Why can't I run the damn ball in on the goal line?

I run the ball all the way down the field (literally, from my 1, running every play) but as soon as I get to the goal line it's just impossible.

I just tried 4 different running plays from inside the 3. None of them worked. No matter what, the defense was in my backfield instantly. No chance.

And some 60-something overall DT split a double team on two consecutive plays and made the tackle in the backfield.

Wow lol.
Just run QB sneak at the 1. Auto TD.

Odd... I find goalline running far too easy. I just run Iso, or as I've renamed it, "Rod of Moses", because the defense parts like the Red Sea.

Power O always works for me. Easy TD off the right side

i have to agree 100% with the original poster i cant run on the goal line at all

Not just goal line anything short yardage to the first down seems difficult. This is not a bad thing though, at times it's slightly crazy when the DT sheds the block so quickly and blows the whole play up, but I'd rather have that trade-off then the over used FB dive working every single time.

i unno. don't have any problems with short yardage. Theres always the endzone fade.

Did you try a FB dive? thats the play i go to when i need like 1 to 3 yards
