Re: What defense will stop short passing and screens?

Can't speak for Madden, but IRL, man defenses work better against screens than zones. Since a screen is designed to invite defenders in, don't blitz. You'll be taking those defenders out of the play. And use bump & run if you suspect a WR screen.

Cover 2 should work well against quick outs. Bump & run with a good CB could be effective as well.

Crossing routes are tough. With man, a DB/LB has to stay with the TE all the way across the field. With zones, defenders are passing off coverage to the next defender and there will always be holes. Maybe try a hybrid zone/man coverage if there are any, to try and confuse the user.

Again, these are real life strategies. I have no idea what would work in Madden.
