Blitzing six and getting two guys through is an effective tactic on this years game.  But when most people are getting two guys, they are getting them both off the outside. This blitz is special because one is coming from the B gap and the other off the edge.  It is recommended to audible from a dime or 46 speed package into this play so cornerbacks are the...

This play is very effective versus zone coverage specifically, but will also end up beating man coverage as well with the slot WR’s routes breaking up field late.  This concept of dragging all zone coverages to guard the flat routes, to later then open up a slant to the outside WR’s is a main idea on this play. When opponents are matched up with...

This play is a great find in this years game, as this five wide “bunch quad” type formation is only found within the PHI playbook.  The tricky thing about this formation is that you would expect to find this formation within a five WR set.  This formation is actually found from a trips bunch formation, while the RB is then on the outside right...

Play Insight: This is a very unique animation that has been brought back to Madden 2012. If you notice your opponent in bump and run coverage or any other single man coverage with no safety help, it would be an opportune time to attempt this animation. Streak whichever wide receiver you think has the best chance at roasting the defensive back deep. The best bet...

Play Insight: This is one of the best man beaters in Madden 2012. In this play, we take advantage of a specific route to flip cornerbacks across the field. The route the RB is on appears to be nothing special, however, it is a delay route and the man covering him switches to guard the innermost left wide receiver. This creates a wide open WR on the left side by...
