a simple way to make your screens more powerful

Posted on September 16, 2010 at 03:54 PM.

Now we all know that screens dont always work so heres a simple way to make other options for you other than the screen. For example

lets say its a HB slip screen going to the right, I hot route the back side recievers to a passing concept like smash or curl flats etc. etc. and the playside reciever to a quick slant there is other decent options to go to other than the screen. like on a trips formation i like to make a levels concept to go along with the screen. and the beatuty of this is that it works for all screens except a double WR screen. just a hint to make your screen game more powerful

@rickmitchell I most times use a gb screen and the lineman block or the back side WR

You realize this is illegal in real life, right? I consider this cheese because it's a penalty that EA just happened to leave out of the game.

DDT I'm sorry but how is it illegal? It's just a pass play with a screen basicaly?

Because your offensive lineman are past the line of scrimmage on screen plays (except for a few, i.e. bubble screens). The penalty should be "ineligible man down field", a five yard spot foul and repeat of down.
