In real life the 46 defense has the weakside DE lined up 2 yards outside the left tackle and the OLBs are meant to be shifted to the strong side BUT as EA makes so many mistakes they completely have this flipped in the game so in order to get the correct formation just flip at the playcall screen and it makes a BIG DIFFERENCE in run stuffing in this vid with bad quality lol i am running the 46 Cover 3 Note: in formations such as strong close and weak i where the FB is offset manually shade your middle LB to his outside shoulder as it prevents the Fb from sealing the edge cleanly this is a real life coaching point

I'll have to try this out man

Very interesting...good info

Good stuff

As a person that runs a lot of 46, this is prime info. Good post.

with how popular the 46 formation is it is suprising to see more info on it. I was getting killed by offset I formations, will definately try this

I will pass this along to the defensive playbook guy to look at. He is the smartest most knowledge football mind I have ever spoken with and will literally draw plays on the chalkboard for DAYS with guys. This is good stuff

I hate how they get such little things wrong. In the 46 it makes a huge difference, in real life and in the game.
