TALL DEFENSIVE PLAYERS

That's just end of year madden for you. 99 speed 6'4+ DBs in drop zones. RPO mania on offense. If you are still attempting to pass it usually has to be deep, or checkdowns. 

Man coverage is for sure a no skill defense, if it worked it would take no skill. This year if someone bags me with man coverage I 100% just suck, there's usually at least 2 routes open anytime someone runs man coverage. So if it's bagged they must be individually shading their dbs to perfection

I've only dealt with it like three or four times all year (which is only barely 140 games in H2H). Three times it was easy, just annoying. Wheeling the RB was pretty free, and then just having guys get open occasionally enough to dink and dunk down the field. But one time, I was getting DDA'd into oblivion. Fucker was only sending Donald with Unstoppable Force with Flat Zones and a QB Spy. Couldn't block Donald with Secure Protector, All Day, and Post Up. Utterly miserable garbage.

pass rush is so random, I have parsons, randle, and klecko with either unstoppable force or colossus and sometimes a 3 man rush is fine, and sometimes I have to get into 61 and blitz 6 every play to get any pressure.

I never said I had a problem with people sprinkling in man into their defense, that's part of playing good defense. But if (the proverbial) you are out here running One Step Ahead, Bottleneck, and KOs you're just a loser who needs to get the console your mom bought for you tossed out the window, 'cause you clearly don't wanna play games anyway.

I wont disagree, mainly because I just run both things instead of only one or other. Never been one to care about the meta

Well, the game can't seem to cover anything with eight dropping into coverage. Might as well make a defensive lineman a superhero and drop ten into coverage, and maybe someone makes a stop.

You seem to have a problem with the way users play defense, but some of us users have a problem with the way Madden's AI defends. And unfortunately, most offensive users now have a free Identifier, so if the defensive user is any good, they just progress through the receivers the opposing user won't be able to cover, and surely one of them will get open after the offensive line holds the defense for four seconds.

Just admit that the game is currently being run by ability roshambo, and everyone wants an edge after already being beaten by the same predictable offensive plays over one hundred times already this past month.

I did this last year. this year I can't line up a hit stick to save my life

You kind of have to pratice it, I have that the hot stick animation this year is a little bit different the. Maddens of old.

The OOP tall DBs is absurd and out of hand, they bail kids out of bad defenses constantly. Earlier today I had a Carmichael jump a corner route he was no where close to, literally 15 yards away. 

Man-coverage is one of scummiest defenses, it's just wanting EA to play the game for you. The kids run it don't know what they're doing, they're just praying EA bails them out enough.

Sounds like a skill issue

Well I always run Man Coverage cause I rage whenever a zone coverage gets smoked & I only allow 3.78 points per game 😎 lotta rage quits I take pride in my Man Coverage I mainly user the SUBLB SS & cover the TE as thats almost everybodies first read then my D-Line just smokes the QB cause he has to find another read 😂

what base defense so do you run in man? Also what abilites?

A mix of 3-4 // 6-1 // 4-3 & sometimes I’ll use a blitz if i’m up 3 TD’s or more

I also audible zone coverage if a player quick huddles cause most of the time they saw something open but I’ll quickly shut that down 

I use the Chiefs Defensive Playbook

and I use One Step ahead , Bottle Neck & Universal you can equip all 3 with the TTAS players as they get 2 free abilities & a charge up  x factor 

but CB Revis gets all those for 2 AP 

SS Peppers gets 1 Step Ahead for 1 AP 

My Man Defense is 

Revis , Gonzalez , Talib & Harris in the Slot 

SUBLB SS Peppers & One of the TTAS SS 

Then my FS & SS are Surtain & The other TTAS SS Gardner Johnson but they mainly play the high 2 zone coverage but they’ll play man coverage when I audible a blitz with my 2 SUB LB

D-Line is Parsons , Randle , Watt & Donald I would have LE Peppers but it wont let me have both on field yet so I swap em out here & there cause I mainly User the SS Peppers for his height

Kid, having EA play defense for you isn't something to be proud of. If EA isn't handing you DDA hand over fist, any decent player is blowing you out of the water. 

And people wonder why kids these days are depressing to look at. They don't even want to play the video games their mom buys for them, they want it played for them while they run their mouth. Just pathetic.

homie hating because you don’t play madden the way he does. that’s crazy bro talking down on somebody because he doesn’t play zone. Go watch another 8 hours of YouTube today. Maybe one day you’ll be half as good as that YouTuber your watch buddy. (Doubt it tho )

Kiss the ring also commented this on another post “Just run the ball with Omaha, Angry Runs, and Vanguards. Get in, get your OBJ, and get the fuck out. 

I got to 50 wins and got tired of having to sweat too much against the nerds who refused to leave when they had no chance of winning, so I just switched to spamming the run, made it infinitely easier.” sounds like your a part of the issue bro bro. Your lack of skill requires you too give in and play like others? . Then you put others down. That’s crazy dawg I got my 80 wins and it didn’t require me too play down too others people level. I play my own game idc how the rest of the community plays. At least most people can message me after the game and say gg’s win or lose.

Haha This is great pot calling the kettle black man.  Like who cares how anyone else plays defense. Some people like switching it up, some people have been playing zone all damn year because you had to and are tired of it and with some of the newer cards that have come out it’s actually made man a possibility. Bro has an opinion that he’s tryna come across as fact And its absolutely laughable

I 1000% have to agree with this lmao. Running man mixed in with zone is fine, but running ONLY man and having all your abilities set to man coverage is just basically admitting you don't know how to play defense and want the game to do it all for you. Can't stand people who only run man. Shit is so corny

If you think doing less than half of the House Rules wins required to get a limited-time card, which requires 80 wins, is an argument, then you need to get your head checked.
