In this video, ZAN breaks down the Gun Bunch Str Offset/Gun Bunch X Nasty Str formations and the plays known as Dagger and Y Trail. You can use these to beat man coverage or zone coverage.

[@seanmclaughlin9283]

I watched all three days of the Madden bowl. Yes, you right those two plays got spammed. Don't forget about the double corners, everyone was using that as well.

[@michaelverdine2160]

Love the quick Q&A in the comments. Smart.

[@joncappo7297]

Good good stuff

[@killabeekill1778]

I used to run the trail in strong close back in the day 🤣 It was lethal then

[@ZANmadden]

Those stutter fades were pretty good at getting behind zone coverage in beating man, I remember!

[@StayCool302]

Henry was was throwing dots with that dagger play against drini. He rarely Hot routed it too

[@seanmclaughlin9283]

When it comes to Madden, Henry is him, bro.

[@iwasrel0ading138]

Crazy cause we been using it to

[@billsmith2187]

Can you do a blocking video especially vs 61! Love the content!

[@jaquino451]

I use the west cost offense it's really the offense I can use effectively

[@redalert9121]

U A BAD AZZ 👍🏾

[@xadengomez1142]

bro i can not stop trips te flex all i know how to do is double mable tbh what other coverages and adjustments would you recommend i usually run outta dollar or 6-1 in cheifs formation

[@iLostMyParents]

Whats the best way to user block shed for run D?

[@canyoncartwright9238]

Is box check in the game ever going to get fixed?

[@Enfinant]

With the different zone drops what players you put on cloud flats and curl flats?

[@ZANmadden]

I'm a fan of
Flats 30
Curl Flats 5

[@mstevens6723]

I doubt it cause, challenging a play is not accurate in madden BUT, if you were to catch the ball on the sideline hash marks and its knocked out but the game credits you the catch anyway, would a challenge reverse it? Im assuming not?

[@chr1sgaps]

single back wing stop the rpo out of that. was getting absolutely beat up in a superbowl game and Ive always stopped it before but that game was different

[@ZANmadden]

I have plans to do a comprehensive RPO defense video here within the next week

[@chr1sgaps]

@@ZANmadden okay cool thank you

[@da_hit_stick]

I need to work on defending goaline/2-pt plays

[@ZANmadden]

Goalline D = 43 Even 61 Pinch and Crash DL down. User MLB over the C, set purples to 0. Stops every run (Sneak, FB Dive, Power O) and any throws to the flat. User the rest, send the 0 yard purple vs QB scramble off PA

[@doc1801]

#BearDown what do you think we are going to do with the #1 pick ?

[@TWProductions90]

Would dagger work the same way in bunch y flex with the back side speed in and the crosser?

[@ZANmadden]

Similar but this TE route in dagger is available to the QB sooner vs pressure and in a slightly more shallow area of the field.

[@realbiggamikebiggamike306]

Zan do you think 3 glowing x-factor on the d-line is too much or should I put on CBs

[@ZANmadden]

2 is good. 3 seems like overkill with some of the other X-Factors you can take advantage of (spoiler: Kam's SB Past item, for instance)

[@eli_thabandit772]

Man zan how do you stop this the plays are destroying me is man the best with press

[@Themrajester2]

U should make a popular rpo, alert counter vid

[@ZANmadden]

Which RPO?

[@terrelljoyner4]

Whats best way to defend Utrips or trips formations

[@ZANmadden]

I like Cover 3 Cloud with the CB in the cloud on the trips side as my template D. Adjust to tendency from there.

[@OG_EJayy]

off topic can you have match and zone drops on at the same time?

[@ZANmadden]

You can! I don't have the link on hand right now but I will try to find it and reply to you. If you go back in my channel and search for coverage related tips, you will find it

[@saml5645]

What he said lol watch the video very helpful

[@ShadowXMadden]

All u gotta do is blitz it and force them to throw it before the reads open

[@ZANmadden]

Oh that's all?

[@ShadowXMadden]

@@ZANmadden pretty much. If you know where to send the blitz from. I usually blitz from a stock alignment so you don't know who's coming.

[@Kota2times]

Do you know the setup for 3-3 nickel a gap non man version ?

[@ZANmadden]

Most players are running it out of the nickel blitz zero and changing everything into zone

[@JahJahishere]

How do i run spinner out of dollar like comp do?

[@JahJahishere]

Whats the best freeform passing setting to start off on

[@ssh31590]

Staying in zone to defeat these spam plays is a waste of time. Gotta use hybrid coverage out of dollar or a similar dime formation.

[@ZANmadden]

There are definitely pure zone (drops) setups that lock this down w/o manning anyone up.

[@jamesjamm993]

How do you stop the single back qb rollout I had someone spamming it every play throwing a corner route it was open every time no matter the defense I played

[@ZANmadden]

Set a defender to a 0 yard depth on curl flat and click in the right analog stick to "send the spy" (zone closest to scramble) when they roll out

[@d2steeler97]

I suck but yr welcome

[@Gmoney7173]

Yeah and I’m tired of the sh*^% lol

[@GrindStarr]

First

[@ZANmadden]

Thanks for watching!

[@Philipp19911]

I like your free content but your premium membership is a really not wort it. You pay 10$ and get only a handful of videos with content you find on yt anyway. I would expect to at least get something that I can download and read to prepare my games or practice. Maybe some graphics where you cover different variations of plays. To just find videos was a little dissatisfying, but maybe its just me.

[@emarquez8604]

You're literally only paying 10 dollars pal

[@Bankrollsleeves]

Madden comp is a cheese fest, bad for football

[@mitchellcadman4185]

Not watching although I know you got credit for the click. You cheese people ruined the game. In reality NFL defenses and coaches would be all over a same play ran 2-3 times or over and over. Comp games should have play cooldowns and play limits. I say this understanding that hot routes can basically make the same play but this cheese is old and moldy, where is the bathroom 🤮

[@clokwize5311]

This isn't the NFL. It's a video game. If you don't enjoy it, don't play.
