Linemen who are fairly decently rated just don't block, defenders bounce off of my linemen and penetrate instantly. My FB and pulling linemen will run into the back of a lineman next to a hole instead of through it and blocking. My CBs get stuck to my LBs while defending in man and just kind of sit there. My linebackers try to tackle RBs with their backs. I just don't understand how so many people seem to enjoy these slider sets, and I can't get that out of them. I like challenging games, but it's hard for me to find any enjoyment in it when it's only made hard because my players might as well just be bags of rice.

I know it's hard to believe but it's not the sliders. It sounds like there's a long list of things you need to work on if you are struggling like that with the green set from knowing how to read defenses, getting the ball out of your hands to an open WR instead of holding onto it and watching the pass rush, to making the proper cuts to open lanes instead of crashing directly into the line when you get the handoff, making plays on defense with the player you are controlling and I'm sure it's alot more things you are doing wrong.. How long have you been playing Madden? Send me a PM if you want me to help you out and give you some basic tips that should get you going.. If that doesn't work I can help you adjust the sliders even lower to fit your style of play..

One thing you have to realize is everybody's skill level isn't the same.. Obviously there are a lot of guys who aren't having the issues you are because they have been playing years and basically know how to execute on both sides of the ball.. You can't expect everything to come easy for you with my sliders. You have to be willing to put in the work to get better and you have to stay 100 percent focus for the whole game or else you will struggle. Any type of laziness with my sliders will get you punished. It's that simple... If you aren't willing to be 100 percent focused and put in the work to get better instead of blaming the sliders you might as well check out some other sliders around here that might fit your play style.
