Madden NFL 17 Teach Me How/Strategy Thread

[wiohnt]

Teach me how to play defense!!. I'm getting abused by TEs, even if I manually put a corner in man to man on one they simply can't keep up and get burned by every route.

I'm having the same problem, having trouble getting a pass rush with the D-line as well.

Is the Madden Prima guide worth the $15?

How do I switch out RBs/WRs during the game without pausing and going to depth chart? PS4. Thanks

I get decent rush - but I don't get sacks. Soooo frustrating!

No. No guide/ebook is worth spending money on. It's a game and not worth spending anything more than the cost of purchasing the game.

if you're new to madden then maybe. The last time i saw one in the store it covered a lot of basics like player ratings and team strengths mainly filler type material. personally, i'd hit the skills trainer and if you still need tips then youtube for free tips or ideas. then when you play guys online take note of what they use that works.

I am 1 for 1! I won my first ever onside kick, and it was awesome.

I was 38-30 down, Packers vs. Cowboys, and I scored a TD with 40 seconds left on the clock, but missed and extra point, so it was 38-36. I kicked the onside kick, didn't get the cursor in the correct place on the kick, but the Cowboys didn't gather and there was a massive bundle on it, like real life. Eventually it was given to me and Gaudin and Davis went crazy, it was so awesome.

I didn't score a TD or the field goal to win the game though, so that was disappointing, but thought this was cool.
