NFL QB teaches coverages using Madden 24💡

[@ThatsMrTaylor2u]

This really puts into perspective how advanced playing quarterback in the nfl is and emphasizes why great quarterbacks deserve all the praise they get

[@DookieBlaster]

Agreed, but for a different reason. This is high school level stuff that he's explaining. This shit gets COMPLICATED, and also it's all disguised usually out of a cover 2 shell. This is why film is basically all nfl qbs do with their lives.

[@MFBloosh]

Most important position in all of sports, without a doubt.

[@tdd7216]

True because he’s not even close to a top QB and has good football IQ it just shows how smart qbs are

[@PurpleLightning6was9]

​@@DookieBlaster Exactly. I learned stuff like this is high school. Quite literally the tip of the iceberg.

[@thesaurus4231]

bro we need some more videos like this. Like you playing online head to head or in mut and telling us what you're looking at as you dot people up. Hell even throwing in a few defensive plays in there would be cool to see.

Dude I’d love for you to break down offensive and defensive schemes systematically like this, except spend like 20 minutes on (for example) cover 1, its counters, and the variations on rules and designs that teams run.

[@benlindemulder3343]

Keep em coming Kurt!

[@chuks62]

this video is a great idea! I would just suggest that you the video moves a bit quickly, so maybe breaking the coverages down with more detail would be helpful

[@3playerpolitics]

Yeah as an international fan who only started watching/learning football seriously four years ago, even watching this at 0.5 speed was too fast for me - lots of terms I still don't understand 🫤

[@kevinstucki8644]

[@praetorian9823]

Honestly, if you ever considered doing a long running series and wanted to get complicated, I would *love* if you rebuilt Green Bay in Head Coach 09. That’s one of my favorite series to watch KZbinrs cover, and the way the AI adjusts to you and even steals your plays could be a ton of fun. Especially since *you* can design your own plays.

[@Jeffro_YT]

Love the insight into stuff like this man. Keep it up

Bro this is the best breakdown iv seen. You should do read play options and explain what you are looking for and which defenders to read. That’s what iv always tried to learn to do in madden and iv never been able to figure it out

[@dustinmichel7608]

I run a cover 1 spy, a cover 2 man, and a cover 6. I was shocked how teams struggled with the reads.

what are the best run plays against cover 2 zone

[@2ooevolve.wedalast1zleft23]

Sidebar Kurt,, I'm an Atlanta native man. I was absolutely pissed when the Falcons didn't give you a real shot when they were choosing Matt Ryan's back up man. I'm not sure you still have that itch man but at the rate D Ridder 9 is going.... Sheesh it's hard to watch. I really liked the command you displayed from the second pre~season game on. I thought "Wow this guy is gonna be a player if given the opportunity and experience under real NFL fire. Hell, I know I can gather 35,000 ppl at the game with signs we're so annoyed. frfr If not I wish you great success in all your endeavors.

Agreed, im kinda new to football and although i understand some of it there is a bit that i dont understand yet but thats why im trying tolearn it

[@Dadbot]

Zone is when defense covers a certain area of the field. Man is when the defense covers an offensive player specifically. Leverage is basically how a defender approaches a defensive situation.

[@johnathenhealy5227]

You gotta run some franchise mode bro!

[@CaptianClutch02]

[@MrBxblackout]

CMON KURT YOU CANT BE SERIOUS BECAUSE IN MADDEN A FLAT ZONE REFUSE TO PLAY A DRAG OR OUT ROUTE CONSISTENTLY BUT IN REAL LIFE ANY DB OR BACKER WILL NOT ALLOW THEIR AREA OF ZONE TO BE CAUGHT ON OTHERWISE THEY BELONG ON THE BENCH HANDING OUT GATORADE 😂

[@uberempty]

this is awesome. very informative. tho i feel a disclaimer should be present the entire time stating that "madden is not football, it is maddden". the basic jist is this: this information will indeed help you understand the quaterback position. but none of this is applicable to online matches in maddden. its really that simple. just think for two seconds. how many nfl players are making the MCS bracket roster? thousands of NFL players play madden. none are considered top tier players. because madden is not football, it is madden. long and short. you will do great against all-madden AI but you will still get destroyed in online match play.
