NFL QB Teaches you the Easiest Offense in Madden 🎯

[@AustinOgonoski]

You have no idea how long I've waited for a channel like this. Tired of watching people opening card pack after card pack and spamming exploit plays. This kind of content is actually what John Madden himself envisioned Madden as a game being used for. Thanks so much for making Madden entertaining again.

[@KurtBenkert]

This is why I do it 🫡🫡

[@deadlimerence]

makes me think of MMG opening packs and being like "WOAHHH THE ANIMATIONS GUYS!!!" meanwhile the game is broken af

Makes me wish EA didn't have an exclusive license.

[@ToastThatsSpicy]

I hate MUT soooo much.

[@bridgefan87]

Exactly! I’m tired of that, I love playing madden in offline franchise. Because I love trying to balance run and pass, or RPOs. And not get screamed at the entire time by some loser yelling at me because I’m RPOing or kicking field goals. I love Kurt because I can learn and start to work up to playing all madden mode.

[@Matt-gs2mf]

Kurt you are filling a void that only someone with your experience could, keep up the great work and GPG

[@turns2ashes]

Kudos man, you’re making me want to play madden again. So sick of money plays and AI glitches. Some of us love real football concepts and you are nailing it. You need to start planning your content for college football 25.

[@John14-23]

video suggestion: teach us when/how to read routes: like high-low reads, how to read across the field, stuff like that. I hear you say it all the time like when you hot route but I dont really know how to do that myself in my own madden games. would be so cool

[@KurtBenkert]

Ahh I feel that. Let me work on that

I want to thank you for the videos, you helped me go from being best by a couple of touchdowns to being able to beat my friends that are great madden players

[@davechung]

KB, my wife used to hate when I’d play Madden or any sports game alone, but she thinks these videos are incredible. It’s uniquely entertaining watching people be an expert at anything, and that’s living proof of it. Keep this going! There’s nothing like this on KZbin.

[@KurtBenkert]

That’s a huge compliment thanks dude

[@TrueGbPimp06]

I have not played Madden since the 08 edition. This channel makes me want to play it again. The fun part of madden for me was always the strategy , not just the fact that you got to play as your favorite players etc.

[@rossdepina1881]

This content is unmatched! Thank you for posting.

[@4StrokeShop]

Kurt, I’m 13 years old and have never played on a football team. I didn’t even know how to throw a ball until last year. I want to play football for my school next year but the problem is that I would be competing for the starting Quarterback position with guys that are bigger than me (I’m only like 5’3-5’4) faster than me, and have a stronger arm than me. The only way I could get the starting role is if I’m more accurate and have a higher football IQ. Any tips? Thanks Kurt.

[@KurtBenkert]

What nfl players on KZbin and see how they move their bodies and generate force and their footwork. Best place to start tbh

[@4StrokeShop]

@@KurtBenkert Ok, thanks a lot.

[@nerdstop5025]

Kurt helping the future generation of players, love it

[@4StrokeShop]

⁠@@KurtBenkertSlight problem, when I try to do as they do, I’m extremely inconsistent with accuracy, I seem to do better when I’m not thinking “ok, point foot, plant foot, rotate, follow through” It’s odd. Any idea about that? Sorry to keep asking things I know your busy with life and everything but coaches on youtube can only do so much and I don’t have the money to go to a football camp. Also, you were a professional athlete and know a lot.

[@4StrokeShop]

@@KurtBenkertI was wrong, I really focused on just doing the rotate and whatever else instead of trying to focus on throwing and when I finally did throw it was amazing. Thank you Mr. Benkert.

[@Jeterfan906]

Those first few drives you basically told bro to go be a family man

[@KurtBenkert]

😂

[@Landunofficial]

It’s funny cause if u look at Kurt’s stat line, he had already thrown a pick but took it out the vid

[@seeve3]

Interesting breakdown of empty. I like the way you described how it is easier to read defenses in empty since the defense has to show their cards quicker. However, as an empty player, I do disagree with it being the "easiest offense to run." Being in empty requires a lot of different reads. As seen in your video, in every play, you were reading 3+ receivers on the play, and you were mainly free styling. I believe in more compressed sets; it is a much more systematic offense, and there are usually only 1-2 reads per play. Anyway, thanks for sharing!

[@ejgerm]

Just played my first h2h since implementing this offense. First pass was a pick six off a botched pump fake. After that scored four straight times and made him quit. This is good stuff! No meta bs just straight football iq

[@KurtBenkert]

Love hearing this, keep slinging it

[@willietomlinson5724]

This is gold , this is the type of content I’ve been looking for and it’s definitely something that can be applied to madden year after year . I’ll probably watch this video another ten time .

[@Apollyon_Rev911]

Incredibly helpful video. Thanks again! Hey, can you do some videos like this with tips and tech for playing against the CPU on All-Pro and All-Madden?

[@mmp5453]

I know it's madden but kurt really should be at least on a sideline. the mental aspect is fantastic, he knows ball.

[@Tucker123ujj]

The most impressive thing in the video was the other player staying as long as he did. Great video you’ve really helped me almost have a winning record in madden

[@KurtBenkert]

I’m thankful he held on for it 😂

[@willietomlinson5724]

He makes it look so easy. There is no way I’ll be able to make reads like this

[@KurtBenkert]

One day 🫡

[@hya_versus6354]

Just got done playing a MUT game against the new Bo Jackson HB card where all dude did was break 3-5 tackles per play. Literally cycled through the same 3-4 plays all to Bo and couldn't stop it because dude could just shed multiple tackles per carry. Then I watch this and remember how awesome madden can be when people don't cheese broken mechanics. I follow your tiktok and have been getting better with your tips, everyone on MUT just wants to roll out and run with their 97ovr jackson and mahomes cards, I stand in the pocket with Purdy and deliver! Keep up the good work homie.

[@socalkylex]

I feel like all these tutorials should earn Kurt an awareness boost in next years game

[@vampcloze]

KB you should learn how to make free form passes, they're a game changer. You just have to hold L2 and place the ball closer to a certain direction

[@pittsburghgentlemenpa4758]

Thanks to u I love the Steelers playbook again. When I’m online they ask me what’s my scheme cause they’re not used to ppl playing EMPTY. I have a streak of 10 games and counting….thanks Kurt for your content!!!! Sticking to Steelers offense playbook and 49ers Defense forever!!!!

[@ShyneBlaze]

I noticed when I start a game with an empty offense for the first play it makes it a whole lot easier for me to dictate the defense they gonna run for the whole game and throws a wrench in their gamplan 😊

[@createdplayer82]

I run empty all the time, I only have problems with d-line users cuz I don't have any time to make a read or throw the ball

[@yokoblitt2157]

They the easiest ones to beat because they aren’t really covering the field it’s almost like you playing the CPU but instead of All Madden it’s All Pro If the do decide to take the DL in coverage then you have all day to just to sit in the pocket

[@sxnthwave]

The best way I’ve found to defend against empty is to send heat and get the QB uncomfortable or run a cover 1 spy and utilize your spy to press the tight end or cover slot. Dime formation has some good plays to cover empty sets

[@NewEnglandSportsReview]

I started using Empty and always checked if it was man or zone by motioning either the WR/RB/TE. If it was man I would get my fastest WR in the slot the deep ball and lead to the outside towards the sideline: I fade the WR, drop back, and lead to the outside sort of like a corner route. If it is zone, I stay calm and collected in the pocket and find the opening. I always have at least two check down route if something was to go wrong. One route being a drag and one being a Screen, Slant, hitch. My go to route is always the slant depending on where the DB is lining up, if he is outside shading I am delivering a bullet. If that slant gets covered I roll out and either throw it away, take it and run, or force the ball somewhere safe.

[@scorpianbliz]

Dude, best Madden tutorial channel on YT...thanks for doing it 👌

[@johnhunt5005]

I’m a Steelers fan have use there playbook for the past few maddens and with Steelers go I like putting the outside wr on fades for outside release for bump and run coverage and leaving the seam on the right and putting the left slot on a go or a slant depending on the coverage and I have like 2,000 yards and 20 tds just from this play

[@asylumharborproductions3364]

Literally took your teachings and played my cousin who ive never beat, and wiped the floor with him.. even signed Kurt Benkert as my QB in Madden 23 franchise mode and had a day, 740 yards later.

[@KevinBeattie-i4b]

whenever I'm getting frustrated by the defense I just go empty set all verts and start dissecting the ish out of them. I figured this out back in 2010-2012 when I was writing a community college english paper on the New England Patriots spread offense. Still run NE offense. Although I used Seattle for a while till it lost my bread and butter Flood Sail play.

[@jeremiahgreer8379]

I actually wouldn't mind reading that paper. I loved playing Madden 11 (Drew Brees cover) with that playbook and how it had both 6 and 7 man protections and all 5 out in the same play in a variety of plays.

[@coachhotrod308]

[@KurtBenkert]

My dawg

[@CollattaQuad]

Now I get it. I was at the Jets games watching Zach Wilson play and I would be so angry at why they were playing empty so much when their o-line was garbage. It's bc ZW needs help reading defenses, but he never had the time bc he would get sacked. He was trying to be patient to let the plays develop. I understand why empty is good for young QBs, like CJ Stroud excelled bc he can throw with anticipation and his line gave him time to be patient in the pocket.

[@alonzopinedo6086]

Man I don’t even play madden but your videos are fun to watch 🔥

[@benjigunn1458]

DBs will follow across the field with motion even in zone...definitely a flaw in the programming...I run an empty with the slot running a corner and bring the outside receiver across the field...defender will follow and that entire zone is vacated

[@christorres9736]

Keep it up man! This is great

Can you explain the difference between man VS zone. Sometimes I have a slot wr switch sides, a corner moves with him, but it's still a form of zone.
