Dominant Madden 16 Strong Tight Pair Mini-Scheme

Just about everyone who plays Madden 16 likes to pass more than they run but most pro gamers have found that the key to success in Madden 16 is to have a dominant running game combined with a lock down defense.

Today, we are giving away a free Madden 16 mini scheme that is based around one of the strongest but most overlooked running formations in the game.  It features 7 plays out of the Strong Tight Pair formation that when used correctly will give your opponents nightmares.  Enjoy!

P.S. If you like this free mini scheme, you will love Madden School Unlimited.

Play: PA Spot

Setup:

  1. Put your B/circle receiver on a fade route

Reads:

  1. Your primary read is your A/X tight end on the corner route
  2. If he is covered, look to the FB in the flat or the X/square receiver coming over the middle

Overview: Once your opponent starts worrying about the running game, this play becomes much more effective.

Formation: Strong Tight Pair

Play: PA Power O

Setup:

  1. Put your A/X tight end on a slant route

Reads:

  1. Against man to man defense, your A/X receiver on the slant route should be open
  2. Against zone defense, you should look to your X/square receiver on the drag

Overview: This is an awesome short yardage play especially once your opponent starts focusing on the run.

Play: HB Dive

Play: HB Cntr Wk

Setup: None required

Overview: This is the type of play that can go for 20+ yards or get you a 2 yard loss.  It shouldn’t be one of the main plays you call from this formation but it does have it’s place and it is the only run to the left side of the field.
