Bringing the Veer and Shoot to the NFL.

I wrote this earlier that has the formations and audibles for each book.

My offense is garbage according to Madden. For the XBox Users I'll list the formations I use as well as the audibles for that formation since those are key. ** means I really like this play for key situations. As a note any verticals play from a 3 receiver side is pretty much money against zones just wait for that middle receiver to free up about 20 yards deep, use possession catch, this frequently converts 3rd and longs for me. Pistol: Ace - HB Counter, HB Zone, ** Skinney Posts, PA Shot Go's Bunch - Smash, HB Dive, Seattle, PA Deep In Bunch TE - Flood, HB Zone, Curl Flat, Verticals Slot Wing - HB Counter, HB Dive, Slants, PA Divide Shot Spread - Quick Slants, HB Dive, ** RNS Post Drag, PA Deep In Trips 4WR - Curl Flat Corner, HB Dive, Four Verticals, PA Deep In Trips Open - ** Flood Post, HB Dive, Outs, PA Verticals Wing Trips TE - Stick, HB Dive, DBL Post, PA Slot Out Shotgun: Ace Twins Offset - Outside Zone, Inside Zone, ** Posts, PA Verts Bunch Open Offset - Flood, Inside Zone, Y Trail, Fake Screen Wheel Double Flex - Slants Middle, Inside Zone, ** Deep Curl, PA Read Flip Trips Eagle - Wide Trap, Inside Zone, ** Middle Hi Low, PA Read Normal Y-Flex Offset - Outside Zone, Inside Zone, Angle Smash, Vikes Double Post Spread HB Weak - Cake Read Option, Inside Zone, Smahs Corners, PA Dagger Trey Offset - Stick, Inside Zone, Levels Sail, Verticals Y Drag Trey Open Cowboy - ** HB Cross Screen, HB Base, HB Angle, *PA Cross Dig Trey Open Offset - Strong Flood, Inside Zone, ** Curls Dig, PA Read Trio - Flood, Inside Zone, Steeler Slot Out, PA Slot Corner Trips Y Iso - ** PA Bubbly Y Look, Inside Zone, Slants Flat, PA Deep Outs SingleBack: Ace Pair - HB Stretch, HB Dive, TE Attack, PA Middle Dice Slot - HB Counter, HB Dive, Curl Flats, PA Stretch Eagle Trips - Curl Flat Corner, Inside Zone, Levels, ** PA FL Stretch Jumbo - **HB Zone Wk, HB Dive, X Post, PA Dive Jumbo Pair - HB Counter Wk, HB Dive, ** Y Stick, PA Power O Slot Y Flex - HB Stretch, HB Dive, Slants, Inside Cross Twin TE Chief - HB Zone Wk, HB Dive, TE Spot, PA Y-Drag Wheel I added some bigger TE sets into this playbook since I started to facilitate running late in games to kill clock and improve inside the redzone when vertical passing can't be part of the offense.

Really digging this thread and been using it for my CPU vs CPU CFM... I have Dak as my QB and Derek Henry as my RB with Evans and Hill on the outside WR positions. Gotta get some more speed receiver's

I was wondering if you can post your star rating for each play. I don't have my Internet connection (moving so I needed to save some money for the new place) I would have downloaded your playbook but can't now 😢

The only thing I've done so far is double star the plays you put an star next to, they are my RedZone plays 😎

I don't ever do the CPU vs CPU stuff, or anything where the game picks plays for me, so I didn't bother with puttings stars for each play based on the scenarios. Not entirely sure it would work well anyway since the system is based more on what the defense shows rather than the offensive situation.

Guess this explains why I'm not seeing the full effect of the playbook in the game, CPU only going to pick random or high star plays

So do you play coach mode or you're actually playing (picking plays and controlling the players)?

My football IQ on actual schemes and playbook style isn't very high, but I enjoy running a bunch of trap and power runs, along with boot action and standard shotgun passing. I typically pass 35-40 times a game while running 20-30. I don't want to create a new playbook because then it would be difficult to do formation subs. So which default playbook in Madden 17 do you think would be best for my type of play style? I could just edit the gameplan and audibles.

I make all my own play calls, yea the game picking plays might be weird because 95% of them probably have no stars attached to them.
