The same thing was happening to me and I adjusted…started throwing the high ball and my completion % went up significantly…not sure if the mechanics in Madden had me throwing a certain way in CFB25 but I’m very happy with the end result!
Probably his sliders at 100 I would guess, 90% of the catches in this video my receivers NEVER would have caught in my dynasty and I have WR catching at 75 lol
I've been having a lot of success with 3-3 Nickel Over Cover Brackets where the high safeties double WR1 and WR2. Leaves a lot of room for audible and adjustments (e.g. Safety and Corner blitz, put a DL in QB SPY, Drop a DL in mid zone coverage, you name it). I usually shade underneath as the WRs are doubled, and, if you have a team that's good in man and/or play a team with slower WR, the initial CB will disrupt those quick passes and the Safety is waiting. Ensure the RB and TE are covered decently enough in their matchups, of course, but the field is practically in disarray once they get to the end zone. Plus, the shade under helps prevent the QB from escaping if somehow you mess up. Know the depth chart, know the matchups, and it works 9/10 for me. Has me at the best RZ % on Defense in my dynasty
Also, this is very similar to Cover 2 that OP said, but I wanted to comment this as 1) specifies Nickel for extra corner, and 2) prevents some people from audibling one safety and forgetting the other one/not having enough time
Lmao, dude cant even show how to high ball across the middle because LB #1 is broken in the coverage every single play. This game is honestly garbage…its so sad
FACTS it's still on the frostbite engine as with Madden they're both kiddy like and if they made a realistic sim then ppl like us wouldn't complain but the goofies and Madden apologist would cry😢😂😂
IMO, it’s still night and day better than Madden. It’s currently the best football simulation game on the market. Yea, there is some unrealistic bs that happens from time to time but all in all, the gameplay is very enjoyable.
it would be fun to play, BUT....EA won't let some of us. This week I was banned for 3 days. I disputed the nonsensical ban and it was finally overturned. Then one day later, the servers are unavailable 100% of the time so I can't play the game at all. I paid for a game that EA won't even let me play. The level on nonsense from tech companies in 2024 is angering as hell. And of course they employ no human beings so there is ZERO customer support.
Bro I did not know they had the high/low ball feature!!!!!! I’ve been throwing so many picks in RTG wtffff 🤬🤬 I thought they didn’t put that feature in smh omg smh lol
For stopping the run, if you have adjust your coverage to underneath, will that have all your DBs not backpedal first? I notice when you make that adjustment, it changes the deep LB/CB purple zones to switch to hard flats.
I wondered why my QB seemed to sometimes throw a low ball, even when I had plenty of time to load up on the X button for a deep pass. It's been frustrating the he!! out of me. The last time I played was on the old NCAA 2006 or something and don't remember a high-ball passing function.
Love videos like these. The red zone and run defense tips are good. I accomplish the same idea out of the cover 4. It adds a bit more to your tips IMO while covering much more against the pass, especially deep. But we accomplish basically the same idea in the same scenarios.
Can you explain how to pull-up the play zone and assignments menu when on the field and go in-depth on what adjustment to make depending on the scenario ? Thanks
Tampa 2? No Cover 2 sucks against the run because it hard sells on the pass If your opponent knows you're in Cover 2, prepare for them to audible and run on you Red Zone defense when playing in Play Now is a gamble If your D Line doesn't block shed, the QB easily scrambles for a touchdown if nobody is open How you play defense in this game is you figure out your opponents tendencies and adjust coverages to force them to snap out of their habits Civil likes Tampa 2 in the red zone as he's used to people trying to throw over the middle, but if someone always throws fades to the sidelines, then maybe you pick a different base coverage
You’ve got to do it on the non in-game menu. While in the game that is considered an in-game sub and won’t be carried from game to game. If out of a game go to your depth chart and change it there for it to carry over.
@@IkeTN let’s say I’m calling a cover 3cloud or something my cb who should be on the z receiver will line up on the x receiver then try to run across the field to get to his zone leaving my cover blown
The new update for this game has made me seriously not like it anymore. I used to love playing a few games of Road to the CFB Playoff every night but now I’m thinking of never touching the game again. My receivers can’t catch balls thrown to them when they’re wide open. I can’t strong pitch the option anymore without the ball glitching. My plays that used to work don’t work anymore. I can’t stop the run even though I know it’s coming and know how to stop the run.
They nerfed my entire offense. You can't pitch right anymore. You can't stop the run, so much so they can come out in goalie and you run commit and they break through. My guys are literally wide open, I throw it and the dB sneezes by them and they drop it. My opponents are awarded every 50/50 ball. Most of them run 3 plays all game and think it's a "scheme." Seriously had the absolute worst time in champs this weekend I don't even wanna play this anymore. And they'll inevitably take a month for any new update to address these issues. For context I went 16-3 last week in champs and was dominating so it's not like EVERYONE just figured this shit out this week.
Not to mention you get lacy, and they can press him into the dirt and he can't run by 86-87 speed corners. Oh that's right I can spend 3 ap for my 90 speed wr so he can MAYBE get open on a streak vs some bum dB....jesus

Since the last few updates defense has been Soo much better than what it was in the beginning and the defense plays way better than Madden right now 🤷🏾♂️
been driving me crazy QB underthrowing the ball into an interception when my receiver has 5 yards on the DB.. gonna try the high ball!

Nah sometimes no matter what they make the qb over throw or under for no reason especially in hostel environments
13:31 First time I've ever been told that
How does your receivers not drop the ball? Every. Single. Time I throw a high ball he drops it after contact
I was saying the same thing watching

Hold A (Xbox) to catch instead of Y unless you have a receiver with 50/50 trait
Possession catch by holding A (on Xbox)

How do you get no delay when hot routing?

What is the difference between MATCH and ZONE coverages that are exactly the same in name besides Match/Zone?
Cameron Centers
Ferry Valleys
You switch back to placement and accuracy from revamp 20/20???
What are your sliders set to, and what is your setting for leading receivers (short, medium, or long)?
Does high balling work on fades too? Or should you just do a normal throw if your receiver has a step on the corner?
For stopping the run, if you have adjust your coverage to underneath, will that have all your DBs not backpedal first? I notice when you make that adjustment, it changes the deep LB/CB purple zones to switch to hard flats.
Would love to see a video on using the R1/RB punch when making gang tackles
you pinched the d line everytime the double was supposed to be working on the contain. does it still work without the d line pinching?

Subscribed. My man Form always speaks highly about your content
I subscribed because of the high ball tip
Do you double team the dline everytime your throwing or no?
The Tampa 2 play in the red zone, does it typically defend well against runs out of shotgun? Or even I-Formations/Singleback?
Tampa 2? No Cover 2 sucks against the run because it hard sells on the pass
If your opponent knows you're in Cover 2, prepare for them to audible and run on you
Red Zone defense when playing in Play Now is a gamble
If your D Line doesn't block shed, the QB easily scrambles for a touchdown if nobody is open
How you play defense in this game is you figure out your opponents tendencies and adjust coverages to force them to snap out of their habits
Civil likes Tampa 2 in the red zone as he's used to people trying to throw over the middle, but if someone always throws fades to the sidelines, then maybe you pick a different base coverage
Love the shirt 🤘

This doesn't pertain to the video but why isn't it saving my depth chart? I'm having to set it at the beginning of each game. Is their a glitch?

@@ChildishCambinno I've done that also.and it's still not saving it.
Does anyone run into a problem when playing zone, your defense act like there playing man coverage and leave there zone? (Not running match)
Yes they line up in man with their zone being on the complete other side of the field it Only in the hurry up &’ only after the update
