Best Man coverage tips and players

Byron Jones (DZKO, FZKO and PA for 1AP) and Deion Sanders (MZKO, PA for 0 AP) have to be in your zone scheme. As for the other guys, not sure yet. I’m testing this out myself. I had Parham and Carmichael. Parham kept getting burned so I moved him to SS and he’s been great there. Chad Johnson/Joey Porter (Comp Pass) are very helpful with the 2AP for universal/PA. Kyle Hamilton and Jay Ward are great as well. The problem is figuring out where to place everyone.

I'm having the same problem.

Yes but even against 99 WRs with route tech it makes man coverage very hard esp against corner and post routes. I definitely think that zone is the way to go with 99 WRs with route tech or any 2 0ap ability WRs

Ok ty. I think so also actually haha. Maybe I will have to shift again ahhh

Yep it can be pretty annoying but it was worth it when I made the switch

I have Peppers as my Sub LB next to my user (Hendricks). I love that I can change between two 6’7” guys

Idk I’ve been running man all year and use to find sucess with osa and inside shade,  but now with all the double ap WR getting short in, out elite and deep out elite i find its Harder to run man and am considering moving to zone as they are getting burnt now a lot more

Yeah I was a man guy too. But I run that stack short in,short out, deep out on my WR1&2 and it's huge.

Man has never been really great (in my opinion as ive never had a problem beating it). Wrs just can easily burn them if you don't have a shade and if you have shade with no KO the WR will just catch it anyways (unless the corner winds up in front of him but in that case it would just be a dumb throw anyways). And now it's weaker than ever with all the WRs that are getting 2 0 AP abilities making them get burnt a lot more. A lot of lineman coming out with 2 0 AP abilities as well or just SP for free making the pressure not get there as much either.

Thanks! Any tips on replacing CB2 Sherman? He's been god tier except on deep bombs and I have DRKO/DZKO equipped. Figure i can sell him and either get budget beast or RP guy

I honestly loved Sherman. Only reason I moved on is because theres other players with better AP value. But if you got the AP, id suggest you keep him or upgrade to the taller CBs (Carmichael or Parham) It depends what you run but I decided to just stay full time zone now as I’m not as good at man. I run DZKO FZKO and PA on both my outside corners (Byron Jones and DJ Turner). I don’t think they’re the best CBs but they do provided the best AP value. I then run Deion at Slot CB (MZKO, DRKO, PA for 1 AP) and Parham at Slot CB2 (DRKO and PA for 0 AP). This is for my Dollar defense. I also run 3-3-5 and audible to 3-3-5 Cub.

Thanks for the advice! Depending how things go with completing RP, I'll try them out. I've been running quarters out of the panthers playbook, and i know cb2 will give up plays from time to time but just seeing if i could improve there.

Sounds like you've got a deadly secondary lol

Yeah most of the guys I have are pretty cheap except ofcourse Parham but you can just use someone like Chris McAllister and slap on Inside Shade or MZKO. He’s very good. I sometimes use CB Carmichael but I can’t find a spot for him now, he was excellent for me and made some clutch plays. I love working on the Secondary as there’s just so many combinations you can make depending on your scheme and so many great players to choose from this year. Good luck man!
