s some other abomination what if RB who is a defender that looked great too - Brooks ?

I have Brooks as one of my HB. He's really good for me but keep in mind I grind mostly CPU modes and I know cards perform differently on H2H. ✌️

I think he will do just fine, I am with WillGallagher and staying away form them, but everyone who's had him seems to tear up my defense

I can't speak on how Brooks does in H2H but in CPU modes, he's every bit as good as Love if you don't count the ability discounts. But even still, I have six different abilities on love and only gold shifty on Brooks and Brooks still feels every bit as good as Love to me. 🤷♂️✌️

I also think the slighter frame HBs have a speed burst advantage. I do have and love Bo, but my Love, Brooks, and even J'Koby Williams get to that edge so much smoother at least for me. I actually have Bo as a FB LOL But in the offense my playbook has a lot of FB runs so it works out :)

Which playbook you using? Everything I've tried only has a FB dive and maybe one play action route.

I'm trying to master the option offense, because when I run it in H2H people don't always know how to defend. Most teams have very light boxes because everyone is pass-centric. Most FB run playbooks are Option playbook (19), Air force (16), Navy (14), Army (11), and then Iowa St. has 5, and UAB has 4....and then everyone else has like 2 or 3 plays. It can be frustrating if you have a lot of great receivers because the passing concepts clearly are not as good as like an Oregon or Oklahoma St., and there are almost no RPOs haha

Ok cool. Most everything I've used this year has been Pro Style, Spread and Air Raid. Being relatively new back into video game football (Madden 25 was my first time back since ESPN 2K5, Lol) I still struggle with the stick mechanics of RPOs and stuff like that. I also struggle a bit still sorting out coverage pre snap if I'm in bunch formations so I tend to use spreads. Just looks like more of what I'm use to from old school games where you had less choices. Lol. Now that I'm getting use to it I'll have to try some option playbooks. Thanks. ✌️
