Any speedy defenses?

I held FLA to 14 points. What you need to do is play with the middle linebacker. If it's a play where he blitz I hesitate till after the snap to see if it's a pass or run. If it's a run then I go. If it's a pass then 9 out of 10 I drop back a play the middle. I also found that man works better than zone. Play man don't BUMP AND RUN or PRESS. That will give the reciever too big of an advantage. Kepp the safties over the top so they will sit down if nobody goes deep. With this the CPU gets around 60 percent but his yardage is low. He dunks and ducks lil 5 or 7 yarders but I shut him down. It just takes a lil getting used to.

Here's the thing dude. I don't think most of us are giving up many points...at least I'm not. THe issue is that the CPU can drive down the field with ease until they get into the red zone, then the space tightens up and those over the middle passes get picked off, or they settle for a FG.

We're not giving up points, we're just frustrated that we don't have any real control over our defense like we do on offense.
