Skip to 2:03 to see a slant. There is also another slant at 2:23.

I think people are worried they won't be able to do this in Madden 10, but the play call basically TELLS the QB throw the ball in a second, it's a designed play. If the slant is covered, then you'll see the QB scrambling or checking his second and third look for someone to dump the ball off to.
Also the fade to the corner of the end zone, that's usually a one step drop and lob over the top... not that it works in Madden, but hopefully it will in M10.
