Madden 22 strategy guides

Playbook: New England Patriots

Formation: Gun Wing Flex Wk

Play: Redzone HB Scissors

Setup:

  1. Make sure you are on the left hash mark
  2. Hot route your A/X tight end to a delayed fade route
  3. Hot route your B/circle tight end to a flat route
  4. Double team the outside most rusher on the right

Reads:

  1. Your primary read against cover 3 defenses is the Y/triangle receiver. Lead pass up
  2. If he is covered, read between your running back and tight end in the flat
  3. Your final read is to release your tight end on the delayed fade route

Overview: This is a big of a different way to beat cover 3 defenses that can be really effective if you need to change it up a little.

Let’s take a closer look at how this play works!

The play ends with us walking into the endzone untouched.
