Madden NFL 25 Blog - Playing Defense

01:31 PM - May 15, 2013 by jpdavis82

EA Sports has posted another Madden NFL 25 blog, this one covers playing defense. In the blog they talk about heat-seeker tackling, defensive recovery mechanic, lunge tackles, defensive awareness, pursuit angles and more.

Quote:


	...defensive awareness plays a big role this year, as defenders with a higher awareness rating are less likely to bite on fake-outs. So when a ball carrier attempts a juke on a high-awareness defender, that player is likely to make an appropriate reaction and still make the tackle. Another example is retuned pursuit angles, where defenders take smarter routes to the ball in order to track down ball carriers and make plays. In addition, defenders will now �break down� and prepare for a tackle as they get close to the ball carrier. This controls their momentum and puts them into the best position to make a play.
