My guess is none since it's not possible yet (other than intelligence and physicals) Tell you what if Tackling is the only important skill in the game you play me with 3 and 4 passers and catchers and see how they do against a developed defense.

if the developed defense can tackle, then the defense will do well. defense in GI is about stopping the offense when it gets its lucky roll. if you cant stop it then, then you are good. of course other skills matter, but the single most important game breaking skill is tackling.
on offense, breaking tackles (which i assume has many many factors) is what wins you games.


my 8 passing, 7 vision 20 intel qb with a Oline of 10+blocking and 15+ str each (ot with 7 footwork each) with 4 wr each with 15+ speed and each with no less than 5 catching will probably complete 1 out of 10 passes against a bot defense. its not the defense doing well in this case, its just offense not working
