      Looking at what formation they are using are very important, if he has 3 WRs out and he is constantly no huddling it and man isn’t working, I’ll zone it, if he keeps running I’ll blitz . also user control is very important I’ll usually cover the best WR out there cause the computer keeps getting beat or using a safety helps a lot to.

      Isn't that what it's meant to do? The defense is aligned in a "base" way to disguise the actual zones they're covering. So yeah I guess it depend son what you're running, some defensive shells are going to be more distorted than others. I'm gonna experiment a bit

      In the same way that I naturally understand various formations and systems in real football (soccer), I don't in American Football. Because I didn't grow up watching it.
      What I'm looking for is a 'start to...now', explanation of defensive strategies. Starting from the fundamentals, and building up to how the 49ers use the 9 wide. (I know the terms, but I don't understand the deepness).

Curl clouds are meant to cover short passes stuff like that, just the basics. Trust me, from personal experience it’s easier to learn the basics of the game of football before you learn the controls

    The difference between Quarters and Palms is who is responsible for #2 to the Flats
    QUARTERS = OLB/SS has #2 to the Flats
    PALMS = CB has #2 to the flats
    Not sure if the designers of the game know this but check it out.
    Also in Quarters if #2 is not Vertical (deep route) he should rob the post/curl/dig of #1
    Some coaches have the FS or High Safety if you will rob #1 in both Coverages when #2 is not Vertical.
    The weakness in both Coverages is the deep out, comeback by #1
    Also!!
    Palms and Quarters are not something you want to run against Trips Sets
    I would bet money that in Madden if you call Palms or Quarters it will be a full field coverage. I would like to know how the defense handle the single receiver in the weak side of 21 personnel formations
    Palms and Quarters are typically played against Twins and TE/Flanker sets
    Quarters vs TE/Flanker
    Palms vs Twins
    You might not want to play Palms vs TE/Flanker because if the offense runs a Vert with #1 and a short out or quick out by #2 your High Safety will NEVER get over the Top of that Vert by #1

    Good tutorial for beginners.
    I haven't played 20 yet, and I'm aware some things have changed but you can get away w/ 4-3, 3-4, 46 etc even with 3+ wideouts on the field of your in a zone and disguse it with base align. That may have changed though considering the linebackers aren't superhuman jumpers anymore.
    The main thing I tell ppl when I'm trying to teach them is to figure out what they are trying to do, find the hard counter(s), and try to notice which sets they come out in to accomplish what they are trying to do and let them make the mistakes.
    Most ppl aren't going to be able to make the adjustments necessary because they are so used to things working that when they don't, they don't have backup plans.

    Hey, something I started toying around with: I took a page out of Dennis Allen's playbook and started dropping my DT into the LB's coverage and blitzing the LB. As long as you user the DT, it works pretty well. Especially online because the other player typically gets confused and has no clue what's going on. (And neither does his OL. 😂) Just something I thought I'd throw out there for you to try.

    u can play hard flats in cover 2. u just have to play your corners 10 yards off....especially on the wide side of the field
    if you press them, 20 yard gain easy

    Question!!! How do you get your Corners to align with inside leverage on the #1??

    • @dennismurphy3571
      @dennismurphy3571 5 років тому

      Cover 2 is dogshit vs the run with Corners outside of #1 because they are your force defenders. Outside leverage is fine on passing downs
      Highschool you can prolllllllly get away with it because receivers more likely not very good at blocking a man crossing his face
      The Madden designers should want to know this shit tbh

    • @Randymarsh402
      @Randymarsh402 5 років тому

      When you are at the play selection menu, it will say to the bottom right or left what personnel they have on the field. I think it gives you like 8-10 seconds to pick a play after that's chosen.
      It'll say like 3 WR | 1 TE | 1 RB

    Reading a offense or defense is tough unless madden is your life and your putting countless hours in... Practice! Learn the D pad and adjustments at line of scrimmage. I just started playing again after a very long layoff lol “kids” but long story short, thank you for these tips!

    How do you finally fix the motion of the players to make the motion much smoother just to ruin it by making defense literally useless. If you don’t get a sack, everyone stands still and acts like nobody is on the field.

    And remember folks
    These are just adjustments. Whether you have to adjust or not is all up to you reading the offense and determining what kind of offense they may be running. The defensive play starts it all.
    Just thought I might add thatz

    Genuine question: What is , if there are any, advantage of NOT base aligning your defense? like, why don't the defense automatically base align instead of having to do it? so to reiterate, what are the downside of always base aligning your defense?

    • @EricRayweather
      @EricRayweather  5 років тому +1

      Well for one, base aligning isn't an actual football thing. It only exists in Madden to help better defend compressed sets. Base Aligning can make you weaker in the run game at times, or weak against bubble screens (especially this year with the RPO bubble screens). More times than not, it's safe to Base Align though.

    Regarding "matching personnel". What if they don't pick until late and you are unable to base your decision on that ? What is considered the best all-round formation ? Would it just be a case of guessing what your opponent would do?
