G'Mo's Coaching Corner
 

Welcome to a discussion thread to talk all things sim and Madden football from a strategy and technique standpoint. I coached in college and in the pro's for almost 20 years. I also an a Madden player since '93. So you can say I have a passion for both. Feel free to ask questions and make requests for anything you want.

** Here is the running youtube playlist of videos that are in this thread **

Quick intro video on how the game isn't "fitting up" the lead zone plays properly if you run 4-3 Normal. I plan on doing reviews on all the coverage's next!

Cover 2 Update

I had posted a video on how the first EA patch drastically changed and fixed the footwork of safeties playing deep half coverage. However I noticed there are some inconsistencies that show up during games (in this case online vs another human). I recently played a game in which I called cover 6 and my half field safety seemed to revert back to the pre-patch footwork (pedaling inside).

I'm not sure why it happened. Was it a glitch or does EA want players to randomly have horrible technique? Anybody else notice this happening?

I made a video explaining press technique good and bad today using video from a preseason game in real life. I'll get to the madden videos but I wanted to post this here just in case anybody was interested.

Quarters Coverage vs 2x2.

Here is the first video of the quarters coverage series. It's kind of an intro highlighting the coverage responsibilities, strengths, weaknesses, and some game issues that are showing up.

We need more breakdowns like these.

Part 3 talking about quarters vs 3x1. It's obvious that they removed the underneath defenders matching inside breaking short routes.
