Yeah I've noticed that, 3rd receiver is usually the best receiver in the game because a lot of times you can't even SEE the wide receivers unless you zoom out before the snap so you have no clue what's going on out there.

When you play on harder difficulties, before the wide outs even come into view, you've already got pressure in your face.

This scheme works.


Put Ogletree at 1, start the game by making 2 or 3 easy passes to him so the Defense double covers him. His speed stretches the field if you keep him running vertically.

Put Miles at #2, he gets single coverage and destroys the defense

Bryant at #3, sometimes there is a linebacker against him lol. I had 10 catch 150 yard game.


RW at #4, its a mismatch



use MB as the #1 back and felix as the 3dback


I know it sounds stupid to put Ogletree at #1, but if you can get a drive with 2-4 passes to start the game, he gets doubled and have him run flys, then your playing 10 vs 9 on the rest of the field since your taking two people out of the game on defense. My brother was like "why the hell are you putting ogletree at 1 wr" I said "Scheme" lol and it worked.

Marion is an absolute BEAST in short yardage, if you need 2 yards, he is getting it. Just run him up the gut and your getting atleast 2 yards

I thought this deserves its own thread because it would get lost in the other one.

It's an early bird tweet special or something like that.

Enjoy.

Dez is ridiculous in the game. I absolutely love using him. Got the game last night and played my buddy, first play of the game was a quick pass to Dez. I broke through two tackles and scored from 66 yards out!

As far as the game goes, I am not very impressed.

I'm cheap and bought it online :laugh2:

I was actually driving to GameStop when I got this email from a friend and bought it on my phone before they ran out. They already ran out once today.

Dez Bryant

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Picked up Madden last night at my local gamestop here in Irving, TX. As I was leaving, guess who showed up to pick his copy? Dez Bryant. Pretty neat knowing he couldn't wait to play as well. He must have wanted to see how he looked in that digital Cowboys uni.

Geez dude. you just got it yesterday and already went through a whole season?

lol. Crazy.

Anyway I picked up my copy this morning when Gamestop opened at 10 am. I had already paid for it, reserved it back in May and had it paid off about 3 weeks ago. I played 1 quick exibition game and...

I LOVE IT.

Now I realise I'm bias. I haven't played a new Madden since 06 or 07 on the Gamecube so this was all new to me.

Loved the graphics. Loved the controls. Loved the way it played. I loved everything about it in that one game I played.

I can not wait to get off work tonight and get my franchise mode started. I'd also be VERY interested in getting a bunch of us together and doing an online franchise mode.

I know we'd have a little trouble with who'd get to be Dallas but I think it would be a blast to play an online franchise mode together with a bunch of folks from The Zone who have it.

Ha! I don't buy that story. As far as I can remember, most players get their own exclusive copy....early.

Pics or it didn't happen...lol

in that case, I dib the Cowboys anyway. Jason Garrett is a BEASTTTT when you hire him as head coach. Atleast thats how it was in madden 2010.
