EricRayweather hey man great vid. Will u PLEASE for the love of god just comment on how to stop posts using zone D! I shade inside when i know a post is coming but they still give it up. I get torched over the middle on the reg
Word of advice for those interested in a man scheme Always shade the CB inside for the outside WR. Example... if the left side receiver is running an out/c route, shade him to his right. I know it doesnt make since to give up outside leverage but again, another weird Madden mechanic. If you shade them outside to stop an out/c route they get burned for some reason. No shading necessary for slot receivers or tight ends, only outside guys. Also get comfortable usering the saftey. The cpu plays that hook zone really well and will cover the middle just fine. Watch your CB's on the outside and if one guy gets beat on release to a route, he should be your first priority to assist.
As usual, great video! Can you do one on Nickel 3-3-5 Odd LB Cross Show 2? I noticed Skimbo and Kiv running this D and would like to learn the set up, thanks.
You’re vids have actually helped me lab way better than before. I never really put any thoughts into usering LBs until I continuously labbed what you taught me. Thanks to guys like you who actually tell people like me who really want to get better at the game to practice as much as you can. I totally appreciate guys like you 💯💯💯
Ayyye let's go Eric!!! I told you a man scheme is viable if built around it. I've been locking cats down. If you individually shade properly you can run man half the game and have success(as I do).
You're the man. Thank you for all your videos they have really helped. I'm average. I have done good and some bad games. By no means am I good I just play for the fun of it but I've only started taking it more serious. And your videos have definitely I proved my skill. Thanks man
Thank you for the tips. Since I've been watching your channel, my online rank has increased rapidly. I just broke the Top 100. I am currently ranked #97 on Xbox 1. I owe it all to you.
U can manual press. U just have to shift coverage to the outside. I believe when u manual press, coverage is shifted inside to take away anything towards the middle of the field but he will get beat deep
Been watching you since the end of last year and you are my go to youtuber tips are legit my Madden game has elevated. And side note I swear I thought you were black....you invited to our cookouts fam ✊
Yo Eric can you make a video about shading lines offensively and defensively. I didn't notice until yesterday I slid my o line on run plays and it seems to help me because I can never run the ball even when I have those "glitchly" runs u make vids of..
I’ve been using that cover 4 cross man with the safety’s while dropping OOP Landon Collins ( @mlb) deep down the middle. Stops them TE drags effectively. Thnx for your vidz bro!! 👍🏻

I’ve got Jamal Adams in my CFM and he has 99 zone after multiple pro bowls and 98 play rec. Think I’m going to sprinkle this play in to get him in that 3 rec zone. Should be killer.
EricRayweather only downside is my corners have bad man coverage (70-75) so might need to bring a decent one in. Have Casey Hayward on one side I guess.

Lit Panda are you on Xbox? If so what are the controls to making the adjustments you are talking about
Giani Youngblood Y, then A, select the receiver by pressing their button and then flick the right stick the direction you want to shade them.
So shade outside receivers inside instead of outside?
Jamien Weissinger yes
Lit Panda what’s the controls on ps4
Thanks for making these very simple videos to help us play Madden better
As usual, great video! Can you do one on Nickel 3-3-5 Odd LB Cross Show 2? I noticed Skimbo and Kiv running this D and would like to learn the set up, thanks.
Nice my guy and keep up the good work!
Thank you!
Good video Eric. I can mixed it up with different plays to throw my opponents off.

Can have video showing how to stop slant routes
Great video!!!

John Childs so he wasn't invited to your cookouts if he was black?
King Remembered In Time with his Madden skill in general he gets the spot cause we do tourneys anyways but his voice threw me off
John Childs but If he was black and didn't have skill would he still be invited
King Remembered In Time you trying to nit pick Eric don't seem like a bad person he still would be invited
Save me some ribs!
Great vid, going to practice this for my Wildcard game today in 32 player CFM.
Question: Should I be upgrading Linebackers Zone Coverage?
Man. Zone is key for defense on madden.
What about a 2 man under or a cover one regular then send them into press? Like y adjust press? That work?

Thanks for giving me advice on putting my mlb in a deep blue really appreciate it 🤜🤛
+Angel DeJesus no problem buddy
Can u make a vid on which zone blitz’s r the best?
Nice Work...
+GamExec thank you
Need to know how do you Shade on PS4?
What's the best defensive book for MUT? I'm using pats for offensive and defense
Pats, Jags, Benagals, Colts, Ravens
Why do you press when the dbs are already in press coverage?
Watching your vidz has me competing effectively with an 86 overall team. Thnx.
+Josh M. Glad I could help bro
With so much help inside, should you shade your defenders outside?
armdchair it's another weird Madden mechanic but no. Always shade the CB inside for the outside WR. Example... if the left side receiver is running an out route, shade him to his right. I know it doesnt make since to give up outside leverage but again, another dumb madden mechanic. If you shade them outside to stop an out/c route they get burned for some reason.
Thanks, I appreciate it. Madden is often very different from real-life football.
I’ve got Jamal Adams in my CFM and he has 99 zone after multiple pro bowls and 98 play rec. Think I’m going to sprinkle this play in to get him in that 3 rec zone. Should be killer.
Should work nicely.
EricRayweather only downside is my corners have bad man coverage (70-75) so might need to bring a decent one in. Have Casey Hayward on one side I guess.
What’s the Best Team and schemes to play whit in Regs🤔
I also hate that “it’s really glitchy” is considered a good thing, no offense
That flat zone is useless if that RB hits the other flat. Even that man on the RB is useless if the RB runs to the other flat.
If I shade overtop why does every corner get beat 10/10 time
Press the whole secondary? Triangle left stick down?
yes
I feel like it takes my safeties too shallow. No?
what playbook is that?
+Andrew Almendarez jags
I find using outside shade helps to slow inside routes better.
Peter A Yep...man align and outside shade
Why not cover 2? Less likely to get beat over the top that way, no?
You have ppl to user in cover one in cover 2 you user w prolly be manned up against rb
What about cover 2 Man?

Still pumping out the award winners!
All day everyday.
show an actual user vs cpu gameplay with your strategy
Not in madden 14 or 15 it was great if u had fire corners
🔥 🔥 🔥
Why would it matter whether or not the play has press in the title if you can just manually do it
+Devron Taylor they play tighter coverage in press plays. Don't know why but they do.
These tips make so many assumptions of the opponent, smart players will adjust. so stop saying they will always do this with this formation......
