I haven't played in a while but that is exactly how you can dominate in the running game. Using the right runs against particular fronts. With all of the audibles you can check into with Madden, you actually are awarded more opportunities at exploiting defensive fronts as opposed to live . . . at least in my opinion.

Contrary to popular belief I believe cover 2 guards that quote well in theory. As long as the safety takes the streak the dig can be passed off along the underneath zones that will sit at around 10 or yards back. Now if it’s a 25 yard dig then yeah, otherwise it can be guarded

@@kghostthegreat the middle read linebacker is responsible for carrying vertical routes up the seam until he passes it off to the safety, the dig will be coming in the vacant window while there is a drag route coming across the field to put a high low stretch on the underneath defenders. The safety has to respect the vertically of the dig so he would have to split the offensive players, making the middle lb have to choose between being aggressive on the dig in which case the throw the seam route is open, if he respects the seam and passes it off to the safety it's a high low stretch underneath

@@kghostthegreat normally the dig routes cut at about 15-20 yards, so the hook defenders at naturally at a disadvantage and if they commit underneath it's an even bigger window

@@kghostthegreat ultimately it's a universal coverage beater with routes that work against man and zone. I implement it all of the time because it's such a good concept

Dagger is pretty nasty. 1 con to it though is it takes a little time to develop. Might be an issue running it against a ferocious pass rushing front. Cover 1 with a rat in the hole may fair pretty well. You are right though - mastering the concept can be deadly for an offense.

There are so many bro. You should look up - match quarters STEAL - on google. Think about the offensive concept -FLOOD-. Where you try to flood the defense with routes on 3 different levels. . . . overloading the defense. Well -STEAL- coverage is a way the defense can flood the offense . . . which is a very cool concept. Essentially , you are stealing the backside safety and using him for the front side. He reads the number 2 frontside for a vertical route inside and cuts the route. It was designed to counter Air Raid concepts like Y Cross and Y corner. The closest you can get to that coverage in madden is playing cover 9 with a few adjustments. I was going to drop more stuff on that this year . . . but I had to let it go due to the amount of time it was taking away from my daily tasks. There are so many though. There is a coverage titled -READ- that I recently read about as well. The well runs deep with double high safety coverages. You could design your own by thinking about rules you can implement to solve a problem the defense is presenting you. Then draw up route combinations an offense throws at you while utilizing the rules you've made up and see how it would interact. Obviously - - - you can't be too creative in Madden . . . but I hope you see what I'm saying. 1 - Mod Quarters {Madden Quarters Match} 2 - Palms {Madden Palms Match} 3 - Stubbie {How Madden Palms Match plays against Trips} 4 - Stump {Madden doesn't have this. This is a type of Match coverage that can play against Trips} 5 - Stress {Madden doesn't have this. This is a type of Match coverage that can play against Trips. It's designed to force the offense to have to take the least percentage throw to the outside among other things.} 6 - Steal 7 - Read < No this is not palms. This is something I read about bracketing the number 2 against certain formations. The list goes on. All of these I'd put under the cover 4 tree. But the well runs deep in football. There are other variants I would encourage people to investigate. There is a reason why 2 man in madden is almost never played. It's because there are no variants to it . . . which weakens it. In real life, there are plenty ways to play 2 man in different ways. Cover 5 cougar. Cover 5 bracket stuff. Most interesting . . . is something I read up on called - >Cover black

Your comment fell through the cracks. I'm sorry about this. A lot of jet sweeps work good against cover 0 from what I've noticed. It depends on the formation you're running it out of though and sometimes, you have to make sure that their isn't a second level defender tucked outside of the box on the playside of the run. That's more so in generalizations though because each play with different formations can be different. See how your particular formation interacts with zero.

Lmao. Man!

Xando set up was amazing to this.. “look here it is my moment I got it 😃😞😡 that was to funny love this guy

It's really designed to attack single high from what I've gathered. If you're in single High, a team would like their chances in running this concept. But, if the safety and the corner switch off correctly, you can properly defend it with leverage. Madden does not have that type of switch coded in with cover 3.

I will try a re-upload later
