I play my brother and hes always fucking me up in madden.
In fact he has a long history of just destroying me in football games in general.
I know he always runs a under 2 man and a cover 3.
Do you guys know of any plays or play types so i can get around this?

Thanks in advance guys

Haven't played this year's version and it always changes from year to year. Try some motion to see if he is playing man or zone. It will help with run blocking the corners. That's about the only advice I have right now.

The last game i played last night with him i had the colts and he had the bears.
I ran for 160 and threw 6 interceptions.
Ended up losing by 21(not bad considering 6 picks).

I mean im doing slants, corner routes,verts and everything and that shit always gets intercepted....there must be an offensive set to beat the 2 man under and cover 3.
Yes it looks to be man defense

Go with some screens...double wide reciever screens can really open up the field

In addition to that the cover 3 leaves the complete middle of the field open about 15 yards back...the quick over the middle pass works but not all the time, the mid range slants seem to work on a regular basis

So all in all I would say screens and medium passes over the middle

My secret is run the ball and play defense. If you can control the clock and try to time it so you have the ball last in the 2nd quarter you have a good shot at winning. I had to run the ball this year because the playbook changed that I always use.

I've found if you run the ball and control the clock you will frustrate your opponent into throwing the ball most of the game and they will eventually make mistakes.

I'm 16-4 so far.

yep control the clock and the game is yours

also leave the trick plays alone, they fail more then they are effective...not worth it IMO

I found out a glitch that is beyond a glitch, you can never lose if you use it

I'm 56-4 online. against man have you're faster receiver doing a drag or an out route. zone is tough this year so run it on D. but the best thing to do against it is call a WR screen. if he isn't doing zone blitzes the you should be able to run on him pretty consistantly. if he starts doing zone blitzes then a drag route should be open at some point across the middle. but i hardly ever run man on D.

If he's in man, run out and ins and look for who beats their man. If it's a zone run flys and hit the wr between the CB and safety as soon as he leaves the cb zone throw the ball.
