![(How To) Read Defense Like A Pro [Madden 24]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/N3ExO9haVVE/mqdefault.jpg)
Best break down I've seen on CZcams. Reading CB dept was giving me fits
Appreciate it bro!! Yeah, some people say they can make it work but I just don't think it's reliable enough
Absolutely Agree 👍
For ppl who read corners like me.
Cover 2 the corners play 5 yards back.
Cover 4 plays 8-10 yards
Cover 6 will have one side with a cover 4 look and the other with a cover 2 look.
Don't see cover 9 online, so I can't help you there lol
Much appreciated 💯 Thanks👍
These are all good tells for basic coverages...But for other coverages, cover 4 show 2, cover 3 buzz show 2, cover 6 show 2, cover 9 show 2, Tampa 2, nickel blitz 2, buck slant 3 show 2, etc....All look the same with suttle differances but are all lined up 5 yards off the ball
@@charlesrose7088 base Align cover 3 throws me off every time. But like I said, ppl make it easy when they play one coverage the entire game
Dang, this video helps a lot. I always use to either motion a receiver or look the cornerback depth to drtermine what defense they were running but now with this information I am golden. THANKS!!!!!
I love the time and effort you put into your video. You definitely deserve 1 mill by now
Appreciate it man, that really does mean a lot
Dude thanks so much for the flow chart. Went 30-10 on H2H, and then my opponents got noticeably harder and I’ve been losing a ton, now 39-33. I’ll be spending plenty of time using this in practice mode and referring to the flow chart to memorize it.
I'm glad it helped man!! I know it's not perfect, but just reading the CB alignment and single high safety can be huge for knowing what coverage is coming!
Love the content, appreciate the effort you put into these vids!
Appreciate it man!!!
Thank you Spruce needed this bad
Thank you!
Hey it's crazy I got to watch it a little more this is the best visual lesson
i was looking for a video like this yesterday, you too clutch 🔥
Appreciate it Reggie, I hope it helps!!
I wish madden would add in these tips somehow to your pre snap look and highlight routes that look good or something, like showing the zones when you check a run play. It should be a QB play recognition rating. Like if you played with Brady or it would be really accurate. I didn’t play football at a high level and don’t know these things but find it really interesting. I’d love to learn these things through madden.
Great video man. Love the chart as well
Appreciate it Kyle!
Thank you brother. Just what I was looking for 👍
Glad it helped!!
that chart is a life saver! i was about to screenshot a bunch of alignments😅
This was awesome video needed something like this 👍
Thanks Scorpio! Glad it helped
Man this video helps a lot, are you gonna drop an updated video for Madden 23
on 1 safety, which formation do you recommend because i have seen some with 2 receivers on one side and should be cover 1 with the slot corner being center but turning out cover 3.
Loved the format of this
Thanks Arnab!
spruce im sorry to tell you that you can tell if hes in man or zone in the 236 watch the left side db align lower when you motion over during man, but doesnt align as low during the zone. Dbs 2-4 yrds off the line are more than likely in man or cover 2 but dbs 5-9 yrds off are most likely in cover 3
Love your content. Making me a better player. How do you bring the run box up though? Mines is missing
Hey man! What combination of buttons are you pressing/holding?
I've been really trying to get this down and learn more about how to read the defence. How long did it take you spruce?
This is great. Flow chart is awesome!
Thanks Richard! I made the flowchart for myself initially to keep everything organized and then realized it could (hopefully) help everyone
I think you’re the only CZcamsrr to ever do a flow chart. Lol. Flow chart for the win! Good video.
LOL appreciate it man! I pretty much organize my life in spreadsheets and flowcharts, it keeps things organized 😂
I’m fairly new to this stuff so what exactly does the cover 1, 2, 3 etc mean
Awesome video, very informative plus the spreadsheet got a quick screenshot from me lol
Appreciate it Jason!! The flowchart is definitely a useful tool I hope people will use. And like I try to remind everyone in the video it's not always going to be perfect, but ever since getting comfortable reading the CB alignment it's made offense way easier
@@SpruceGooseTV yep, once I get into the habit of knowing what to look for it’ll help narrow down their defense usually like you said. Keep up the great content
Do you offer coaching sessions???
You're very quickly becoming my favorite CZcamsr
You have no idea how much that means to me man, I really appreciate it ❤️
It’s sad that this isn’t the case for Bunch. You’d literally have to learn every formation and how each coverage looks, that is A LOTTT of work to do. And even MORE work to REMEMBER. And even worse in close tight ball games.
I’m in practice mode in Cover 4 Show 2 literally lines up on the outside of the outer WR lol. And the safety didn’t move so it could be Cover 2, 3, or 4. I’m gonna try 335 and see if I get the same results
I still struggle to identify what my opponent is in. Alot of defenses are already disguised like the cover 3's with two high safeties or cover 2 show cover 4 and stuff like that. I try to pay attention to how my own players are aligned just to get used to seeing and understanding how the players align and react. I wish practice mode wasn't so slow and tedious. Reading just about every defenses base alignment isn't hard but there's so many formations that you really have to make post snap reads to understand what defense it is. Madden is a very deep game.
Cover 4 Show 2 will also give the same Tampa 2 look.
Sprucegoosetv can you or anyone make a Post Snap read video please? Because sometimes when you do see 2 high safeties then after you hike the ball one of them close the middle of the field so now it becomes a cover 1 or 3 coverage...
So I'd really appreciate a post snap video. Thank you. Happy Holidays
Hey Scorpio! Sorry I didn't respond sooner, that's an excellent question. I'll definitely write it down to see if it could be a video, but I think the best way to improve post-snap is simply getting lots of reps in. I try to stick to a few fundamental route concepts where I always know where my receivers will be, and having that comfort with the route combos really helps for when the defense post-snap ends up different than what I expected
@@SpruceGooseTV Thank you and Ok I'll definitely keep that In Mind. Happy 2022 When It comes to you and your family. 🙏 #Blessings
this here is a CERTIFIED CHEAT bro....THANK YOU!!!! haha! Just ELEVATED my madden game to a whole 'nother level....YOU'RE A GENIUS BRO...CHEERS!
This is a grade A explanation video!
Thank you man!!
Good vid
Thank you Markel!
I run everything bombs and hope lol there's a golden ticket down there somewhere hahaha
Hay is there way to download that chart you made
Screenshot it!
What about cover 4…?
I've been using corner back depth for years. Just used to it. Would be tougher if ppl didn't spam the same defense all game long
Very true, if they don't change up their coverage then it makes it a whole lot easier!
can’t know what coverage i’m in if I run punt block!
Hey wait a sec...
I guess I'll have to make a Part 2
Has this man ever blinked...
Nope
How I suppose to read from tight formation?
Actually it's much harder and almost impossible at least for me it is.... Your best bet is spread formations.
Doubles Y Off formations
Y off wk formations
Basically anything that the WR are not close to each other
I noticed in the motion piece even though the WR doesn't follow him in man the CB comes down alot tighter to the LOS than he did in zone when you motioned

how bout for m 20
