In another thread, the idea of defensive 1 gap vs 2 gap play came up. I've generally found it difficult to employ gap concepts in previous versions of madden due to the fact that the AI never seemd to stress the importance of "getting across the face" of an offensive lineman. Is this something that EA actively tweaked in 2010?
Also, point of fact, in 1 gap systems, LB's and Secondary often (ahem) fill gaps based on flow, I've toyed with simulating this by playing primarily zone defenses on running downs and "doubling" the FB AND the HB With some combination of LB's and Safeties. Thank goodness for custom play memory.
btw what's the best way to lab defense in practice mode?
I do like the fact that often when guard and such pull that many of the LB will "shoot the gap" i hadn't noticed this in prior versions is THIS new to Madden?
