Generally, who are you playing against? Is the pressure coming from one particular side? Are you leaving a back or TE in to combat it? I know against certain pass rushers, if you leave them singled up on third down, it's a wrap.

And do you get sacked in general, or are you getting sacked when you use slide protection? If so, you want to be selective how you slide the line on anything other than a blitz. Theoretically, if you're playing the Vikings, you should be able to slide the line left towards Allen, but if you do that in Madden, the defensive end on the right comes completely untouched.

I only really use it when I see an overload blitz coming from a side. It shouldn't be that way, but slide protection will turn someone loose if you're using it against a standard rush.
