I have a few Excellent rushers, but idk how to set one as the main back and 1 as the #2 back, if i set both backs in the backfield as halfbacks (left and right) who'll get more carries? or is there a certain way to have carries split evenly or like 70/30 or 60/40? What can i do?

You can start by not cross-posting this in multiple forums.

If you choose for your offense to prefer running right, I believe that the RB on the right side will get the most carries. I only have a couple games where I've tested that, but that's been the conclusion I've drawn from my very small sample size. Perhaps someone else can either confirm or contradict my results.

Yep, if you set your offense to attack down the left or the right, then the running back on that side will get more carries. This also would mean that recievers on that side would get more looks, so make sure you set your better reciever on that side of the ball as well.

But if I want to run an off-tackle run where the formation is a Strong I and the FB (on the Right) is lead block for the HB (who is positioned on the left for the QB hand off) who follows the FB through a hole that the RG and ROT make and the FB clears how do I do that?

One of my RB's is a blocker with high strength. How do I designate him to be my blocking power house and my Speedy HB with a high carrying skill to be my ball carrier?

Put the strong one at FB I'd imagine... And to prefer someone put them at a certain side and prefer that side. By the way, I'm killori from GLB!

Right on, thanks for the invite.

In a Strong I formation though the FB (Blocker would be on the right and the HB would be in the Center or Left. The HB would have to run right to follow the FB. So what I'm confused/worried about is that if I favor the right side will it skip the HB and just give the ball to the FB because I favored the right side? Just curious how that works.

I tried to look at plays from other games, but it's all text based. Is there a way to 'watch' the game so I can see formations used and how they worked?
