    1000 thanks to anyone who finds a formation that lets me handoff to Percy Harvin

    I'm a diehard Vikings fan who just wants to replicate how effectively Percy is being used this year. All I've found so far are jet sweeps, reverses, and occasionally bubble screens to get him the ball in the backfield.


    Team playbook, package sub, whatever! Help meee

    The Dolphins and Patriots must have something. Against both teams i have seen their #1 WR line up next to the QB in shotgun. However, i'm not entirely sure I've seen the QB then hand it off.

      I'm pretty sure it's just random in the game.

      Unfortunately, we can't put WR's on the depth chart or quick sub them in.

        An excellent start nonetheless! I'll start the scouring.

        As for Acera? What do you mean by random?

          There are some plays in the Vikes playbook that you can run with him when he comes in motion.

            I wish formation subs would be in the game still. Never understood why it went missing when I swore we had it in one of the games recently (can't remember which year exactly).

            I'd love to use Randall Cobb sometimes on maybe a delayed pass out of the backfield in shotgun or on one of the delayed draws just to switch it up since I don't have a very reliable or speed back at all. They dev team gas done good adding things we wanted, just don't take away some of the simple things.

            I'm stuck being torn to use him as my 3rd down back knowing on 3rd and 1 I will wanna run it, and I don't wanna leave him as the RB when I wanna use him as my 4th receiver at times.

              mess around with something like this....

              go 4-5 WR....then audible to a Run play that has a FB....(usually this will cause 1 of the WRs to go line up in the backfield as a FB....then maybe u can audible to like a FB dive)

              also, if u go 5 wide (with no RB) then audible to a run, 1 of those WRs would have to go in the backfield i'd imagine..

                After spending the last couple hours searching, I've found a play!

                Shotgun- Split Close. The formation allows you to sub in a WR at the FB position where a TE normally resides.

                The play is Close FB Inside. WOOOO. Can't find any other formations in the gun to allow me to make that sub, so this is pretty significant for me.

                Though formation subs are practically gone, thank god they still let us use custom playbooks online.

                  The beauty with this is there's no audible necessary! Harvin and AP in the same backfield, all the time!

                      Only WR in the game you can do that with is McCluster from what I've seen..

                        nah, you can do it with percy too but it's a bit pointless when i usually put a blocking back in on 3rd.

                          Hmm well that's odd. In a user v. user game online there's no Percy for 3DRB spot....


                          In any case, the Shotgun Split Close is my new savior, plus by creating the playbook I can throw in the Bronco Heavy and the Wildcat to get more WR taking the snap formations. The possibilities are endlesssss

                            You can put a WR in the 3RB spot, I've checked it with my Pats CCM I could line up Welker there if I wanted to.
                            You gotta have Hope! (My Minnesota Vikings franchise)

                            After an incredible 2012 season ends with a Super Bowl win, Hope Turner and her Vikings are trying to prove that their performance was more than just a one-shot.

                              It won't allow you to do it to your depth chart online or in a ranked match IDK about unranked though.
