How to get a QB to Slide on PS3

For the life of me I cannot get my QB's to slide. In the game or in practice. On a scramble or a designed run. I thought it was the square but in practice they only dive with that and in the game I've clicked the square - and I swear I'm not making this up - they try and pitch the ball like they are running an option and have fumbled a few times.

What am I doing wrong?

It's the same button as your runner dive and defender tackle.

You need to tap it. If you tap it they slide, if you hold it too long they dive. You also need to tap it in open space. If you're too close to a defender he'll dive (and probably fumble).

Try letting go of the left stick completely and then lightly pressing square.

It also seems to me that if you try and slide right at the first down line he'll dive too.

Tap? I never would have thought of that. Thanks.

If you didn't think of that then here's another tip, just in case you don't already know it. In passing, if you tap the receiver's button it'll lob it, keep it held down it'll be a bullet pass, and hold it longer than a tap, but let go before the QB releases the ball it'll be a touch pass.

Yeah, that one I figured out the hard way.
