Effectively Beating F@G D?????????????

Today i played the number 2 guy on madden xbox 360 HeaD SHOTz xSNM, i have to admit my stick skills way more superior but his defense is what got him the win. Before going into the game i knew he was going to F@G D me his blitz percentage is 5.2. I drove down the field very easy on the chargers, I had 3 rocket catches for about 60 yards and then i punched it in with marion, hb direct.

His defense after this was a combination of man and F@G..... He would man up my outside WR who i RC with, Zone the middle and still have people on the screen and flats.....

I DONT KNOW HOW THIS WAS POSSIBLE BUT I ENDED UP THROWING 4 PICKS AND LOST BY ABOUT 14 OR 20 (NOTE cromartie did run two tds in from screen plays after beating D Ware and K Hamlim BS!!!.

How DO YOU COMBAT F@G D???????????????

Excuse my ignorance but what is the F@g D I have seen it referenced on more then one post and I have yet to see a explanation.

Try to stay out of long yardage situations and run all over their azz. With a good run game, you can average 8-10 yard per carry against someone who stays in a F@G D.

Yup... Just run draws and pound him. U need to force him out of it. Do drags and s*** as well and hit ur hb's on angle routes in the soft spot of the zone. Runs slot screens or hb screens. Come in compressed formations and flood a zone.

An example is running man D and dropping all your lineman back in coverage

if he plays f@g D it means there is little pressure... roll out the pocket or sit there and i promise someone WILL GET OPEN

i have no sympathy for a guy who's offense revolves around RC and HB direct

haha HB direct =/

He ran Fag D because you ran a FAG Offence. I think HB direct is ok if you use it a few times a game but if RC and HB direct is your whole offence then you got what u deserved.

get outta ur cheesy offense and play real football and he'll have to change his def.

if he ran f@g d, why would you keep passing? that makes absolutely no sense to me. obviously, running lanes will be wide open. i'm really confused why you would continue to try to pass into f@g d, just do a regular running play.

RUN THE BALL

Thanks Trav

I find it funny that you dont like my offensive play style but your a user on maddenschool.com......... Most threads are about NANO's and RC or Money Plays.. all of which dont discriminate on playing styles.. As far as the Direct Snap (not a glitch) can be stopped so its fair play.. I only use it in short yardage situations. RC can also be stopped. My offense doesnt really revolve around anything except zone defense. I live to destroy zones etc...

Since you want to make assumptions here are mine... your a saints fan/user... probably run every play with reggie to flats, reggie off screens, even reggie in wildcat (which i think is cheese because of increase block success and double team blocks).. And if all that fails then you go ahead and put it all on drew brees aka hard as **** to pic off when you precision bullet or bomb; because of accuracy ratings....

ay halljam.. we have a sim section on this site bruh!!! sim players dont RC or run nanos.. just cuz sum do and post the plays, dont mean everyone on this site RCs and nanos..

only time id find fag d successful is on 3rd and long or 3rd and 7+ inside the redzone when u r pinned in ur endzone.. i mean u always can get those pass happy players that never run..

Pardon my ignorance... But all i was trying to say is that the majority of people do... For example in the regular madden section there are over ~49,000 posts, SIM section= 341
that means the total percentage of sim player to Nano/RCers is less than 1% Approximately 0.00641...

And for all the people that claim this and that... I can play both ways send me a invite and ill prove it..

so everyone thats not sim RCs and nanos? what bout the ppl who run QB draw all game or HBDS?? not everyone that doesnt RC or nano is considered "sim".. so u just cant make that generalization.. and i mean yea theres a sim section but its not like the sim players on this site dont post in the regular madden general talk sections and s***.. not every thread is a RC or nano..
