Shovel Pass?

[EmerilLIVE]

Is it in the game? I've always thought that Madden should have the shovel pass, but it never does, why not?

Im not sure if madden has it this year but I wish they did...I loved the shovel pass in APF

My only problem with the shovel pass is when it comes to online play it'll be abused for all the wrong reasons IMO.

Why do you think it would be abused? It's just a variation on the draw and the screen. Do people abuse the draw and screen? Like either of these plays it is not hard to stop and is only effective when used infrequently and in the right situation.

Exactly. Its not like its a money play. Just a little trickery.

Last year there was a specific play that people abused over and over. The WR Screen pass. So yes screen plays are abused and last year that play could be pretty tough to stop on a consistent basis. Just my thoughts tho.
