We are going to take a closer look at the 4-3 Stack Cover 3 Buzz



I like this base play as a simple cover 3 look, but also because it is nice to build a cover 3 Will Blitz out of, which isn't in the game.

Simply use the Strategy Pad [D-Pad] and press left to activate the defensive line adjustments, then press left on the Right Thumb Stick to crash the line left.

In this installment, I want to talk about offensive play calling. Specifically, I wanted to talk about plays that are tied together. I like to call plays that will give the defense the same look, but turn out to be different in some unexpected way. This keeps the defense honest and on it's toes.

NOTE: All of the plays I will be talking about come from the Madden 13 playbook Facebook ap, but you can find them in Madden 12 as you create your own custom playbook

Today I want to write about my Madden NFL 12 Game Play Settings. These are the settings that i use to get the most enjoyment and most realistic NFL experience I can out of an otherwise unrealistic game. Sure, these settings won't fix very issue, but they do try to address a lot of them.

In this installment I will be talking about the Cover 0 and Cover 1 out of the 4-3 front.

I can find Cover 1 Press with the FS in a hook zone and the SS in a deep zone, but it is still a press play, even if I flip it. I want to choose when I press or not, not have EA decide for me. I really only press in cover 2 where I can afford to press....

In this entry, we will focus on the Cover 2 out of the 4-3. I don't care for how Madden does defensive line stunts, and recommend on each play you simply crash the line left or right, preferably to the side you expect a run, or if you happen to be blitzing either the Sam or Will, then to the side of the blitzing backer to help free up the DE on that side.



A simple cover 2 man. I typically...
