In past Madden games, we've had an option where you pull up your pre snap defensive settings, select the appropriate icon,
and automatically have deep safety help on said receiver. With all of these fast WR's and guys opting to simply heave the
ball down field every play hoping to Moss your DB... This has to come back!
Not having it forces you to scour auctions for 6'4 cornerbacks. Plus it makes the game lack authenticity because the outcomes become
seemingly more unreal as guys grab higher overall rated players. Furthermore, it forces you to spend big coins on the latest and greatest because simply put, your 2 day old 94 DB has no chance in a one on one situation with the new hotness (insert recently dropped 96 overall WR). It takes the fun out of the game IMO.
Lastly, Madden used to have plays that allowed you to double teams guys from your play call. You lost over the top coverage on other players, but you
gained a legit double team on lets say, 99 speed Cheetah. You didn't feel so hopeless when you saw him line up. But guess what, this is such a basic defensive strategy!!! That's
like playing 2K and you can't double LeBron every play to get the ball out of his hands. Does that guarantee that he won't drop a 50 burger on you? No. Does it negate you
from bringing a pencil to a slingshot fight? Absolutely!!
