Gun Tight Offset TE – Slot Outs

Playbook: Los Angeles Rams

Formation: Gun Tight Offset TE

Play: Slot Outs

Setup:

  1. Motion your X/square receiver to the left and put him on a comeback route
  2. Put your Y/triangle receiver on a streak route

Reads:

  1. Against a cover 3 defense, your Y/triangle receiver will get wide open.
  2. Against cover 2 defenses, your first look is the A/X receiver on the out route and then the running back on the angle route
  3. Against man to man defenses, you can look to the A/X receiver on the out route, the running back coming out of the backfield, and the X/square receiver on the comeback route
  4. Against cover 4 defenses, you can throw to your A/X receiver or the R1/RB running back coming out of the backfield

Overview: This is one of the best plays to run in Madden 17.  Against cover 3 defenses, you should get a touchdown every time.  You also have good options against every other coverage.

Idk if it’s because of a patch but Y streak on Slot outs doesn’t get flat out open down field against cover 3 anymore.

Can you let me know what you find? I labbed it against multiple cover 3s

In the video the deep middle safety runs toward the deep B route on Xbox, but with every cover 3 I run it against the safety chose to run toward the Y receiver.

Only way I can get it to work and be as wide open as your video is to put both WRs on the right side in streaks.

How do you call a come back route? Is it the smart route because I don’t see it
