@maddenschool no max protect plays? Generally speaking a good blitz should have a max cov that looks the same to take advantage of the opp blocking extra to stop the blitz
*max coverage not protect*
Yes, you are 100% accurate that you should mix in max coverage plays with any blitz and have it look exactly the same pre-snap. The thing is, there are so many different max coverage defenses and all of them have weaknesses somewhere. You can do a max coverage from pretty much any play or formation.
Maybe you want a max coverage man to man defense with 2 extra guys in yellow zones, or a max coverage cover 3 defense with the extra guys in hard flats. It just depends on where you want the extra coverage to be.
I noticed some plays have been removed from some of the defensive playbooks. Is there a reason for this?
Do you mean from last year?
No. It is for this year. The Quarter Normal Defense had the Under Smoke blitz in it and I was looking for it again and now its not in the Seahawks defensive book.
Are you sure on that? It is hard to believe that they would just take out plays in the middle of the year. Are you using a custom playbook?
