Re: Stopping routes in the middle.

If you just have a WR on one side of the field man him up with your FS but if he streaks be aware lol

Re: Stopping routes in the middle.

If your good at reading routes I would suggest usering the safety. Once that receiver goes for the slant either jump it and get a pick 6 or light up the WR for a fumble.

Re: Stopping routes in the middle.

Try putting multiple LBs into hook zones. LBs generally have higher hit power and being in zone coverage they will square up to receiver and hopefully jar the ball loose either for an incomplete pass or maybe even a fumble.

Those short passes over the middle are annoying but my philosophy is that the offense will need to complete way more of them in order to score while I only need to break up a couple to stop them.

Re: Stopping routes in the middle.

do you have safeties with high hit power and atleast 70+ tackling?

Good thing my team is the cowboys. Barry Church and JJ wilcox (rookie) hit power are both in the high 80's. I just smack wr's coming across the middle. Im good for a fumble or 2 a game. I user the safety or middle linebacker to patrol the middle.

JJ wilcox is a underrated beast. Only a 67 over. But high hit power and tackle rating makes him a good user controlled person. I smack wr's, te's and rb's. JJ gets me atleast one fumble a game by himself.
