In this video, ZAN breaks down how to stop Bunch offenses and other 1x3 offenses using the "Smart Shell" Zone coverage; a coverage ZAN deems one of the best in Madden 23.

algorithm. dude just with a video you made 500k cards got to a million. you really are the man zan keep it up

[@LBxType1]

Incredibly unique content, appreciate it

[@Mizza2143]

One of the best converage tip videos bro... much repsect. Feel like im running Alabama cover 7 with with this stuff lol.

[@ThaFean57]

Loving all these over g videos its my favorite formation

[@ZANmadden]

Thank you! Me too! I think it's the best defense vs. Bunch and Tight to be honest.

[@muhammadjava240]

sometimes when i put the solo cloud in a 3rd, he will back up himself from his alignment and actually not super press, any work around for this other than showing blitz? i do it out of bnog

[@MattyLo_952]

Great video zan. Been using this since Feb and it has helped for sure. U are killing the content game

[@jeantriplett2394]

Theres a defensive play in the nickel odd, called linebacker cross blitz and its a zone match blitz, this defense can actually act as smart shell because the outside dB is already programmed to press the solo wr vs trips and there is this 3 rec hook which the fs plays, seems like the safety always finds the running back first,but when the rb blocks, the safety is useless, he stares in lala land without helping....Im going to employ manning the rb so if rb blocks, it activates another assignment

Just got on GGP a little over a week ago. Still trying to learn all the match and NOG defense. Heads swimming! Good stuff!

[@putnams1000]

Zan... you the man!

[@ZANmadden]

No, YOU the man! Thanks for the support as always.

[@joshuauribe]

Banger as usual!

[@ny.joe_yt]

I have to be honest, I’ve been a hater but I respect your dedication and your tips because it does carry the competitive side of madden. You are the top guy in my opinion for madden tips.

[@ayestokes]

great vid ! if RB blocks, will FS zone abilities work then ?

[@zwill641]

Im havin a hard time on defense care to help me with any tips? Cuz usually when i do change my defense players spam and exploit thru it i dont like usering because most of the time other routes are open

[@mrhumble2937]

Must of missed the super prese thing. Do you have to shade underneath?

[@803rockboi2]

Will this stop streaks. Streaks are killing me.

[@mrhumble2937]

I like to scissor solo side but when they motion to that side sucks.

[@BDW0000]

What about 3x2 or empty

[@coryhall7650]

CAN YOU PLEASE DO A VIDEO TO STOPPING THE RPO ALERT BUBBLE COMING FROM THE RB. THE MOTION RB BUBBLE

[@cloudtoclear]

Can you double super press on both ends of the field?

[@TheSUPERburrito99]

Hell yeah dude, can't wait tobtryvit!

[@ZANmadden]

Awesome! Thanks for the support burrito!

[@mjeezy-mp1rb]

How do we stop slant routes out of tight formations zan? Please

[@DreSmithJr]

If we put the CHUCK OUT ability on that cb that is doing the delayed press.. how nasty does that get? lol. m21 vibes

[@jbrockthamc659]

Great video! Question tho, is the safety dropping into a third because of the CB to his side being in a third or is that the stock rule for Madden

[@ZANmadden]

Stock

@@ZANmadden Preciate the response! I’ll catch you on Twitch later

[@djthunder6]

Wow setup might take some time to get used to but great work

[@ZANmadden]

You'll get used to it. Just muscle memory.

[@Livlaughlurk]

Is it possible to run this out of a quarters or palms play to have the box check or special check for the 3 receiver side?

[@ZANmadden]

Yes.

[@Livlaughlurk]

@@ZANmadden thanks!

Bruh can somebody hire you as defensive coordinator.

[@ZANmadden]

I'd love to coach eventually. I get that outlet through Madden currently! Thanks for the kind words!

[@quentonstein-ec8xq]

@@ZANmadden yes I could be a coach to I love the game of football.

I've been subscribed for 2 years now. I don't have any vault content. Hope you can help.

[@jaybru4916]

To bad ea don't make simulation football seriously you think a wr would run straight into a CB 5 yards off the line to get pressed lol. The corner would get destroyed almost every time in real life lol not knocking the player just the game but this is not how real life football works smh.
