The Most Frustrating Coverage Defense in Madden 24

[@chria158]

What I hate about madden is that I should be able to easily run against this but somehow they’ll blockshed and stop the run in the backfield

[@thenickfoxx]

yeah bro it's so weird how dollar is a top 3 run defense lmao

[@barryjohnson9976]

That's because someone on the d line has a special ability such as inside stuff ... it's challenging running on teams like Kansas city because of chris Jones and the rams because of Aaron Donald

[@bigmoose_1580]

do more outside runs or shift your oline to the side your running so when a quick hole opens then u can get threw and drive for yards

[@robbwaller]

Great vid! I won a lot of games with your Tight Doubles scheme last year. Keep up the good work my dude!

[@thenickfoxx]

one of the best madden youtubers ive come across explaining things clearly. This is very helpful.

[@Swolosimo]

This means a lot Nick. Thank you.

[@khristopherinman]

@swolosimo great vid , if they hurry up on offense , will it turn off our match defense ? Or mess up the zone drops , cus I noticed when they hurry up my defense gets bombed on and I’m like how if match is on

[@johnstamosyt8337]

Great video!

[@travisoshea]

The shallow is wide open FIB. Unless the user controls that? Also, with a TITE front no why would anyone have the RB pass pro. The rail would get open or bring that FIB corner up and the shallow comes open. Do not do these adjustments. Run match press quarters and MEG the weak side CB n user the FS

[@Swolosimo]

Hey Oshee, there is no coverage shell that will cover every single route in the game. This video was meant to show one that will do a fantastic job at taking away the majority of deep routes while giving you the flexibility to add more adjustments or user shallow crossing routes. I can assure you cover 4 quarters is incredibly easy to beat.

[@eazy1424]

What formation is this cover 6 match in ?

[@Swolosimo]

Dollar 3-2

[@eazy1424]

Do you run this the same way vs trips ? And is every cover 6 match ?

[@BrothaSistaDuo]

How do I defend the upper middle of the field?

[@Swolosimo]

With this defense the upper middle will be matched by your inside quarter.

[@pcycr2543]

i was using this it for some reason it wasn’t working i was confused on this concept

[@arg2smooth]

Hey man, great video. I just have a slight problem with this defense. For me, it is incredibly ineffective against the run. I have ran this defense for a few weeks and it is phenomenal at covering the pass, but there is always a wide open hole for the QB to run through and for the running-back to go through. It is also very hard to stop stretch in this. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you.

[@Swolosimo]

Ofcourse to make this better run d try to bring your safeties down into the box and pinch and crash you defensive line down.

[@arg2smooth]

@@Swolosimo Thank you man!

[@boxingsm.v.p8714]

swol the on the vertical the x receiver was wide open up the seam,the other two play coverages were a1..

[@Swolosimo]

You can easily adjust to cover this by manning up the slot corner. Your user is also free to cover it.

[@boxingsm.v.p8714]

@@Swolosimo I did and it worked just great,thank you..

[@b.e.r.nnetwork8251]

Honestly if it's an equal game or I'm not down by a lot having a gameplan where it's balanced is perfect.

[@agotto12]

Any way to defend the inside corner route from kelce in match out of bunch? Got to the semi’s on players lounge tourney and opponent started throwing over top the Mable with the third receiver.

[@Swolosimo]

The super deep one in bunch str offset?

[@agotto12]

@@Swolosimo yup, my 30 and deep third was getting toasted

[@THEMANMINDSET1971]

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD DAMN THIS IS FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Swolosimo]

You’re damn right!

[@FadedBycjj]

what playbook are thos offensive plays in

[@Swolosimo]

Multiple D or 46 or KC and many others.

[@daeztenmahiai9223]

🫣 swolo upload. We need MORE

[@Ewing609]

@swolo does your tight doubles scheme have any match beaters?

[@Swolosimo]

Yes it does!

[@Unsealed_Prods]

Would cover 4 drop work the same? Does it have match principles built into it?

[@Swolosimo]

I wish. Cover 4 drop would not work the same.

[@jacksonrodgers1625]

Ik im late to this video but can this stop the run?

[@Swolosimo]

If you pinch you DL you will always have solid run d.

[@TommyBoyHustle]

Do you need to turn match on or just keep it on default?

[@HatedEggs]

Match

[@Swolosimo]

It actually will work regardless, in my testing. (Match or no match) Just make sure your zone drops are set.

[@sergiohampton3032]

In what world does the qb have enough time to throw a pass to the late crossing receiver from the mesh spot play? Even when i max protect i cant get a throw off that late in the route. Are you kidding me? No one rushes two lineman

[@b.e.r.nnetwork8251]

I love playing defense but honestly the way the computer defends rpo's is stupid. A slot corner will chase a running back that is going towards the opposite side of the field instead of the bubble screen wide out that's right in front of them. I use rpo's here and there but honestly if they don't fix this then take rpo's out of the game because that logic is stupid. Linebackers are always responsible for the back not a corner.

[@Akem923]

What defensive formations are these from?

[@Swolosimo]

Dollar 3-2

[@AmirAbdullah]

Just curious players who throw the ball before the match happens left guys open, how are you dealing with that ? Guys were open in your example and in regs I’m playing guys seeing the open wr and dotting them .

[@Swolosimo]

In what example?

[@AmirAbdullah]

@@Swolosimo I don’t wanna blow up the spot but at 6:02 on the shot seems play if the defender doesn’t take that he’s open. I don’t use Mable and I should and I suppose it’s even better than the cloud defense it was known as years ago. But it should be known some empty sets cause major confusion with this even with the numbers concept over eligible pass catchers because it puts as many pass catchers in space as defenders. Especially with some route combinations. I ain’t saying this don’t work because you had to be old enough to remember which sets and plays do that and I promise 99% of all Madden users don't remember or know unless the pregame adjustments glitches those out and I didnt know and yall did. In that case my point is mute. but yeah is that the users man at 6:02 ? and the example prior the inside pass or freeform to the back early in the play before the match switches are you guys expecting drops to hapoen ?

[@AmirAbdullah]

@@Swolosimo @4:36 he’s open for a back shoulder , at that point what are you guys expecting to happen, I’m talking the first time he catches that pass or are you expecting the zones to close in on that pass and cause a breakup ?

[@bigwigg5562]

Great content. Could you call cover 9 vs this formation?

[@Swolosimo]

I don't believe so.

[@mstevens6723]

LOVE THIS. could you real quick tell me the coverages thatll keep the matching principles. Cover 6, cover 4 standard but not drop. Any others? Also does the package matter or is it kostly dependant on coverage type

[@Swolosimo]

cover 6, cover 4 quarters only

[@travisoshea]

You can run match out of cover 3 too.

[@SC-fh7nt]

@@travisosheaand cover 4 palms

[@travisoshea]

@@SC-fh7nt yep. Works better there.

[@Kbn1985]

Won't they all match if you just coach adjust to zone match?

[@joshshaffer5503]

I’ve been running a cover 6 similar to this and Rpos since 23 starting to wonder if I’m the Meta

[@Swolosimo]

You might be! This cover 6 is actually not very meta as few players understand the logic explained in this video.

[@danbanks007]

Default or base

[@Swolosimo]

Base

[@tjnetworksystemscash]

Absolutely confusing!!

[@damontpittman253]

WHY THIS GAME NEVER HAS A FOUR MAN PASS RUSH? THEY WANT EVERYONE TO HAVE A CHANCE TO WIN.

[@gabesavage112]

You crazy I get four man pressure

[@Kinggbennett]

What play book

[@Swolosimo]

I think multiple d is the best playbook with it.
