Re: The gap control defense, or, an Ode to Jimmy Johnson
The downside of show blitz is mis-represented in Madden at this moment in my opinion. The upside is in some ways also.

Yup. Even if the OLB is covering the TE, He Should NEVER, back up immediately, NEVER. You always attack as a defender. You put your hands on the Te to Jam him at the line then you make your read. |

I think if there was some way to program logic that would tell the LBs, "When the OL down blocks, I fill in Casey is also correct. When in zone coverage, the logic has them retreating from the LOS, then reacting to the run, which shouldnt happen. Having an in the box SS doesnt do much unless you are doing it yourself. |

Great Points about false steps. Right now in Madden it seems you can take a MLB, take 2 or 3 false steps, and still recover to cover a deep pass using speed burst. There should be more of a penalty for being out of place.

USC played more middle field safety defenses, with the weak safety in the box and the weak lb lined ub stacked on on the three technique, which is alot different then the under 2 deep defense you showed. Gotta mention the 1-gap penetrating defenses too, which certainly isn't the same as the gap control defenses. |

Re: The gap control defense, or, an Ode to Jimmy Johnson
I think the biggest thing wrong with run defense in madden is first, the defense is only given pass protection assignments. If the play is a run all player's assignments become tackle the runner which causes a collapse in any containment that should be there. When this happens running becomes less about finding rushing lanes and more about breaking out of tackles. This also means that since there is no containment if the first line is broken the back is gone.
This ends up leading to most games rushing to be mostly losses and 1 or 2 yard gains with way more big plays than there should be. This may end up giving decent or even really high rushing numbers but this also ends up stopping the running game from doing what it is supposed to do for most teams which is to set up a consistent pushing force moving the chains and forcing the opposing team to react and bring extra people up near the line. The only way I have found to have a consistent rushing attack here is to have a big power back and just run north and south but that should not be the case. There should be the ability to with a solid o-line being able to run the ball with decent consistency without having to make big plays every game to put up realistic numbers. Most backs in real life do not make a big run per game on average. In fact a complete list of running backs with 16 or more 20 yard carries in a season would be Tiki barber, 1 time Adrian peterson, 1 time Chris Johnson, 1 time That is 3 total seasons in 5 years, around once every 2 years one back out of all the backs in the league will pull this off. They really need to show this in the game and having players maintain their assignments against the run is probably the best way to do it. |
