From what I have learned is that you have to trust your CB's a lilttle bit....so find a team with CB's you can trust...

This sounds about right. Easier said than done though. CBs I can trust huh? I haven't trusted video game CBs in years.

my father only throws the ball deep or flats, so im covered there.

but when im not playing him, i get demolished because the wrs seem so much more aware of the ball than the defensive players.
unless of course your ohio state.

Cover 2 does not solve the flat pass in this game because the zone defenders are on crack or something.
Nothing stops the flat pass this year.

I've really enjoyed defense online so far.

For scrambling QBs, I will occasionally send the CB (far side of the field) and I almost always get the QB. I will run cover 2 and cover 3 and give up some yards but man it feels good to catch a scrambler. I had a 17 to 14 lead with Michigan and had OSU 3rd and 8. The rolled out Pryor and my CB came in and spun him around and my DE came in and swallowed him up for a 10 yard loss.

There are some good plays in the 4-3 set where the LBs spread out and can come up and make a play.

Also, I have been using my DE and dropping him off in pass coverage. I sniffed out a slip screen earlier today and stopped a key 3rd down.

honestly, I'm having more of an issue covering the middle. Especially on 3rd down.

I'm having no luck at all with Cover 2. Only minimal success using DE Spy. The CPU offense is ridiculous this year. Even the cupcake teams are tearing my D apart. This isn't fair Sweetheart....

Beware of people lagging out games..I was up 21-0, and all of a sudden, massive lag throughout the game when I have ball..Couldn't call a play or throw a pass..i swear some people do anything for their online record....He got his win, and now i am frustrated because i got lagged out a game.....
