Thank you for this video

This is the first madden I've been consistently getting user lurks. It's really easier to use the linebacker or safety than it was years prior.

@forvsj3275

@Ricj 27 it's more realistic. In real life anytime an interception is thrown it's usually the QBs fault. You rarely see a lb or a safety jump and pic off a perfectly pass. It happens but not 3-4 times a game like in madden. Then again madden is FAR from simulation football.

Listen to Professor Rayweather. The man knows of what he speaks.

I appreciate the tips I noticed my picks have went with taking away one route over the middle know I’m confident enough to peel off quickly to the second route! Good stuff, I like ur tips!

I usually do well playing as free safety. It’s usually my computer that’s getting toasted.

Good content fam you gotta new sub 🔥🔥🔥🔥

This is by design in madden and in real life. as a defender your rules in pass coverage are to play deep to short. You are taught to let them catch underneath and rally to the tackle. How ever, you can gamble or the coach that week in practice will say" i know our zone rules, but against this team etc i want you to do this or that. the game is correct.

Your content is so informative!

Great Video bro

Thank you so much man

And that's the gripe that I have with madden.. even if you call a coverage where a defensive player is suppose to sit right in zone coverage in those spots, they still allow receivers to cross right in front of them and slant right in front of them unchecked as if they don't even see them.. like what's the point of calling the coverage if he's not going to cover the area he's suppose to cover.. that in effect FORCES me to have to play with a LB or S instead on being able to play with my favorite players like Donald and Bosa and Watt etc. without having to worry about slants and crossing routes killing me..I don't feel like I should be FORCED to play LB in order to be successful.. if AI players have good enough coverage skills and ratings, they should be able to defend without me having to user them

Not all zones are equal. Especially in M20. You gotta really pay attention to the type of zone each player is going to play post-snap and adjust accordingly if you don't like what you see. Things like knowing the difference between how AI players are gonna act when in a Mid Zone vs a Soft Squat vs a Seam Flat, etc., as well as how Over Vs Under coverage plays work, are key to mastering defense in Madden. The difficulty also matters a hell of a lot. If you are playing on anything less than All-Pro the AI is just plain ignorant, especially on defense. You only really see the AI defenses play as realistically as Madden is capable of when you play the game vs a high rated team on All-Madden difficulty.

I like how you repeat each tip a couple times. Well done.

So what you saying is if your playing with a game changing DL like Donald or Cox you would still user defend the middle with a LB & let cpu apply the pass rush?

Which playbook are you running with Seattle? Doesn't look like the default one.

Is there a way to hot route while the ball is in play with the vall in the QB's hands?

Geno Atkins never gets any love from you lol 😂

I always user the middle zones whether with the MLB or play robber with the safety

Been playing madden since madden 64 and I rarely played against people over the years, fast forward a few decades and I finally get into mut and it's very weird switching off the dline to user a mlb or safety, just wasn't used to it since theres literally zero reason to user against the cpu. Next madden I'll focus on playing people more and work on usering more. I'm one of those people that likes mut but would like more options for playing against the cpu too because I'm just not that into playing against people tbh.

Linebackers are nerfed? Maybe in regular modes but Ultimate they always get a crazy interception

How you get those advanced playbooks with the 46 3-4 formations and the avg yards

noooo, not my drag route. good video.

We need a video on how to stop these corner routes clouds are broken

One game after watching this I got 3 user lurks

I’m playing in a Connected Franchise where we could only use one created player. Through 10 games, I have 30 picks with 10 TDs.

I was getting killed online in madden because I kept using the D line I’ve been winning convincingly most of my games now by taking out the first route and sacking them especially if I blitz and shut out the first 2 routes it’s a wrap!

I user linebackers an most times they dont swat or pick over 15yrds. They automatically go into a tackle animation while the receiver catch the ball

Whats the CORRECT D for guys running deep out crossers with like 3 wrs running towards a side concept . I Have dime 146 man up outside wrs but i get burnt crossing LATE into the route if i dnt get pressure. Thnks comm

I wouldn't say they nerfed LBs because you cant get ridiculous interceptions where you allow a WR to run by you then accelerate super fast and pick it off or jump 10 feet in the air. Users still move a light speed in this game and are rewarded for nonsense so it really doesnt matter how well you read defenses. Users can run around in circles and cover 3 or 4 different routes on one play!

Wait what defensive playbook is this?

Yo you tryna join a madden league fantasy draft? All team are open except-Rams, Dolphins, jets,titans, Vikings, Cowboys, Saints, Steelers, Giants, philly, Ravens, Browns, and Seahawks. Draft is on Saturday.

How do you select defender

Doing that now instead of using d line

Never have a problem using the DLine I can stop that with no problem. Lol just drop a DL back into coverage..

AI sucks bc players actually stick to assignment detail. Usering especially with LBs needed to get nerfed a bit bc when running choice routes to play against the 90% of players who key on the LB receivers never seem to break off routes properly. Happy to run the ball and piss people off

Idk how you can say lb usering is nerfed, some of the picks I've seem made against me just leaves me dumbfounded.

Defensive user covers so much ground. No player can cover a drag and then go cover a deep in route.

Good tip. It still isn’t enough to overcome the abomination that is the defensive AI of the other 10 guys on the team. How do you you drop eight into coverage and have a third rate receiver catch the ball in triple coverage, shed the tackle and run it 60 yards for a TD with 0 on the clock to take the lead? Stupid Madden.
