Madden NFL 17: Putting a Stop to Mobile QBs



Mobile QBs are one of the toughest assignments to defend in the real NFL much less in Madden, where they've historically been somewhat overpowered. Last year, Madden put in a tool which allowed you to click-in the right stick for anyone playing a spy on the QB to bring them in as a rusher if the QB scrambled.

In Madden NFL 17, EA has expanded that to include any shallow defensive zone assignment being able to come up on the QB when he decides to start scrambling.

Obviously the lessons here are that if you are facing a mobile QB, trying to play some zone defense to contain a QB, especially on more obvious passing downs, may be the way to go to keep a Cam Newton in check.

What methods are you using to keep mobile QBs in check in this year's game?

As someone who plays the CPU, I do nothing and watch mobile QB's willingly stop themselves.

Re: Madden NFL 17: Putting a Stop to Mobile QBs

Is this a joke? Whoever wrote this article hasnt played much of the game. I havent seen a "mobile " qb scramble yet. So how do i stop a "mobile" qb? I do nothing because there isnt one this yet. Sorry i dont need you watch your youtube video on how to stop them lol. I am really confused by this article. Someone needs to do some research on the topic

Russell wilson kicked my butt the other day. Are people that are not seeing QBs scramble playing with adjusted sliders? I've seen plenty of scrambling by the CPU in my games, but I play on default sliders.
