Well just to be sure

When i set rules for playbook especiall for defense playbook

and i chose score setting

When i chose for defense "lead" clause

Is this from point of MY defense -> when facing opponent offense/team which is leading then play setting

or

Is this form point of my team -> when my team is leading then dear defense play setting

Thanks for clarification!

Your TEAM is leading, or YOUR team is behind

Ok thanks!

Please understand it is from defense point of view a bit weird

Since everytime my defense is on field should play "best possible" and avoid points and it does not matter if "my team" is lead or behind

But summary is:

When doing setting is always (offense and defense) from point of own team and situation

Thanks!

True, but maybe if you're behind you want to be a little bit more aggressive with the blitz or something. I think it is one of the more sophisticated setting (a.k.a. I don't use it [at the moment]) but I'd like to get my head around it in the future.

Do you blitz LBs, or only Safeties?

I don't blitz but it seems that LBs are more involved in pass defense than safeties, atm (not many Medium or Deep passes to defend). So I plan to try out Safety blitzing at some time, but probably not LBs.

When a player blitzes, is he only looking for a sack? So, if its a running play he doesn't even try for the tackle? Would be nice to be able to use the blitz as kind of a run blitz.

Thanks Pete! I thought so, just wanted to confirmation and didn't want to start digging through the forums.
