Which team should I start off with ? As far as fitting both offense and defense guide.
Generally any team that runs a 4-3 defense is good. You can switch a 3-4 defense to a 4-3 with a few minor tweaks to the depth chart. So a team like the Seahawks, Cowboys, Falcons, etc.
Will there be any sort of guide on button commands to properly set up these plays? I seem to have a lot of trouble in the 4-5 seconds getting everything input before the ball is snapped.
You generally have 8 seconds minimum in any game to set up a play. So it is best to start right when the offense breaks the huddle. Some of it requires practice and repetition so you just get used to pressing the buttons in the right order. Some of the extremely complicated plays, you may not be able to do. We’ll likely put out a detailed guide a little later on with every hot route and adjustment in the game.
Thanks so much Madden School. This is my second year going unlimited and you guys rock! Now I’ve just got to go practice getting down all these pre play setups.
Thank you for your support again this year. It means a lot!
Last year you guys made a “how to read defense” tutorial. Which was great and taught basic pre-snap reads. This year can you guys build off that and do a tutorial on after-snap reads. For example…reading what the safeties do after snap tells what kind of coverage the defense might be running…stuff like that.
That is a great idea. It is definitely something we can do a little later on in the year!
Which would be considered the best plays in this playbook for shutting down your opponents running game?
4-3 Over Cover 4, and the 4-3 Normal run stopper as well
Whats up guys! I am a first time unlimited subscriber. Only books I got was ARI Offense and SEA Defense. I bought the year so is there more content out yet? Thanks the books I have ROCK!
We will have a lot more content on the way coming soon! Thanks!
Which defenses for which packages? I understand if its 2 wr or less you should come out in 4-3.. what about 3 WR, 4 WR etc
Nickel will generally match up well with 3WR and if your opponent is in 4 or 5 receivers, you can use dollar or quarter.
If u could explain how to setup all this within 8 seconds would be great?
You just have to practice the setups of the plays you want to do. If you are struggling with some of the setups, stick to the ones with only 3-4 pre-snap adjustments.
How do you sign on to the app?
There is no menu option to sign in. Only “Home” “Favorites” “Offense” “Defense” “Playbooks” “News” and “Settings”. None of these allow access to the ebooks.
Hi, we have 2 separate apps. One for our regular members and one for Unlimited members. You can access the ebooks inside of the Madden School Unlimited app. Sorry about the confusion.
Do you guys run any defense, with max coverage? or do you send pressure every play
It is always good to send pressure until your opponent demonstrates that he can stop it. Once he starts blocking extra guys to stop it, that is when you go to a max coverage defense.
cool idea, thanx
