Cool....thanks for the info.
I do alot of hardcounts,I just can't remember if I do them on the straight pa.lol
I do know...sometimes to change up the snap I will "quick snap" ...and not allow the defense to get properly set.
This seems to work at times also.

you can try that but to me madden needs to remove the jump the snap feature which is dumb... it is not implemented well.....the cpu might jump a lot when you hard count but trust me it will save you from getting sacked fast and getting your runners stuffed right after the snap

it seems the cpu has spurts wher they jump the snap lik 5 straight plays but if you get them called for false starts then they will stop....

I just hate it cause it feels like an unfair advantage for me but I understand what you are saying. I still haven't gotten any false starts though and it seems like I should be getting them occasionally

Ya I find throwing in hard counts works wonders for keeping the defense honest.

If only I could get my secondary to open their eyes and cover something I might be able to win a game.

I used to have the same problem and I did a few things to help me out. I blitzed less so they had less opportunities to make that quick read and hit it fast. Then I started calling more plays that cover the short routes. Basically if I run man I only want one deep safety not two and if I run zone I want 3 or less deep. From then on I watch if they prefer the flats, middle, deep outside, or deep inside. Some teams really seems to pass to the flats and the middle a lot so I will start to run a lot of man. Also a mixture of occasional blitzes and some press can work wonders.

Don't get me wrong I don't claim to have it mastered but I can contain the passing game much better. I play most of my games with the lions and their piss poor secondary so I like to blame it mostly on them lol.

Yes hard counting on play action is key. I usually hit Miller a lot with PA for good yardage. Some of the best routes are on PA plays for the Steelers


As for stopping the pass, yes it can be frustrating, especially when they keep throwing off their back foot. The key for me is really to just shut down the run and get those 3rd and longs and hope you call a good nickel or dime play

Unfortunately the backfoot passing has to be accepted with my cpu qb accuracy that high... if any lower then the cpu does not throw on the money on their backfoot but they throw picks left and right... so i dont mind the backfoot passing.... i just play defense and live with it... but is not as bad as it might seem

I've played three games with these, (all Jags (me) vs. Titans). The only changes I made were I raised hum run block to 5 and qb accuracy to 52. There were just too many times that my feet would be set, no pressure in my face, and my throw would be 5-7 yds off target (this led to 2 ints in one of the games). The last game was the best, I lost because of turnovers. I had 5 turnovers, 2 ints, 5 fumbles (3 lost). David Garrard fumbled three times (2 lost). But I held VY down (180 yds passing). I lost by 20, but the Titans scored 2 tds of ints. One of the ints was me trying to throw a corner route to Mercedes Lewis when he was covered by a much faster saftey, and another that bounced high off the hands of my reciever into a corner's hands. Both were good ints. Neither one was a good throw (one a bad decision, the other too high). But I like the sliders. Great work.
