What is the BEST defense to use when playing MADDEN25?

Thanks for reading! When your playing a tuff opponent this year in MADDEN25, what Defense is the best to use and what adjustments should you make?

Well im going to try and give you the best answer as possible.

This year Comeback routes and off tackle run plays seem to be the KEY offensive plays to run.

Your opponent will try to hit you on the sideline a lot, you know when your in that rank match and keep seeing the same things over and over. Yup been there done that!

So what do you do? What defense do you run?

On sideline comeback routes, try to first and foremost get "HEAT"  on the quarter back with the DE or DB but make sure that your lineup is set up right with the best players on the field.

Its NOT always about the teams overall rating, but its who you have on the field and at what postion.

I found that Zone Defense does not play to tough but can work at times so I go with man to man defense and normally put a DE into the purple zone and man up the 2 man under with man to man with the two safeties covering the WR on both sides of the field.

Now have to pick and choose which player you are going to user with.

Always keep a QB SPY on in case your opponent decides he got WHEELS and wants to run with the Quarterback.


If you do decide to go with zone defense, don't be predictable, use a HYBRID defense as @sgibs7 and @maddenbible talk about on there show "TWIM" over at www.maddenbible.com they give out great tips. Follow them on twitter!

Always have your audibles set before you even enter a online rank match because most people wont give you the time to set them up.

Be Quick when making Hot Routes on Defense as your opponent is gonna "QUICK SNAP YOU"!

Cover 3 is a good defense with Hot Routing the DE on either side of the ball to try to slow down the sideline routes. But be careful and make sure your zone of play in the middle is covered!

Hope you liked the tips and be sure to watch the videos below for some live game play footage vs. A1RJORDAN from www.maddentips.com. This was a tight ball game. Notice how he ran his offense and the adjustments I used to slow him down!
