Hey all
I have read that inteligence is key for MLBs and Im running 3-4 so I should have 2 high INT MLBs ? Or does it count if I have only 1 ?
and same aplies for safeties too?

Help a noob get his D together

Thanks for the input. Im sure going to look to my D guys INTs. Altough this early I dont think it matters so much but I definately have to recruit acordingly.
While we're at it what other positions besides the obvious QB you guys think need fair amount of INT?

From what I remember of the admins post about LB int, one intelligent MLB is all you need, because the MLB with the highest INT is the one that makes that call if needed. As for Safeties, I try to make sure all safeties have high INT. They're not changing plays or making calls, I'm taking it as they are reading the QB and need to be smart enough to know what to do based on the QB's actions. This could be way off from how the game actually works, but Admins have said that Safeties need INT.

As far as we know, the only positions that really need INT are QB, SF, and MLB. We don't really know what is considered good enough. You've seen some opinions already. I'm sure some have lower standards, just as some have higher standards.

My QB and MLB, I want 18>
My Safeties, I want 16>

if its only one LB that counts then Im in pretty good situation with QB and MLB with 19Int and safties are 18 and 17.
just need to stack other positions with some cheap talent while building my stadium now I guess. I need to pray football gods to give me few talented recruits in next weeks

I c it not much differently either.
So "if you play 6 Safeties (FSRCL) they need not be intelligent." (I kinda expect it to be otherwise in GI) Has ne1 experimented with that?
