Today we are going over a really two man route combination that beats every coverage in Madden 26.
Check it out below!
Playbooks: Chiefs, Colts, Eagles, Packers, Panthers, Shotgun
Formation: Gun Wing Stack
Play: Four Verticals
Setup:
- Make sure you are on the left hash mark
- Hot route the A/X tight end to a drag
- Hot route the B/circle tight end to a return route and motion him to the right
Reads:
- Your first read is always the X/square receiver when he comes open
- If he is covered, look to the three underneath routes
Overview: The X/square receiver gets open against every defense outside of man to man coverage. If your opponent takes that receiver away, you have three good receiving options coming over the middle at different times.
Let’s take a closer look at how this play works!

This is how the pre-snap play art looks. Remember that you want to be on the left hash mark.

Against zone defenses, once our X/square receiver gets past the underneath defender, we can throw it.

We are able to make the catch along the sideline before the deep zone is able to get there.
