Elite receivers have too much power. I was getting killed by odell beckam, perfect coverage, double coverage, shyt don't matter. And I'm killing nikkas consistently with amari Cooper, shyt ain't even fair.

Agreed, i bodied some nikka who had the Bucs with the Falcons. I just tossed it to Julio and this nikka was making one handed grabs between double coverage on everybody :dead:. I got 5 TDs with him

I'm killing nikkas with the deep ball breh.
3 & 20:manny:
5 secs left on the half:manny:
Hell 4th & 20 :manny:

If it's one on one coverage and they not giving me the extra cushion, I'm scoring damn near every time. No matter how man steps they have on me, amari is passing them in the end and scoring more often than not.

I've had nikkas bomb that shyt in me and score plenty of times though.

Anyone else having an issue with running the ball? Passing is easy but I can't run for shyt. I don't hold turbo until I hit a hole maybe just a Wack OL but I get stuffed 8/10 times :francis:
outside runs and draws been working best for me. Inside shyt be tough tho :bryan:

I got this today. I had last year's version for a couple months before I sold it.

I saw it was on sale for $50 at Best Buy so with GCU it came out to $40 which was low enough to get me to bite.

Fired up my first game. Played as the Dolphins v the Bills and lost 17-0 :mjcry:
Tannehill threw 3 INTs and the WRs had about 5 dropped passes.
Art imitating life :francis:

i always find it weird when people say things like this.. it's like you don't know what you want in a video game


Odell was either the #1 or #2 receiver IN THE LEAGUE last year... i'm pretty sure that's because he was killing nikkas game in and game out.... and when the defense tried to double him, keep a man over top, do whatever the fukk they could..... they STILL couldn't stop him


now they put that exact thing in the game.... "b-b-b-b-b-b-but he's unstoppable" well no shyt... he was unstoppable in real life




reminds me of 2k and curry... "b-b-b-b-b-b-b-but nikkas is just running up the court and launching 3s and he's making them with 2 hands in his face"


ummmmmm isnt that exactly how he won the mvp and 73 games? isn't that real life?



now when you throwing it up to Bruce Ellington and he's beasting.... well then i'll take it as a mistake

How do you throw a back shoulder pass again? I remember seeing how last year, but forgot

Sooo, How do you stop Star WRs? I just played against the Giants and ODB killed me no matter the defense, double team, If I controlled the Corner..

How did EA not think this would break the game?

Your 2k comparison is off because you can't hit contested shots like that in 2K... So as long as your defense is good, you can contain Curry.

I did everything in my will to just stop ODB and dude had 300 Receiving yards and 5TD( he threw to him every single play)

You have way more control and effect on the defensive outcome in 2k vs Madden

You gotta play it like real football.

Again. In real life, he was shytting on teams defense by the week

So how do you beat that? Keep them off the field. Slow down your pace. Win on time of possession.

What's the weakness of the Giants offense? QB and oline

Manning is an 81. The LT is a 76. The RG is a 73. The RT is a 70


So blitz on the right side all fukking day. Eli also got a carry rating of a fukking 51. So he's going to fumble all day long. That or throw ints


As for covering odb.... If you are rushing on those weak ass lineman, Eli is going to be throwing the football out fast. On quick routes you want to jam the wr. That'll make him take a few extra seconds to get open, while you hitting Eli who doesn't have time to wait for that


Keep your safety over top in case they pick up the blitz and that jamming leaves you wide open deep. But manning deep throw is only 83 so that should be inaccurate too





That's what I mean when I say play it for real. shyt you got plays where you can pull the coverage to one side. The entire coverage.

But yes you have to game plan. You got to see what lineups he's running before you pick your defense. You gotta scroll through player ratings on the other team and see what weakness to exploit.


That's why they let you view their formation and depth charts. Cause in real life you'd see that info too. And you'd plan for it. And you'd spend a week trying to stop that.


And after all that planning. He'd still be second in the league. If they ain't stopping him in real life..... Well
