Madden NFL 17 News Post



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?

In one game I had Tyrod Taylor scramble 3 times, what is funny is that 2 of the times he didn't slide and got popped and coughed up the rock. It was still that M17 reluctant, "Oh I guess I'll run if absolutely have to" scramble, instead of just taking off with a purpose.
