Maximum Tackling
Hold down X button to make a wrap tackle. There's less risk of a risk of missing the tackle, but the ball carrier could drag you for a few extra yards after contact and fall forward.
Tap X button or press (click) on the right thumbstick to hit tackle. There's a bigger risk of missing the tackle, but if successful you can land a punishing hit that stops the ball carrier dead in his tracks. You can also force a fumble you put the helmet on the ball while making a charged hit tackle.
