Running Outside Help

[Airdrop01]

I am having a heck of a time and I've tried multiple controllers so I know it is not the controller.

On outside runs, say, quick toss or stretch plays, I'm getting an extreme pause or slowdown in my RB. This happens with guys from Jamaal Charles to Leveon Bell, etc.

People online are killing me with this type play so I have no idea what they are or are not doing but if my RB would just run as he does when I run inside runs, I'd be fine. As soon as I try to move at any angle upfield my RB just stops or slows down immensely.

Any tips or help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

I play mostly offline, but I have not had your problem. I try to hold of sprint until I am in the hole then I burst through.

If you are on the PS4 don't pull the L1 trigger. Just use the acceleration (r1) trigger. Also I dont know what their speed/acceleration is, but I seem to not have very much luck with anyone less than around 94/94. Since my Titans don't have a speed back (McCluster doesnt qualify) I immediately get Jeff Demps out of free-agency. I have been using him since Madden 25.

With out side runs you need to let your pulling linemen set up their blocks before you start to go north/south. These kind of plays take time to develop and if your pulling guard can't put a body on a backer or safety before you start trying to go up field your going to get blown up for a loss.

Well...I take it all back. It was my controllers. Apparently all of them. I bought a new one and it is working perfectly! Sorry for the trouble boys.
