TWIM Mailbag Question

Out of the Arizona playbook, which formation is best to start a scheme?
- Do you need an outside run, a counter, a blast, a quick pass, and a vertical threat in a formation for it to be an effective scheme?

What is the overall difference and effectiveness of the different streak routes, for example the angle streak, straight streak, fade route,also the streak route with the angle on the end of it and how would you use them accordingly?

1. will you guys be coming out with a 3-4 defensive guide (BAL/NYJ) soon?

2. what is a solid defensive roster set up for the Ravens to run the 3-4 defense?

3. with all of the popularity of everyone running the 46 defense this year...in my being different....i would like to see at least 3-4 of the 34 defensive plays schemed together. man, man blitzes and blitzes w/cover 1,2,3, 4 behind them that are set up exactly alike.

4. what is a good scheme w/audibles out of the West Coast pb?

I use the dallas offensive book and im looking for some unbumpable routes.

motions or manually motioning players usually lead to unbumpables. N you can do that in almost any play.

ANYONE know what episode of TWIM or MadDen TV explains the benefits of dime flats??? I've been looking for this for about 3 days now.

never mind I found it by googleing madden bible dime flats.

On defense, when is a good time to mix in man coverage into my scheme?

I never use man coverage at the right time and therefore usually resort to using zone defense throughout the game.. can you give me some scenarios when to use it?

If you play against someone using snugs and they are motioning a wr to have 3 wr to one side...they are trying to flood your zone (using combination routes to beat zone defense) so its prolly best to audible to man cov

I know your pain

I was wondering if you could help me out finding good running plays and schemes out of the NO playbook and how you would adjust the Patriots depth chart to fit the 3-4 the best.Thanks

When playing someone that uses a formation that has 3 wide receivers on one side with a te and hb sometimes blocking....how do u stop...it i find it hard to blitz and hard to cover...especially fast wideouts

using 46 pb....

need help

1. What are some other good plays out of the 46 playbook? They don't necessarily have to be out of the 46 formations. They could be out of the nickel, dime, dollar, etc...

Example: NB blitz as one option, is there any other plays out of the nickel you would recommend?

2. Isn't the 46 a dime look? So couldn't you audible to something out of the dime?

Example, DB blitz out of the dime flat?

I don't know... I'm really not the defensive expert that's why I'm coming to you guys!

Yeah 4-6 speed basically plays dime. We love zone blitz out of dime. Good call there, thats solid thinking and a next level type of play recognition! Check out Madden tv 37 as gibs covers most of the blitz's he runs.

I use bunch or snugs flip to tip my opponents hand to see if they are in man or zone. Now, online anymore other players with show blitz and man align which is no big deal but after this set up they will audible to zone after coming out in man or audible to man after showing a zone coverage look. It is easy to see pre-snap but it can become quite confusing after making my adjustments. Are there any little intricate details to tell if my opponent is in man or zone without using motion after they audible to a different defensive play? Such as movement by the DBs?

Another case would be snugs flip and this example will give me problems. The left corner (on the left side of the tv screen) will align directly over my WR while the right corner will align to my right WR like it is a zone look.
