This was awesome and SUPER easy to understand as someone who's never played real football, thanks for this!

[@KurtBenkert]

LOVE this comment

[@jamesmacklin5193]

Man thank you. This to me is by far the best Madden channel. Instead of just uploading "money" plays you actually teach concepts. Keep them coming brother!

[@trent.langley]

Damn, I’ve been reading high to low instead of low to high concepts… glad i didn’t pass up on this video! I see the value. “Don’t pass up the easy plays”. Love it.

[@KurtBenkert]

Glad you found it here!

[@patlong714]

Love your perspective Kurt it brings me back to my film sessions in college haha. We ran stick concept a ton in JUCO. Pre snap read to back side slant, post snap to go route if he's pressed or its a cover 2 corner. Our TE was nice on the options so that was always a good read too

[@kkriz6695]

Good video! Can you go through slide protections Also would like to see under center/ play action. I like to run the ball and want to get better at keeping teams off balance

[@KingSimKits]

Awesome breakdown! One of my fav channels really breaking down IQ💪🏽

One of the only madden content creators I respect, this dude can take any formation, any concept, and dissect it. Meanwhile, the majority of the madden “content creators” literally spew out the same videos of the same dumb meta that EA puts in madden every year. It’s become such a vanilla, bland, pay to win game and it is so painful to witness.

[@swooshy4u]

8am on that grind 🫡

[@ajbickford312]

Not sure if you’ve done this, but would love to watch you play some regular games of Madden with an eye tracker. Would help a lot with showing exactly what you see play by play

[@East573]

You are the man thank you so much kurt this changes how I look at madden now

[@ldent15]

I loved learning about the passing game, THANK YOU! 👍

[@shannonxsteele9831]

Thank you.Very informative.So basically quick passing routes are pick a side and medium passing concepts are low to high?

[@jimmiehissong]

May be the best video youve made! (The protection one today was great too!)

This fundamentally changes how I’ll be playing CFB 25. I didn’t really know how to make reads before. Just stare down my red receiver and hope for the best lol

[@lbeagles1711]

Bro same I just played a game after this video and dropped 42 points to his 21 and I’ve been struggling before

thank's Kurk it's what I needed

[@velvetunderbite]

Kurt

[@b.a.m5367]

Do you have a video similar to this but for stopping things on defense?

[@YourCoachTex]

Love your videos man. I consider myself a student of the game, and now that I have sons that is something I try to provide for them. I’m about to start posting videos when the college game comes out, I would love to chat, pick your brain, and maybe catch a pass from you.

[@zach9672]

This is excellent Kurt, thank you. I played in college and I never understood passing progressions like you just taught. You should be coaching if you aren’t already. Question for you: when do you make a choice to go high low on progressions (I noticed you did that once or twice in the game)? Is it with deeper concepts or do you see something with the secondary and LBs that makes you change from low-high?

[@KurtBenkert]

Mostly by timing of how things play out, sometimes it’s situations based

[@kathyworthy7601]

Kurt how do you get your wrs and tes to go deep for hot routes

[@gns4838]

Vs a cover two look and running that corner route, guys will streak RB to open that corner. Then read the corners drop, you could also streak the backside wr to keep FS wide and open the middle for a streak to RB.

[@ATMadison]

Can I get a playbook based on these 3 concepts! This makes it so much easier to understand. I appreciate the help.

[@jeffyang4936]

That Jet Sweep at the end was insane lol. that did not look like it was gonna work

[@brendan9951]

When you do a jet sweep press B to hover over the player in motion then hike feel like gives less of a tell Just like doing hot routes on run plays

[@KurtBenkert]

Oooo that’s smart

For some reason the Madden 25 beta is still working for me, The QB pump fix on this game affect the DB. So crazy you guys are going to love this s***

PS5 controllers are expensive..... Thank you 😆

[@kevincurnick]

But Kurt, 99% of Madden players would tell you the slant is supposed to be a third window throw completed at the opposite sideline vs zone 🤦🤣

[@OctoberHourglass]

Ex star Texas 3A QB from 2000-2004 here. That being said, I already know all my reads KB. Nothing more for me to learn on any level. And THAT being said, I can’t wait for the NCAA road to redemption to drop mayyyyyyne!! 😂 Yes this was satire. And yes I was a stud back when Bush was in office. Check tape.

This shi too confusing man

[@tommysmith7462]

Great video mate. I am from Britian and I'm really wanting to get into American Football, mostly through madden. I can watch our football and my favourite part is the tactical side, player in the half spaces, high press, inverted fullbacks etc but the sheer amount of tactics in this sport is absolutely daunting to say the least. Feel like I'm back in Maths class 😂 So long story long, where should I start? Or what order should I start learning things.
