One example of 10 I mentioned. Plus people can do that with their middle linebacker still once they smell the play out which doesn't happen pre snap in real life (and you would if you knew a screen was coming). You just don't like it because it's my DE though I'm playing OLB with him?


Your other 9 examples can still be done. You just are too lazy to press more buttons presnap. You don't automatically get engaged off the line. I just had a game earlier where all he was doing was dumping to the flats and throwing screens. I stopped him with my DE

People can do it with their MLB but that doesn't mean people will be happy about it. Nobody is going to cry over you not being able to run across the formation with your DE instead of LB.

I agree, I don't do this either. But it's legal in football. Why wouldn't you be able to do it in madden? Some coaches do it in real life

Well the goal of Madden is to have it play realistically. Just because you can technically do it under the rules doesn't mean it actually happens in football.

I'm all for you doing whatever works in Madden even things considered cheese because I take it as part of the game. I just find your argument funny because you want the game to be realistic until it effects your strategy

It's ok man you obviously haven't tried it. I formation sub my olbs to DEs in nickel, dime, and all 4 man fronts.

It is not physically possible to reposition them pre snap if the start w their in the dirt. You can bail to the other side or haul arse to where you want to be after the snap if you press 4 buttons that don't allow you to be immediately snatched by the OL. Then when he switches the direction of his play and quick snaps I'd have to press 8 buttons instead of simply switching players

What I run in the game is a 4 man line, and fairly often depending on the O I will stand up and move, or stay up and play LB. you can't do it now unless you start in a formation like a 1-3-7, or 2-3-6 where the edge guy isn't classified as DE

That's all I'm saying lol

My DE is my LB! I just like the coverages in regular dime over the exotic one. They aren't all the same.
Plus the 2-3-6 dime only two guys play with their hand in the dirt... What wrong with starting in a play with 4 in the dirt and dropping one to a weak spot in your coverage pre play as a LB
