Yes you can do this but the aggressive teams still don't use these blitzes in real life. A team like Va Tech is known for their pressure package, but they usually send 5 or 6 rushers or they zone blitz. So if I set their aggressiveness high, they're bringing 7 or 8 all the time.

I know this was a huge issue in Madden because all I had to do was dump it of to my TE and instant 20 yard gain. In this game I see it 2 or 4 times a game.

Ive actually noticed that most huge runs in this game come against big blitzes. Engage 8 actually sucks at stopping the run.

Re: Please Eliminate the Double CB Blitz and Engage Eight from the Playbooks

CPU logic stinks, calling blitzes so often that slot fly and skinny post routes are too easy to complete. But for me, calling an engage 8 always gets stuffed at the line. It's like the blitzers trip over their own feet.

I've stopped using massive blitzes and now only rush one extra guy now and then.

No need to take them out of the game though. Just do a game-wide defensive aggressiveness adjustment prior to starting your dynasty, and it should take out a lot of the goofiness.

I agree. I doubt the engage eight is used very often if at all in real life. Only leaving 3 guys in coverage? The cpu calls it way too much.

Ahhh, my bad, I thought you meant you calling it.

I don't see it very often from the CPU, maybe 3-4 times in about 30+ games?
