Hard to call it a nano blitz. You call the blitz and crash the line in.
Literally one adjustment on the line and the o line loses its mind.
It's just terrible programming.
When you can call any coverage play, tell all linebackers to blitz, and the o line shits it's pants every time, that's just not good game design.
This isn't a single defensive playcall being used. I mean Christ 3-4 odd like every play in that set can destroy the qb.
Do we just house rules ourselves and not play 3-4 defense because it's unstoppable?
Madden is once again hot trash in which massive adjustments need to be made by the player restricting themselves in order to get anywhere near a sim experience. [Reply]
This years Madden is only a tiny bit better but I kind of want to get it. I just want to play some damn franchise amd Madden is the only option. Is there anywhere selling it for cheap yet? [Reply]
How disrespected is Butker in this game? Holy hell he's a 77 overall. He's one of the top 2 or 3 kickers in the league. His power is only 78. He should be at least a 90 rated kicker and his power should be 95+ [Reply]
I’ve been playing occasionally. It’s like I don’t feel in total control of ball carrier and others. Keep seeing these button prompts pop up at keyed moments either in pass rush or wrs.
Is supposed to sort off feel like button push / move/animation? I just sort of feel a bit disconnected once the play starts. Hard to explain. [Reply]

Pass rush feels kinda weird. Against the CPU I usually control Chris Jones, FAU/Karlaftis, or Bolton. Jones with his bull rush against single blocking is unstoppable but the QBs are good at veering away from the rusher. [Reply]
Call whatever coverage you like in either 4-3 or 3-4.
If it's 3-4, simply pinch your d line and blitz all linebackers.
User cover either the rb, te, or slot depending on formation.
If 4-3, simply call for the d line to crash middle, but leave them lined up as they are. Blitz all linebackers, but user one of them again to cover the rb, te, or slot depending on their formation.
At the snap, watch the qb get instantly destroyed by either ends, or olbs screaming into the backfield.
The game doesn't adjust to this, even on all madden, even with the qbs with the highest awareness ratings.
If you lose a game on Madden because the other team got points, its because you wanted them to get points.
Offensively, the game is a joke with the correct route combinations. Catch them in cover 3, call slot streak for easy one play tds.
Mesh concepts confuse the shit out of the cpu, and the absolute ai killer is a bunch formation with a streak on the outside motioned to the sideline, a corner route in the middle, and a short out inside.
It just breaks the brain of the cpu. One of these receivers, literally every single time you snap the football, will be wide open.
In week 16 of an online league, a cpu generated rookie qb that I drafted has 10k yards passing and 111 tds to 12 ints.
Tyreek hill has about 6k yards and 60 of those tds. The rest are spread around between Hardman, Kelce, and Mark Andrews.
I literally went 10 games without ever rushing the football one time. I don't punt. There's no reason to.
The only ints thrown are the bullshit drop ints when the game is trying to rubberband the opponent back into the game. [Reply]

Yeah I got straight up tired of running mesh and hitting Kelce for a minimum of 10 yards. Even out of the basic strong formation with 2 WRs, mesh is almost always open. And yeah, the bunch formation flood concepts break the AI's brain. I always end up running some different stuff just to keep it interesting but then I quickly get bored. [Reply]
