@@williewinder6146 none at all bro you can run them if this is getting torched and you have to switch formations which i suggest doing anyways if you happen to get the sack and it’s 2nd and 20 3rd and 20 etc immediately get into a nice pass defense they need yards that would be an ideal time to run you zone drops
Can't you save a step by having your defense set to base on the zone drop adjustment screen. Or does coming out normal then base aligning do some different?
i started using the giants defensive playbook basically when i first started playing madden 22 but found out that blitzing and then pass commiting is absurdly good especially with a qb contain on and a good user
My struggles in Madden was I use to play too much coverage defense. The moment I started applying blitz schemes and combining coverage/blitz concepts, I started to see progress. Slot corner blitzes is my go-to move
Its always been about creating pressure. Thats alot of things to do before the snap. Hurry up offense will help beat that defense. But w.e works for people. I personally do alot of d-lime shifts with all my blitzs. Even on coverage plays. You cant always come out in the same look.. good content!!
Bro your vids are so helpful my past 25 photos on my phone is screenshots from your vids and I just wanted to let you know that you are doing an amazing job, you are one of the few youtubers I can honestly say that about not just say it to be nice.
At first I could never beat this blitz. It almost made madden unplayable for me. Knowing how to beat it is great and even helps me run effective defenses now because I know what guys are gonna do to counter it. Great video
Appreciate it Nick! It really is the best blitz in Madden 22 in my opinion, and I agree 100% that understanding it can help improve your effectiveness running any scheme!
@@nickhenrichsen4483 Could you share how to counter this? Even after watching the video, I'm not sure what to do if I don't have escape artist on. Seems like max protect still wouldn't work because the center gets tricked into doing nothing so the blocking assignments get screwed up.
@@maverickx301 run against it since the defense will get the weak box debuff from the pass commit. Force them to respect the run and they'll either adjust and you'll get more time in the pocket or they won't and you'll get free yards on the ground
This is what I used to call cheeseball, horseshit defense when I used to play Madden. It’s like finding a play where the DT just walks through the line completely untouched every play and the other player stands no chance. If it doesn’t look like an actual defense you see on TV on Sundays…I call Horse Shit
Facts all Madden has become is unrealistic football fill with a bunch of animations and people abusing certain glitches & glitch plays in the game that Madden refuses to fix
@@SniperBo5S it's literally the exact same concept of what you do with your user in this blitz. The Dolphins had two guys engage the o-lineman in front of them and then back off, plus a guy that was locked on the running back (so he blitzes if the RB blocks, follows him if the RB goes out). It's the exact same concept, but in Madden you can only have one player engage & back off (rather than two for the Dolphins) since you only have one user
Maddens been ruined for years. Not only the game itself but the player base. Everybody runs the same cheesey ass blitz play you see in the video. Everybody runs the same cheesey ass offensive plays. Madden is one of the most boring games you could ever buy for $70
Yeah edge threat elite is the best ability for edge rusher. That is why that Patrick Kerney is great in ultimate team because he gets Edge Threat Elite for 2 Ap
I’ve used this formation since the patriots invented to beat the rams in the Super Bowl. I run Sam will blitz basically every play and user the linebacker but I call it option defense. If I think I can get the sack with the linebacker then I go for it but if I can’t I cover the RB

Awesome video! What strategy cards would you recommend to use on the defense? I have The Island Rare Strat card and run stuff rare card, but I read that in the zone card for DBs is way better!
Hey Joel! I think by far the most important strat cards on defense are the ones that give +1 SPD to all of your DBs, so I have two "In The Zone" strat cards. It's important to make sure it's two unique "In The Zone" strat cards though, meaning the 4th attribute listed is different on each card. So in my case one card gives +PUR in the 4th spot and the other gives +TAK there, but most importantly they both give +SPD in the 5th spot. It's important to get unique cards because identical cards won't stack!
I have two questions about this defensive blitz scheme: 1) Do you recommend base aligning, even when playing man defense? 2) Besides the Seahawks, are there any other teams in regs that you recommend using this defense with?
Dont base align in man unless you have zones with it and you could use the cards or vikes or niners all three teams have solid linebackers with lurker or decent speed lbs’s same With Carolina
@@RickyNoooo Thanks for the tips! For the man defense and base align tip, I shouldn't base align if the only zones that I have are my two safeties in deep blue zones, right?
How do you adjust both defensive ends into flats ?, you mention it but don’t say how, can you give detailed controls. Are you just hitting way and then picking each DE seperately, that would take way to long after all these adjustments. And thanks for the bud👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
This is not a every down defense and if you are running it every down you have to put you DE in different assignments depending on how he is attacking you
Thx for awsome Videos. I have one question to all goid madden gamer. When you use your MLB: 1. Do you stay and cover only the zone ? 2. Men coverage, what is more important, to cover the TE or HB? To usee MLB is my biggest problem. I'm very thankfull fir every help.
Broooooooo I had NO IDEA that if you put your edge rushers in contains that the edge threat ability doesn’t work 🤦🏼♂️ Really glad I saw this. Will make a huge difference!!!
Quarter 1-3-7 db blitz when opponent is in shotgun. Take left cb on the outside blitz way outside the tackle and then pursue QB. CB’s are a lot faster than LB. And also they cover flats faster if ball dumped over there heads. But whatever
Just started using this defense currently I’m 2-0 it’s easy to adjust because I run it with a mix of other defenses nickel 3-4 odd etc it works as advertised 😤💪🏾 Edit: I’ve been absolutely Destroying people😭
I challenge you to stop the run using the Eagles. I guarantee you can't. The D-Line never block sheds to make tackles for losses, LBs tend to fall, and the secondary tends to run right at a blocker. I'm ranked 9th, and I tried every formation. Every single opponent in H2H has MUT 100 ovr - latch on-can't block shed blocking.
Copying my response to another user: It's a roster glitch that takes WAY too long to explain, but basically it's: In your MUT lineup screen have one ROLB and one LOLB at MLB and no backup MLBs. Then have one LE at LOLB and one RE at ROLB and no backup OLBs anywhere, even in specialists. Then in game you pause, go to your depth chart and auto re-order. The game will put the highest overall player on your team at MLB. You have to be careful though, because that includes offensive players!

I found some issues with this play tho, sometimes my OLB's just stand there unguarded in pause mode(using QB contain as you had mentioned being glitchy), just moving their legs up and down, they don't rush in to the QB all the time
Your edge rushers have low pass rush, the best pass rushers are Lawrence Taylor, Chandler Jones, Charles Haley or Demarcus Ware. They have to be at their original positions, this prevents what you described from happening, if you have LEs or REs rushing where OLBs are supposed to be they may dumb out in QB contains.
@@RatsKingdom ...I use LT & Chandler Jones, never had this issue, but when I use t put Reggie White or Javon Kearse on the edge they would sometimes stay frozen on contains.
When I don't use the contain then they will be fine, only when I use contain which is also odd because when I first used this method with the same players, it was actually working with contain but then all a sudden it changed, but I mean i have adapted well enough with it either way, I won a Super Bowl in Legends 1st time using this defense
to all my cfm players..... to get a safety at mlb in this formation follow these steps: 1. change your defensive playbook to one that has the 4-3 even 6-1 in it (the playbook you will be using) 2. change the safety you want to user position to mlb 3. sub him in at mlb under the formation subs section in manage staff 4. change him back to safety (he will still be subbed in at lb in 4-3 even 6-1 and now he gets the db animations instead of linebacker ones) thank me later

How tf did that QB get the edge there late in the video? In franchise, I've always got a 99 speed QB constantly getting hawked from behind by d linemen
The other abilities vary by individual, I just went over the ESSENTIAL abilities in the video. I use acrobat on my user, an inside stuff on the d-line, acros and deep out zone ko's on my safeties, and flat zone ko's on my CBs
Could someone help me with this? Whenever I run the play, there is always no one covering the receivers. The blitz isn’t working because the QB always is able to roll out. I know I am doing all of the adjustments correctly, so I just don’t see what could be going wrong. Please can someone help me with this

Yep, you can base align in coaching adjustments!

I'd pick this defense apart with paper cut underneath throws. Every clip there's 1 or more people WIDE TF open underneath. Short Quick passes they have no shot
I figured out i defensive scheme I play literally only zone coverage like cover 2,3,6 in 4 3 and alignment and then but my dts slanted outside and contain my de and it’s amazing against the run and deep pass
can you sub in a safety at the user position bcus it doesn’t show any of my safeties it only shows my MLB’s and in other formations i could change it but for some reason not this one and i’m wondering why that is? Thanks

Good vid I’ve been running this blitz for a while now I noticed that you don’t really want to run it every play as people will catch on. I normally run it when I need pressure or to stop the run cause it helps in the run game a lot
@@yrgminion5773 me either but i beat a lot of op teams with the Seahawks their underrated and you can run many schemes with them out of patriots play book
SpruceGoose, didn't I beat you on Madden 21 on PC last year? Came back from down 21, I was the Browns, you were the Bucs. I think that was you. Good to see you doing big things!
Whoever you have as your edge rushers, those are the guys to put under pressure on. Typically it will be the OLBs unless you're shuffling people around to different positions
does anyone know why when i run this and come out in a blitz and do the adjustments, corners man up to receivers on opposite sides and leave a man uncovered?
Hey how do you stop the fade out of this? it worked well for me until someone started running a fade and throwing it quick he had lamar and could move around a little not much though
@@cl-sk3wq double tap y or triangle and choose the corner back that is covering the receiver running the fade. Then flick the right stick to the right. An outside quarter will match with that receiver but won’t get beat over the top most times unless your corner has bad coverage. Hope that explains it.

For the guys on the inside it can help in case your opponent blocks seven, and it of course can't hurt to have high PMV and FMV on the edge guys, but the top priority is speed
Why not just run a full LB blitz so you dont need to make the LB audible, and the show blitz audible? Or run a play that HAS qb contain already and cut that out too? This isnt verry effective time wise here.

Copying my response to another user: It's a roster glitch that takes WAY too long to explain, but basically it's: In your MUT lineup screen have one ROLB and one LOLB at MLB and no backup MLBs. Then have one LE at LOLB and one RE at ROLB and no backup OLBs anywhere, even in specialists. Then in game you pause, go to your depth chart and auto re-order. The game will put the highest overall player on your team at MLB. You have to be careful though, because that includes offensive players!
I found some issues with this play tho, sometimes my OLB's just stand there unguarded in pause mode(using QB contain as you had mentioned being glitchy), just moving their legs up and down, they don't rush in to the QB all the time
Your edge rushers have low pass rush, the best pass rushers are Lawrence Taylor, Chandler Jones, Charles Haley or Demarcus Ware.
They have to be at their original positions, this prevents what you described from happening, if you have LEs or REs rushing where OLBs are supposed to be they may dumb out in QB contains.
@@mcluvin28x nahh, I have Haley on the left side and he does the pause, I don't use subs
@@RatsKingdom ...I use LT & Chandler Jones, never had this issue, but when I use t put Reggie White or Javon Kearse on the edge they would sometimes stay frozen on contains.
When I don't use the contain then they will be fine, only when I use contain which is also odd because when I first used this method with the same players, it was actually working with contain but then all a sudden it changed, but I mean i have adapted well enough with it either way, I won a Super Bowl in Legends 1st time using this defense
That’s because you’re not tapping the center
to all my cfm players..... to get a safety at mlb in this formation follow these steps:
1. change your defensive playbook to one that has the 4-3 even 6-1 in it (the playbook you will be using)
2. change the safety you want to user position to mlb
3. sub him in at mlb under the formation subs section in manage staff
4. change him back to safety (he will still be subbed in at lb in 4-3 even 6-1 and now he gets the db animations instead of linebacker ones)
thank me later
how do i change safety position to mlb in mut
Thank you I have been wondering this for along time
Thanks bro 😎
How do u put safety at linebacker in 61 if it’s not a nickel package?

keep your TE in as a blocker and run short routes to beat these blitzes.
And therein lies the number one issue with madden - pre snap adjustments shouldn't be the basis for "skill gap"
How tf did that QB get the edge there late in the video? In franchise, I've always got a 99 speed QB constantly getting hawked from behind by d linemen
Where do you use the rest of your abilities? Do you acrobat your secondary or do you use the leftover ap on your dline?
The other abilities vary by individual, I just went over the ESSENTIAL abilities in the video. I use acrobat on my user, an inside stuff on the d-line, acros and deep out zone ko's on my safeties, and flat zone ko's on my CBs
@@SpruceGooseTV
Ok thanks man. I love your channel by the way! Great stuff
Nice! Anyway we can see the Superbowl on your 2nd channel?
Maybe ;)
Can you set coaching adjustments to Base instead of base aligning every play?
Yep! But remember it'll apply to all formations, so if you run any other formation then you'll have to turn it off.
@@SpruceGooseTV cool! I bought a membership. Will incorporate Nickel Normal into my game plan as well. Can’t wait for you to upload more on Even 61.
@@NincompoopOreilly appreciate it man! The plan is to have the first wave of 43 Even 6-1 content out tomorrow!
@@SpruceGooseTV can’t wait in my Bart Scott voice
Dumb question, but when you hit Y or triangle is it better to repeatedly tap the button or just hold it down?
quick question how were you usering kam chancellor when you can’t sub him in
Could someone help me with this? Whenever I run the play, there is always no one covering the receivers. The blitz isn’t working because the QB always is able to roll out. I know I am doing all of the adjustments correctly, so I just don’t see what could be going wrong. Please can someone help me with this
late to the party but how are you getting kam chancellor at mlb in this formation
I found a glitched play yesterday if there’s a way I can send it to you
Hop in my Discord and DM me there!
Had to download it but I sent it to you over there.
Last time I played Madden competitively was Madden 97. I can't believe it's already 2022.
great video. Just one question. What postion is your user?
Hey how did u get kam to linebacker? I can’t sub safeties into that position
Olb at mlb and de at olb
@@ceez9651 can you elaborate?

@@SpruceGooseTV i have to put my lolb who I put at mlb 2 at sub lb and rre and rle also
Couple questions….
Can I go to coaching adjustment and turn base alignment on to skip that step?
Is there a way to sub in a safety for your user in this package?
Do you use any zone drops for your cbs?
Thanks in advance
1. i dont think so
2. nah
3 dk
Yep, you can base align in coaching adjustments!
For zone drops, I mostly play default unless there's a particular route I need to cover (like flats at 20 to guard a corner route)
As for safety at MLB, the full breakdown is in the ebook on my website, but essentially in your MUT lineup screen put one ROLB and one LOLB at MLB and no backup MLBs.

@@SpruceGooseTV can u sub the safety at mlb in a cfm or no
Can I ask what playbook are you using ?
Who should you run the edge threat elites on. I think I’m going to use 2. Also I was going to do deep route ko cuz I think I’m going to run man. Sound like a good idea?
How does this blitz hold up against the run?
At times it can be weak vs outside runs, but if you get your user out there then you should be fine
How is kam in your middle linebacker spot it won't let me put him there

How did you get kam chancellor as your MLB in 6-1
Awesome stuff as always spruce!
Why doesn’t the QB run up the middle every time? Literally massive holes for easy bursts.
This is why I subscribed. Great stuff.
Abilities is what I’m gonna work on in my own scheme. The fact I wallop qb contain less if it means more pressure
I can’t put my Sub LB when in 6-1

I'd pick this defense apart with paper cut underneath throws. Every clip there's 1 or more people WIDE TF open underneath. Short Quick passes they have no shot
How are you getting a safety at mlb in this formation?
Spruce is the Skunk Works of madden UA-camrs
When you're in shotgun and run back 10 yards right after the snap doesn't help. You're welcome.
Do you change your flat and hook zones like 25yard and 5 yards?
I figured out i defensive scheme I play literally only zone coverage like cover 2,3,6 in 4 3 and alignment and then but my dts slanted outside and contain my de and it’s amazing against the run and deep pass
Nice!!
It took a while to get the muscle memory down but this is so broken
can you sub in a safety at the user position bcus it doesn’t show any of my safeties it only shows my MLB’s and in other formations i could change it but for some reason not this one and i’m wondering why that is? Thanks
I'd start eating that up all day with either a 2TE set or 4WR set and hit some double outs...
Man you are the best! Great content always strive for more
Thank you man!!
I love applying pressure and getting a loss of ten yards or more on the opposing team.
Same!!

Does it work for regular H2H games?
Good vid I’ve been running this blitz for a while now I noticed that you don’t really want to run it every play as people will catch on. I normally run it when I need pressure or to stop the run cause it helps in the run game a lot
Who do u user when running this I ran it and get sacks like every time but my sub lb aren’t out there and I have to user a slow ass mlb
@@yrgminion5773 then use a different team like the Seahawks for this scheme
@@DripVio nahh I’m chillin I don’t use this defense no more and I’m not a Seahawks fan
@@yrgminion5773 me either but i beat a lot of op teams with the Seahawks their underrated and you can run many schemes with them out of patriots play book
SpruceGoose, didn't I beat you on Madden 21 on PC last year? Came back from down 21, I was the Browns, you were the Bucs. I think that was you. Good to see you doing big things!
What's up man! Lmao if it was Madden 20 then it's possible! For Madden 21 I was on Xbox the whole time
@@SpruceGooseTV Damn, has it been two years?? Congrats on being able to quit your job and do this full time. 💯💯
Glad to see your channel keep growing Goose! Love all the informative videos brotha.
Appreciate it man!!
you should play in DML cfm
Do you put under pressure on olb or Re and le
Whoever you have as your edge rushers, those are the guys to put under pressure on. Typically it will be the OLBs unless you're shuffling people around to different positions
does anyone know why when i run this and come out in a blitz and do the adjustments, corners man up to receivers on opposite sides and leave a man uncovered?
Hey how do you stop the fade out of this? it worked well for me until someone started running a fade and throwing it quick he had lamar and could move around a little not much though
Outside quarter
@@aaronsession7027 what does that mean and how do you do it
@@cl-sk3wq double tap y or triangle and choose the corner back that is covering the receiver running the fade. Then flick the right stick to the right. An outside quarter will match with that receiver but won’t get beat over the top most times unless your corner has bad coverage. Hope that explains it.
@@aaronsession7027 Thank You
Thank you so much this is so overpowerd
For sure man!
Goat for this
Can you move your safety down as a linebacker
You can in MUT with a roster glitch. The full breakdown is in the ebook on my website, but essentially in your MUT lineup screen put one ROLB and one LOLB at MLB and no backup MLBs. Then put one LE at LOLB and one RE at ROLB and no backup OLBs anywhere, even in specialists. Then in game you pause, go to your depth chart and auto re-order. The game will put the highest overall player on your team at MLB. You have to be careful though, because that includes offensive players!
Does it work for regular h2h?
does power move & finesse move matter in this situation?
For the guys on the inside it can help in case your opponent blocks seven, and it of course can't hurt to have high PMV and FMV on the edge guys, but the top priority is speed
Can you make a short of putting the Ss or fs ad Mlb
Why not just run a full LB blitz so you dont need to make the LB audible, and the show blitz audible? Or run a play that HAS qb contain already and cut that out too? This isnt verry effective time wise here.
