Anyone running a Legends TT?

The Ravens TT is fine I guess... but I think the 49ers TT is a bit better.  I suppose all TT's are pretty much the same these days.  I play a lot of 3-4 Odd to stop the run and Willis/Warner is a better combo than Roquan/Queen.  I also miss Moss as my WR1.  I'm still having fun running the ball with three Vanguard TE's clearing huge paths down the field... but I did swap out Jelani Woods for Kittle who has MUCH better run blocking stats.

As for that play... I have run the Saints offense for 5 years now but haven't spent much time in Flex Y Off Wk... not sure if that route is glitched or not but I'll have to remember it the next time I face C2Man.  Maybe the TEs are faster now and doing a better job distracting the Safety on that side?  The "B" route itself looks like it would beat the man CB down the sideline (assuming he's outside the numbers and has Short Out Elite) as I use similar routes from other formations for that very purpose...

I just finally parted with Randy Moss, didn't think i'd ever upgrade him, but decided to use a "cheat" card with Collin Johnson as new WR1 and zero regrets.  He's absolutely incredible.  So my new situation is; Collin Johnson (SIE + SOE), Demaryius Thomas (Slot with Route Tech + SIE for 1AP), Calvin Johnson (SOE).

Thanks for the feedback on Verticals situation, i'm gonna tinker with it this evening if i can make some time.  In the future i'll try to "Back off" not sure what else i can do to defend against that.

I'm rocking with 9/9 Raiders TT REMIX.  i also have 3/3 Rams 3/3 Saints . I figured I already had Dickerson and Carr. might as well get the rest

How's that Ravens squad treating you?  Sorry to see you go, the Niners TT has been an absolute blast, especially after TT Remix promo dropped.  Sadly i'm still (forever) stuck at 8/9, but this is home for me, as a lifelong 49er fanboi.

Regarding the other folks discussing Lester Hayes -- he's been wonderful at CB1 opposite Anquan Boldin, although just within the past few days, i've started to get really burned down the sidelines, typically something liek Four Verticals the "B" receiver tends to get 3-4 steps ahead of my best defenders and not sure what adjustments i should be making, other than "Back Off."  I'm NOT pressing, so it's not an issue of SOE ability causing me to get cooked.  This happens after i've "Guessed Pass" and it's happened multiple times.  Is this a known / buggy route, or what am i missing here?  Lester got burned multiple times and Joey Porter Jr. (playing OOP at SS) in Cover 2 Man couldn't manage to provide any over the top deep help, two dudes just watched him run away from them and ultimately catch multiple long TDs.  Is it me being terrible, or something else entirely?  Thanks for any insight.

I think Shading Overtop would solve your issue.. Even if you are running zone

I had a legends TT and it was super underwhelming  so I sold it off and went back to packers TT when TTR came out

Packers TT rise up u have a 99 ovr one I assume?

I have a 98 only cuz I'm waiting for the free punter and kicker

Thank you for chiming in and the feedback.  After getting burned so bad initially, i did start shading Overtop -- i thought perhaps it was due to the fact that i also had been "Shading Inside" -- it's a habit in trips or any type of spread formations.  I think i also had Match enabled in coaching adjustments at the time.  I'll need to see if it continues happening, but i encountered it twice in two games, same/similar play, some type of Verticals.

No HB motion or overload to one side which tends to bug out Match coverage, but also shouldn't matter that much as i'm exclusively running Man defense, either Cover 0 or Cover 2 Man LB Blitz.  Appreciate you helping me out here with the pro-tips.  I could have spaced on it, or maybe my adjustments bugged out or somehow i didn't get it locked in before the ball was snapped.

I know so many times adjustments don't register and your opponent has an easy TD.. It happens to me alot on X-Box, I would say too much to be honest.  YOu have to hit the buttons so hard it is miserable.  Even when you watch the best players on Twitch play, it literally sounds like a machine gun how hard they press the buttons to make sure it registers the adjustments.    PS:  I am not a pro but thanks lol

Towards the beginning of the year I ran a legends theme team and then in January I slowly transitioned to a ravens tt but for a good month or so I was just running a random team with half ravens and just half current/younger players

got bored of my legends TT and the theme team remix promo juiced most theme teams so im running a patriots TT with only fillers where we absolutely need them. It isn't a strict TT either , i do have the "all team chem" cards if they are better than the actual strict card that would be in that spot

I had one for awhile and then switched over to my 49ers. The thing I dislike about legend theme teams is you have alot fewer slots available for non theme team players than you do running a regular theme team. With the Team diamonds,+5 team chem on the strategy card and all the UL my 49ers have gotten I much prefer a 49ers TT over a legends one.

I don’t run a legends TT, but when I get a guy that gets legends Chem, I just throw it on them for fun. Like guys like Calvin and Gronk. Now I’m at 25/40 on it and just have it for boosting the legend Chem‘d players

Guess pass and shade over top are usually the 2 adjustments that fix that, but also sometimes the game is just glitchy and 25-30 yards down the field they will bump each other and the receiver will gain seperation that way. I stopped running man a long time ago and that seemed to fix that issue for the most part. Also certain plays have fade routes that just beat man coverage.

Thanks, must have been a pure man beater, i dunno.  I noticed it twice in two games, i thought there's no way i can get caught USERing a deep fade route, that'll leave the rest of the field open -- i'm sure it'll be fine, i've got my Lester Hayes streaking down the sideline and Joey Porter Jr. over top as deep Safety help, heh.  DOH.  Neither did anything to help, they just watched the receiver(s) run away and catch the ball for huge gain.

Hayes is probably the best legends CB in the game currently

Deion and Sherman are better and now Chris Mccalister.

How? He gets auto on UC. 

Hayes, JP JR, CM are the top 3 right now
