Ask your questions here and we will break them down on the show, thanks!

Can you do a R/C tutorial for ps3?

which do you prefer, run or pass on 1st down?

I throw it up again

Any advise on kicking onside kicks?

Stopping the inside run. Not so much between the tackles. I mean when they set it up to attack the B gaps or when they take a play designed to be a toss or c gap run and bust it up the middle.

1. what are some good defensive schemes out of the 3-4 Stack and Nickle: 3-3-5 formations?

2. how can we effectively stuff outside pitches and toss plays to speedy backs such as C Johnson and Adrian Peterson primarily out of the 3-4 formation or other defensive sets?

Since you guys admitted that "problem" was the best madden player of all time and you guys have seen him play, can you guys let us know his strategy he uses in madden on offense and defense?

add on question to my above ones:

since you guys love to come out in Qrtrs....could you show us a nice defensive scheme out of the Qrtrs?

I'm new to the site so I don't know if this question was asked on the show before but,

1.) How do you setup the goaline play that I see ZFarls run plenty of times? And also how do you do it so quick? I find myself attempting to do it and coming up short with the steps and blowing a hole in my coverage.

2.) What do you look for when finding a team in Madden 10? Is it height in the receivers, speed in the HB, accuracy in the QB, or speed in the defense, etc. ?

How do you stop all the off tackle plays in the pass balanced playbook from the 4-4 formation

Does it help secure the ball more by holding triangle on a right-stick rocket catch?

Do you have another effective pass play from goal line other than ur backwards pass?

In your opinion what is the best defensive formation? 3-4, 4-4, goal line, etc.

hey i saw some 44 stuff and loved it. you guys have any good "coverage" d? cant call it f..... D haha

Does doing multiple moves in a play while running the ball increase the chance of fumbling? For instance, I get the ball, juke -> spin -> juke again -> truck -> then stiff arm as a example. I noticed the more sh!t I do with the same back during a play the chance goes up, but it could be coincidence. I do know that the more stuff you do tires out the RB, maybe that ties into it.

Maybe you guys know officially?

I already posted this elsewhere, but I'll put it here too.

I'd like to see some blitzes timed.

1. Maddenbible Goalline D.
2. 4-4 Cover 3, blitz either OLB.
3. 4-4 A-gap
4. 3-4 Weak blitz 3, manual b-gap
5. 95+ speed CB, turbo blitz off the edge. Nickle strong, strong man, shift line left. I think that works.

This will be our next fact or fiction!

I know it's been talked about in another thread, but I'd love to see a demo of covering those zig-zag routes for RBs out of the backfield.

What to do when your opponent runs pa rollouts like 3rd and 20 he's getting owned everryone and their mother knows its pa r/o waggle and my d-fense bites everry time! How do I counter this? Also do you all have like a user pik tutorial sec?

1. what are the best "5 Formations" to scheme together (audibles included) that utilize heavy running and quick passing out of the Run Heavy pb?

I'm with Burrito. The AI is so broken when it comes to PA passes. Will calling loose coverage help?

Hells yeah! One cat I played had like 4 PA with suction blocking that he ran ALL GAME WTF?

one good way that i use to counter the PA passes is to blitz my linebackers and shift them back. this way they don't always get in as fast. But certain formations are better than others of course. im pretty sure it works well out of the 1-5-5 but i could be wrong

I couldn't agree more about the suction blocking. Sometimes you'll have a guy two steps from the QB and he'll get sucked sideways into a block!

could you guys show us a nice defensive scheme out of the 4-6 playbook (i.e. blitzes, run stoppers and coverage defenses)?
