I've played with a single stand firm blitzer, and found it pretty interesting - so I'm going to have a look at a pair of them. Nufflehatesme has had a pretty effective game with his Predators.
A year ago I probably wouldn't have appreciated its value the same, but with a few more games under the belt it certainly looks a bit better. I think its one of those skills that have different utility value depending on coaching skill. |

I think having 3 stand firms or sidesteps has a nice secondary value in preventing 1 turn TDs. |

Was looking for Bad Santa too until I saw Die Hard, can't beat Die Hard.
Guess stand firm is underrated, in OBBA a lot of the big basher teams have stand firm and it's freaking annoying.
But now I have an ag4, frenzy, juggernaut human blitzer - Ho! Ho! Ho! |

Yeah, but how many games did he break by failing a dodge? :/ |

Shadowing is the most underrated skill.

Ho Ho Ho...now I have a machine gun |

Why no Ghostbusters?
I think Thick Skull on players is more underrated than SF, though I starting to take the latter more recently. |

I took SF by mistake once and I did find it valuable. Yet I don't see people mentioning my reasons:
SF usually follows Frenzy for crowd surf appeal.
DT/shadowing + SF = great ball carrier trapper.
Sure it's great for road blocking, but definitely not a first skill. |
