Hook routes and Slant Routes=Unstoppable

OK these routes are pretty much unstoppable we play on all madden with knockdowns and Awareness turned all the way up. the bump and run does not work because They simply put the man in motion and hike the ball while he is in motion. Anybody know a defense to stop the play that has two slants and a hook route. We have yet been able to find one.

Slants and hooks are unstoppable if you play man coverage, but thats the way it should be. Those are very tough routes to cover and as long as the QB throws the ball at the right time, and in the right location, playing man is the worst thing you can do.

Playing zones and staying the passing lanes will get you easy turn overs if your opponent cant read the zone coverage.

^^^i agree 100%...i tested this theory out last night, and yes in man-man coverage it was easier to connect with these passes, but in zone coverage i threw 3 picks.
