Hey guys, I have a question here!

What are your experiences on playing the position on Safeties: central, left or right? How does it affect in the game each other??

Even anyone plays or had play with 2 safeties? Is that good?

Plz feel free to explain me ^^; thanks

SS-C helps defend the run.
SS-L and SS-R help against passing.

Or at least that is what we can see, but we only have information on defensive plays on run plays where we are told who tackles.

Some also state that the SS-C should have high INT since he - along with the MLB - try to figure out whether it is a pass or run play next. Like that has any obvious influence on the defence's performance as far as I can see...

Thank you very much!

I understood about SS's but what about FS-L&R and FS-C?

Allegedly, they defend the pass, but how, when, where and why we do not know. Your pass defense can be with 3 FS's, no FS's and still perform in any way you like.

Only thing I know is that you should play your best 11 on defense. If that is 5 DL's, 4LB's and 2 CB's - then that is the best defense. The defense in GI is zone-defense, so your players will just be covering larger zones if there are no FS/SS's.
