I only use this formation. Fun fact, The 46 defence is called that because the 85' bears needed a linebacker and they had a safety who was built like a mini linebacker and his number was 46
I found this defense last year and as soon as I opened Madden 18 I went into Jaguars defensive playbook to make sure it was still there. Great video with interesting options on the 4-6 invert
I can't believe people are actually getting mad at you for putting out content when they need to "find it out themselves". Thank you for helping some players who are ok at the game but don't truly understand everything to be considered one of the top players. Not everybody has the time to sit down and play video games all day. I subbed about a week ago but I was scrolling through the comments and I couldn't believe what I was reading so I just had comment on here.
I'm from England and play Madden, ive always been an average player, normally stick to CPU as i know ill suck online, thanks for making these videos EricRayweather
Thanks for exposing my favorite defense now everyone will run it I've been running the speed package for the last 4 years since it's already out there the inside Blitz Baseline and man the free safety on the receiver that has no one covering it run the left side linebacker position and shoot the Gap and you will get almost immediate pressure
Why are they bums, cause they aren't as advanced at the game? What about kids who are picking up Madden for the first time? Why is it frowned upon to get help? Have you never TH-camd how to do something in life? I'm sure you have. Are you a bum because you didn't know exactly how to do something before somebody showed you? It's terrible logic.
I have to say this last thing this Defense isn't easy to beat but if you find a way to beat it you will gain chunks of yardage if you select the right play to run on the offense but against a Vet that's using the right team it's still very hard to be this Defensive coverage
The 4-4 defense also has a cover 2 invert. It's literally the same thing only the 2 DE are in a QB contain instead of just a basic rush. Really good for QB contain obviously but also outside runs
yo i tried this but i seem to be getting beat deep down the middle i consider myself a good user but ross speedy wr or hill kills me not sure what im doing wrong alot of verticles and such beating me on the invert
You just gotta adjust. Back off your coverage if you're getting beat deep for one. Come out in Cover 3 if you're getting beat deep as well. And just worry about covering the shallow middle.
New subscriber.... it's not letting me "speed package". That particular selection is not available when I'm switching. It says things like cb swap lb swap???
what's the best defensive playbook for this? Ideally I'd like to have the 3-4 odd with the cover 4 and the 46 + the nickel where everyone is up on the line. Thoughts?
Yo if I preorder the standard edition on PS4 and wanted to upgrade to the G.O.A.T. Edition would I have to pay $80 dollars instead of just 20? I ordered it off PlayStation store.
Im in australia and i dont really understand nfl. I played my first online game and lost 43-0 . I cant get my head around all the little things and the lingo. Good game though.
in defense remember that a cover 2 means you are covering with two DEEP safeties, which is a good d for short yardage, stuff where they aren't trying to throw the ball deep. A cover 3 is more like a 3&5 defense, with three people covering deep, a cover 4 is more like a 3&10-15 yard defense, with FOUR people playing deep zones. Tell me if you need more help
What's funny is people probably won't believe me but I was like the First player in Playing Madden online that used this Defense and alot of cats copied it I learned this D playing madden on Ps2 in use the Ravens alot and this D would help Ed Reed get a ton of Ints but when Madden online came to ps4 I used it with the Seahawk and killed I skipped over ps3 madden because it was trash to play lol
You have to have the players to run this defense, which only certain teams fit in ranked play. Most folks are not going to be able to run this successfully, takes a certain mentality in the game and the whole point of the 46 is pressure,not cross manning and the rest of that BS.But go ahead continue to set up your subs for failure trying to run this online while I'm on the other side killing them with screens and double tight end formations runs.
+TripleM__QGTM the best madden players in the world run this. But sure, I'm setting them up for failure. It's a video game first, real football principles don't always apply. Screens are easy for any decent player to stop, just manually guard it.
The best Madden players in the world can user like crazy and make adjustments on the fly in seconds,most casual cannot.The 46 needs pressure to work, that's why there is so many players in the box, to apply immediate pressure,shut down all gaps,and cause confusion. You do need certain team(s) to run this,player ratings and tendencies play a part,this year more than ever. Pros also more often then not send heat , which again is a principle of running that defense. But go ahead sir, continue to tell me what doesn't apply. I use the 46 as my playbook and have for the last 5-6 years, not just for the latest defensive formation that's hot at the tournaments. I also don't use the speed package, ever. Thanks.
That's some crazy shit Ray! When you user a man and you don't control him your player just stands there. I got burnt by wide receivers so many times like that and I didn't know what was happening until I replayed the play and noticed my user wasn't movin. So this year are you forced to actually control a user? How can you disable users until you want to use it?
You have to adjust to stop the post routes. And to be honest, post routes are killing everything right now. Zones just play bad. I didn't say this will stop everything, I said it's the best defensive formation. You gotta adjust behind it to stop what your opponent is doing.
I can always use some pointers! . Just because he shows us the formation you still have to execute it.. I'm still learning how to user.. I've been playing for a few years..

+Sam glad they help!
I use to play this Defense last year out the 4-4 worked great nice video.
+Savage Blues yeah 4-4 is also good. A little better against the run but weaker against pass.
Thanks for the tips I'm struggling on d this year a little
+Josh The Pyro everybody is struggling don't feel bad. D is just bad overall.
Ignore the haters Eric, keep up the good work!
+funkstatic always man! Thank you.

This has been a lot of people's favorite defense for years, especially the last 2. Plenty of people are already using it.
Everybody who is decent or better is already running it.
+Danation2288 teaching people how to improve their game is going too much? Lmao. And why exactly are you here then?
That was painful. Try using punctuation.
Why are they bums, cause they aren't as advanced at the game? What about kids who are picking up Madden for the first time? Why is it frowned upon to get help?

Great post love how it defends the run and the pass😁😁😁😁
Thanks!
Wow first time watching ur videos..I'm a fan now..thanks
+BlackinOut 27 glad you like them!
Good informative video. Do a run game video plz
I have to say this last thing this Defense isn't easy to beat but if you find a way to beat it you will gain chunks of yardage if you select the right play to run on the offense but against a Vet that's using the right team it's still very hard to be this Defensive coverage
love this man!!! this is what problem was hitting me with. im ranked #10 in mut seasons right now
Yeah Problem has been running 4-6, a lot of top players are. It's effective.
Louue flores i want to challenge u
Players in olb position don't get to the flats when I run it , even with underneath coverage with speed package any ideas?
eric thks for this video it was really good
+TEG MMG MAZ no problem man
A yo e what playbook doe u use bro??!?!?!?!
I use the Seahawks defensive playbook. What formations are good to run with there playbook?
Does target passing still work with the left stick if you are using the new mechanic?
The 4-4 defense also has a cover 2 invert. It's literally the same thing only the 2 DE are in a QB contain instead of just a basic rush. Really good for QB contain obviously but also outside runs
It's not the same personnel though. You don't have a SS in 4-4. And you can't get a speed package to get more CBs on the field.
EricRayweather ahhhh okay. Good to know. I'll definitely be running this cover 2 invert then lol. Thanks
EricRayweather the 4-4 does have a good cover 3 match play. You can do a lot with it. Definitely good on 3rd and long situations
U tha man Eric. Just subbed
Thanks man! I appreciate that.
great video! keep it up, love it
+FrapoonHD thank you!
Looks like i will still be in the Bengals D! Thanks for the content
Yeah Bengals D is what I'm using. Cause 335 is nice as well.
Can you please make a video on how to beat cover 2 invert , as well as a 46 and 4-4 defenses?!
Dc Average Mainly Flood and Post routes
does it have cover 4 and cover 3 marble?
Thanks brother!
No problem fam
I use Broncos can you suggest some good defensive plays?
You should do a money play for the red zone video bro.
What playbooks do you run? Nice video man!
On offense I like Atlanta, Seattle and Arizona right now. On defense, Bengals.
What playbook did he use
great video i love the channel but how do i assign the LB on the reciever i didnt understand in the video?
Click the A button on Xbox or X button on PS4, then flick the right stick up, and then choose the WR icon you want to man him up on.
How do you put that safety in a deep blue? It never gives me the option
+Darth Fader you gotta base align the defense first.
EricRayweather cheers. Thanks for the help
yo i tried this but i seem to be getting beat deep down the middle i consider myself a good user but ross speedy wr or hill kills me not sure what im doing wrong alot of verticles and such beating me on the invert
You just gotta adjust. Back off your coverage if you're getting beat deep for one. Come out in Cover 3 if you're getting beat deep as well. And just worry about covering the shallow middle.
New subscriber.... it's not letting me "speed package". That particular selection is not available when I'm switching. It says things like cb swap lb swap???
It's gotta be the 4-6 Normal formation, not any of the other 4-6 formations.
Eric, what playbook run this? I usually go Arizona for offense, but I don't have a solid defensive playbook to lean on.
+Jack Marshall bengals or jags
what's the best defensive playbook for this? Ideally I'd like to have the 3-4 odd with the cover 4 and the 46 + the nickel where everyone is up on the line. Thoughts?
+Paul Meekin I don't think 46 and 34 over are in the same pb. Cincy pb the best for 46 cause it has 335 also
What's the difference between the 4-4 and this
+Triple Threat Gaming HD 4-4 has 4 lbs and one safety. Also no speed package. 4-6 has 3 lbs and 2 safeties.
5 Wide Concept and Inverted Veer RPO (Panthers, Cowboys, etc. Teams with mobile QB's) sets couldn't be stopped with this defense.
+Ozzy Rodriguez this defense could stop any offense or concept. It's all about adjusting to your opponent and having good user stick.
Yo if I preorder the standard edition on PS4 and wanted to upgrade to the G.O.A.T. Edition would I have to pay $80 dollars instead of just 20? I ordered it off PlayStation store.
I'm not sure to be honest. There might be a goat add on package.
What's 46 bear under? What playbook are you using to get that speed package?
46 Bear Under is another variation of 46 but it's not as good. The best playbooks with regular 4-6 are the Bengals pb and Jags pb.
What defensive playbook do you use
Bengals
Which is the best defense i should use online
I like 46 normal
Good video bro,Although I suggest you stop responding to these negative comments lol they are just bitter
I love responding to everybody man. Good and bad. At the end of the day, all the comments help the videos grow.
How do you do the cross man though?
What system are you on?
How do I put the middle safety in a deep zone
When I try and adjust there's no deep zone option
Sometimes it won't let you I've noticed, idk if it's a bug or what. But usually you can do it by pressing up on the right stick.
Wat defense has normal 46
Jags and Bengals
what team's defensive playbook is this? I just bought the Chiefs playbook and the 46 isn't there.
+Ira Schwartz you can find it in bengals and jags
thanks
dope defense take this sub
Appreciate the sub!
Is this in the 46 playbook or a team specific one
+Charles White 46, jags, bengals
EricRayweather thanks bro

Jacovien Daniels true but my defence is a disgrace. Ive lost my first 2 online games 43 0 and 49 0
in defense remember that a cover 2 means you are covering with two DEEP safeties, which is a good d for short yardage, stuff where they aren't trying to throw the ball deep.

How can I stop a no huddle offense? I can never stop it
+cwbyfan1973 call a timeout and regroup of you have to. It can be hard at times.
If they’re doing that bullshit I just go offsides
3wr to one side, outside wr running a deep out, post by the slot wr and slant by 3rd wr. You're welcome...
That's some crazy shit Ray! When you user a man and you don't control him your player just stands there. I got burnt by wide receivers so many times like that and I didn't know what was happening until I replayed the play and noticed my user wasn't movin. So this year are you forced to actually control a user? How can you disable users until you want to use it?
+Andrew Macdaniels you can't. If you don't want to user initially you have to play on the dline.
cuz i bought a chiefs playbook and the play wasnt even in there
Quick Passes to the outside recievers would Murder this defense....lol......if they press the outside corners ...GO DEEP
+GameWise adjustments exist
I got killed by post routes...this has alot of flaws bruh
You have to adjust to stop the post routes. And to be honest, post routes are killing everything right now. Zones just play bad. I didn't say this will stop everything, I said it's the best defensive formation. You gotta adjust behind it to stop what your opponent is doing.
I would kill this formation wit the run game
Connor went 10 rounds Dammmmmmmnnn
This shit was cheese as fuck last year
It's not cheese, it's a base formation lol.
Shit like this ruins the game. Instead of people figuring out the game and defense guys like him put this shit up.
How exactly is me showing the basics of a defensive formation ruining the game? Lmao, some of you guys are wild I swear.
I can always use some pointers! . Just because he shows us the formation you still have to execute it.. I'm still learning how to user.. I've been playing for a few years..
