| Well, I find labbing with a friend to be more difficult than just gettin out two controllers and doing setups yourself, to be honest. | |

Help would be greatly appreciated. welcome! labbing as Zan said is better to do by yourself then with someone else. YOu will get more accomplished this way. The best way to "lab" IMO is to start out iwth basic coverages such as 2 man under and then pick your play - form there just try to find ways to beat the coverage- crossing patterns, unbumps, smart routing routes, motion snaps. Literally try everything that the game allows you to do- Over time you will get quicker with what you are doing. Once you master 2 man under then try 2 man under with bump, then go to cover 3, then cover 2, then cover 4 etc etc | |

| I don't lab any more as I've retired from madden and mrl, but its best to do alone with a second controller. Then test what you learned against random people, because playing with a friend after all that labbing will screw you up because you'll get used to his tendencies rather than developing the sense to adjust to whats being throw at you | |
