Re: How do you play great defense?
What you gotta understand is that vs. the CPU, on heisman level especially, there is one constant rule.... "IF THE CPU WANTS TO SCORE, THEY WILL SCORE".... we have all had those complete shut-down performances all throughout the game and regardless of the competition, if they have the ball, they will somehow pick your pass d apart for an easy score... nothing you can do...
I actually spoke to a person at EA at a sports gaming show a few months ago... not sure how much truth there is to this, but here is what he told me... i will para-phrase:
"if you are running up the score on an opponent, and the system (i.e. herbie or corso) gives you grief about doing so, your squad, in that particular dynasty, is tagged, for lack of a better term. in the weeks following, you can rest assured that your team will get a dose of what you were dishing out...."
i have heard herbie say, in game, "this may come back to haunt them later" (when i am running up a score), or something to that affect and sure enough, the game or two after, i cant stop a highly inferior team...
that said, i find that picking a 5-2 and playing zone against a 2 or 3 wide receiver route gets the offense all out of sorts... they think you are gearing up to stop the run and when you drop 8 into coverage, it gets them most of the time.. especially if you have fast DE's that can get pressure with only 3....
