Leave other Q's here and we will answer them live

Any insight on a patch and if so what would they be fixing/tweaking?

Timing is everything right? This is another question that's hard to answer. When is a good time to bring heat when is a good time to play base plays. When is a good time to play coverage...

To just add on to this question... I sometimes bring heat to early and get run on for example..

Or make adjustments like manning up a slot or TE before my opp has shown me he targets those.

So How early is too early and whens the best time to biltz/Coverage/Base?

This more of an opinion question because everyone plays differently but when starting off a game from many people I've heard play simple base Ds show them cover 4 cover 3 cover 2 man 0 man 2 under and try and pick up where they like to go...

Others have said if you do that you can find your self down 21-0 and be to frustrated to even remember what they did vs your bases out of each formation...

( Sorry for the long extended question guys Thanks for your time )

"What are some of the best ways to get the HB involved vs zone coverage other than full house or shotty 2 back? Some routes such as circle routes do not seem to be as effective this year."

I was consittering changing my defense from a 4-3 to a 3-4 and the 3-4 even formation caught my eye. can you do a quick breakdown for me. thanks

How do you get pressure on someone who likes to stay in Goal line Offense all game, and how do you stop HB Draws from shotgun without giving up your coverage behind it?

How do you adjust to an opponent audibling down to a run formation (strong, iform, goal line) from a shotgun formation with say, 4 WR? And vice versa, if they have a running personell group and audible up to a 4 or 5 wide shotgun look? Thanks!

inside slants are K-I-L-L-I-N-G me! doesn't matter if it is man w/ a bump, zone, DEs on purple, etc. how do you stop the inside slants consistently?

Wondering the same thing

What are the quickest and easiest pre snap setups for beginners to use out of the 46 playbook?

Also what is the best team to use for a beginner that has a versatile defense to use the 46 playbook and a decent offence?

How do i best utilize DeMarcus Ware in defense ....use him as a RE in a 4-6 or keep him as a OLb in a 3-4 ?

1. could you guys explain the process of when and how often you utilize "packages" in both your offensive and defensive schemes?

2. could you guys explain what is the best way to utilize the Sub: 2-3-6 and 2-3-6 Flex formations out of the Ravens Dbook?

Now that im stopping the run (thanks for the breakdown fellas) my opponents are just throwing so my guestion now is

1: what is a good setup for the pass when using 46 cover 3 run stopper?(example 3wr running sets)

2: what is a overall good 46 or other coverage d against the pass? (example snugs/5wr sets)

Thanks again fellas!

whats a good play for 3rd and long ? like just after u get a sack and its 3rd and 11+

i always seem to give up a huge play .also is it better to play coverage D or bring the house with man or zone coverage. i cant seem to figure it out maybe its jus depends on ur opponent tendencies? i been using NYG D book

What plays or schemes can defeat the 1-5-5 shake in man and zone looks?

What is the most effective way to rocket catch this year?

I would like to see you do a breakdown where you show us your user progression reads throughout the play. I know you try to pick up on tendancies and stop those, but assuming you don't have a good idea on your opponent yet.
