Free Madden 25 Tips: Modified Cover 4 Defense

Madden 25 Modified Cover 4

In today’s free Madden 25 tip, we are going over a way to shut down those guys who only target their best receivers.  We’ve all played those guys who just only throw to their #1 and #2 receivers and pretty much ignore their tight end or slot receiver.

The full modified cover 4 breakdown is below.

Madden 25 Coverage Defense: Modified Cover 4

Formation
: Dollar Normal (and a bunch of others)

Play: Cover 4

Setup:

  1. Man both of your outside cornerbacks up with their wide receivers (Select the cornerback then A/X + right stick up + Icon of the receiver)
  2. (Optional) Put one of your lineman in a qb spy
  3. Control one of your deep safeties

Madden School Pro Tip: This play works wonders and covers pretty much every route in the game outside of wheel routes.  Pass commit so you are protected against play action passes.

Great tip, I think alot of us madden players would like a defense that stops the run but still has an effective pass coverage, for those guys who like to run no huddle and keep audibling between run and pass
