Dump Off clarifications

Post by Harrower »

Hi all

A friend an I were just discussing Dump Off.

As far as we are aware, DO is a pass, but not a pass action, correct?

Do skills such as Pass, pass block, diving catch etc affect it as per normal?
I would imagine so as it is just a Quick pass, but just want to be sure.

Thanks

LRB 5.0 .. yes all of these skill can do used with Dump Off and it will give you 1 SPP if caught by the intended receiver.

LRB 6.0 ... same as LRB 5.0 but Pass Block cannot be used against Dump Off any more.

When does it happen??

Post by olsen667 »

Hi,
i have another question about Dump-off: Can you use it, when an opposing player is trying to blitz you, or only before a "normal" block?
I assume, it can be used when blitzed, but when exactly can you dump-off then?
When the opposing coach is initiating the blitz or just before the blocking-part of the blitz, i.e. the blitzing player already standing in the dump-off'ing player's tackle zone, therefore giving modification?

That is the correct answer.
