You have no idea how long I've waited for a channel like this. Tired of watching people opening card pack after card pack and spamming exploit plays. This kind of content is actually what John Madden himself envisioned Madden as a game being used for. Thanks so much for making Madden entertaining again.
Exactly! I’m tired of that, I love playing madden in offline franchise. Because I love trying to balance run and pass, or RPOs. And not get screamed at the entire time by some loser yelling at me because I’m RPOing or kicking field goals. I love Kurt because I can learn and start to work up to playing all madden mode.
i wonder how many people are like “bro why am i getting dotted TF up?” not realizing there’s a former NFL quarterback holding the other joystick🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
video suggestion: teach us when/how to read routes: like high-low reads, how to read across the field, stuff like that. I hear you say it all the time like when you hot route but I dont really know how to do that myself in my own madden games. would be so cool
Kudos man, you’re making me want to play madden again. So sick of money plays and AI glitches. Some of us love real football concepts and you are nailing it. You need to start planning your content for college football 25.
KB, my wife used to hate when I’d play Madden or any sports game alone, but she thinks these videos are incredible. It’s uniquely entertaining watching people be an expert at anything, and that’s living proof of it. Keep this going! There’s nothing like this on TH-cam.
I want to thank you for the videos, you helped me go from being best by a couple of touchdowns to being able to beat my friends that are great madden players
Kurt, I’m 13 years old and have never played on a football team. I didn’t even know how to throw a ball until last year. I want to play football for my school next year but the problem is that I would be competing for the starting Quarterback position with guys that are bigger than me (I’m only like 5’3-5’4) faster than me, and have a stronger arm than me. The only way I could get the starting role is if I’m more accurate and have a higher football IQ. Any tips? Thanks Kurt.
@@KurtBenkertSlight problem, when I try to do as they do, I’m extremely inconsistent with accuracy, I seem to do better when I’m not thinking “ok, point foot, plant foot, rotate, follow through” It’s odd. Any idea about that? Sorry to keep asking things I know your busy with life and everything but coaches on youtube can only do so much and I don’t have the money to go to a football camp. Also, you were a professional athlete and know a lot.
@@KurtBenkertI was wrong, I really focused on just doing the rotate and whatever else instead of trying to focus on throwing and when I finally did throw it was amazing. Thank you Mr. Benkert.
Interesting breakdown of empty. I like the way you described how it is easier to read defenses in empty since the defense has to show their cards quicker. However, as an empty player, I do disagree with it being the "easiest offense to run." Being in empty requires a lot of different reads. As seen in your video, in every play, you were reading 3+ receivers on the play, and you were mainly free styling. I believe in more compressed sets; it is a much more systematic offense, and there are usually only 1-2 reads per play. Anyway, thanks for sharing!
The most impressive thing in the video was the other player staying as long as he did. Great video you’ve really helped me almost have a winning record in madden
I have not played Madden since the 08 edition. This channel makes me want to play it again. The fun part of madden for me was always the strategy , not just the fact that you got to play as your favorite players etc.
Incredibly helpful video. Thanks again! Hey, can you do some videos like this with tips and tech for playing against the CPU on All-Pro and All-Madden?
My boys and I just started a madden online franchise, I’ve never been great, but this definitely helps. Thank you for making the video with your experience at QB!
Imagine you’re queueing up for some H2H and you’re sweating your ass off but little do you know KB is on the other side just chilling and making tutorials
They had a picket fence shell and had 2 backer elements plussed over to the right which is a high indicator that they are disguising blitz from that side.
I noticed when I start a game with an empty offense for the first play it makes it a whole lot easier for me to dictate the defense they gonna run for the whole game and throws a wrench in their gamplan 😊
Now I get it. I was at the Jets games watching Zach Wilson play and I would be so angry at why they were playing empty so much when their o-line was garbage. It's bc ZW needs help reading defenses, but he never had the time bc he would get sacked. He was trying to be patient to let the plays develop. I understand why empty is good for young QBs, like CJ Stroud excelled bc he can throw with anticipation and his line gave him time to be patient in the pocket.
They the easiest ones to beat because they aren’t really covering the field it’s almost like you playing the CPU but instead of All Madden it’s All Pro If the do decide to take the DL in coverage then you have all day to just to sit in the pocket
Just got done playing a MUT game against the new Bo Jackson HB card where all dude did was break 3-5 tackles per play. Literally cycled through the same 3-4 plays all to Bo and couldn't stop it because dude could just shed multiple tackles per carry. Then I watch this and remember how awesome madden can be when people don't cheese broken mechanics. I follow your tiktok and have been getting better with your tips, everyone on MUT just wants to roll out and run with their 97ovr jackson and mahomes cards, I stand in the pocket with Purdy and deliver! Keep up the good work homie.
Imagine coming home from a long day of work so you turn on madden to relax and play a few games but the first game you match up with an NFL vet QB😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ok Mr Benkurt i have to say im so enjoying your breakdowns. I wish more NFL players did this, it so refeshing. Any MUT videos on the horizon. I would love to see you cook these cheese kids with a stacked team.
i have my camera view on wide but it doesnt show all of the players when i press or hold LT or L2 idk why it doesnt, also what is an overhead pass button is it a tap pass or is it just a button press
3:30 3x2, +11ydl, right hash vs man 1 w/ the free cheating to trips side. Obvious man look from D, why not read the twins side and hi/lo the Corner? Looked like you could've made the throw to A w/ Stroud. Just my observation. Thanks for the content! * Also, if you were reading left to right, you should've seen the Nickel blitz and corner sit on X...and the ball was still thrown👀😂 jk.. but boundry side was correct pre snap read for me. Js..
whenever I'm getting frustrated by the defense I just go empty set all verts and start dissecting the ish out of them. I figured this out back in 2010-2012 when I was writing a community college english paper on the New England Patriots spread offense. Still run NE offense. Although I used Seattle for a while till it lost my bread and butter Flood Sail play.
I actually wouldn't mind reading that paper. I loved playing Madden 11 (Drew Brees cover) with that playbook and how it had both 6 and 7 man protections and all 5 out in the same play in a variety of plays.
Hey bro love the videos, you have inspired me to full understand the complexity of the NFL and play calling. Just curious if you could go over scripting plays? And if you ever followed a script(certain set of plays) in order?
Hey Kurt, it’s my first year playing madden and because of you i fell in love with playing offense! Do you think you could cover how to play on the defensive side of the ball? I only call Mike will blitz or tampa 2 from the 4-3, 6-1 and I feel like i can’t read plays when im playing on defence
At 3:42 you missed a wide open touchdown pass. They were in press, if they are playing zone now way they are manned up that tight, it was SCREAMING man on man coverage.
finally, someone who explains how to exploit a defense based on the coverage and how to influence their defensive responsibilities instead of "just use this play and spam it"

This is why I do it 🫡🫡
makes me think of MMG opening packs and being like "WOAHHH THE ANIMATIONS GUYS!!!" meanwhile the game is broken af
Makes me wish EA didn't have an exclusive license.
I hate MUT soooo much.

Bruh!
Kurt you are filling a void that only someone with your experience could, keep up the great work and GPG
❤️🤝
fax
Not the tutorial against a live opponent 😭😭😭 I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy
😂😂😂 had to do it to em
Fr Kurt violated this dude 😭
@@karterguy06It’s what he deserves for using the Chiefs in pubs lol
Kurt ain't doing that to me
When he's into his 20th "big dawg" 🔥
I much prefer that than people who cuss out their own players lol
Can we all appreciate that guy not quitting until the end. Didn't mess with the video finally 😂
video suggestion: teach us when/how to read routes: like high-low reads, how to read across the field, stuff like that. I hear you say it all the time like when you hot route but I dont really know how to do that myself in my own madden games. would be so cool
Ahh I feel that. Let me work on that
Best part about these vids is you play against actual ppl and not in practice mode. Love these
Fair play to my guy for waiting til the end to quit despite getting cooked all game so we could have a fluid video.
Madden screens work 100% of the time 50% of the time. Lineman ruin everything
Those first few drives you basically told bro to go be a family man
😂
It’s funny cause if u look at Kurt’s stat line, he had already thrown a pick but took it out the vid
Hello Kurt, thanks for the advice, this is helping me out so much in madden man.
Kudos man, you’re making me want to play madden again. So sick of money plays and AI glitches. Some of us love real football concepts and you are nailing it.
You need to start planning your content for college football 25.

That’s a huge compliment thanks dude
Thank you for this I want to run 5 wide for the rest of my football game life this will help me tremendously..thanks fam
KB with another 🔥 breakdown
Noah brown can’t catch😂😂
This content is unmatched! Thank you for posting.
day 1 of telling KB to play TDBarrett
Note to self - no playing Madden against KB
Keep up the good work I wish you were still on the packers
I want to thank you for the videos, you helped me go from being best by a couple of touchdowns to being able to beat my friends that are great madden players
only ogs know this isn’t the first title lmao
I’m trying the algo 😂😂😂

What nfl players on TH-cam and see how they move their bodies and generate force and their footwork. Best place to start tbh

I’m thankful he held on for it 😂
Dude quit with 13 seconds left 💀 just take you L my guy
I know it's madden but kurt really should be at least on a sideline. the mental aspect is fantastic, he knows ball.
Playing right now. Take me to school brobro
Get right king
Kurt, you're a legend for making these videos. Thank you
Yo a pump fake video would be really nice even if it was just a quick short explaining it a little bit more in depth, love the videos bro
He makes it look so easy. There is no way I’ll be able to make reads like this
One day 🫡
Can you do some defense videos??
I have one recorded just needs editing
Lowkey saved madden for me. Made it more realistic & fun
W
loving the content I keep tuning in and always have a good time! Thanks brotha
KB you should learn how to make free form passes, they're a game changer. You just have to hold L2 and place the ball closer to a certain direction
Hope you’re doing good! We’re gonna have to play brotha! Top pro madden player vs NFL QB 🙏🙏🙌
I have not played Madden since the 08 edition. This channel makes me want to play it again. The fun part of madden for me was always the strategy , not just the fact that you got to play as your favorite players etc.
BRO Why are u exposing my only playbook i been running since madden 10 /: lmao good video tho
I suck at madden empty gives me a chance to compete 😂😂😂. I didnt know it was a go to for everyone. It seem like the only thing that works for me.
I just got here cus I used to watch u at UVA. This content is great keep it up!!!!!
Incredibly helpful video. Thanks again!
Hey, can you do some videos like this with tips and tech for playing against the CPU on All-Pro and All-Madden?
with kurt's help i don't have to buy a new controller every weekend
My boys and I just started a madden online franchise, I’ve never been great, but this definitely helps. Thank you for making the video with your experience at QB!
Refreshing as hell to see some one rub something else but streak corner flat the whole game 🤦♂️
The fact I was like why is Kurt just dotting up the CPU......and then I realized he was online the whole time lmao
😂😂😂
Imagine you’re queueing up for some H2H and you’re sweating your ass off but little do you know KB is on the other side just chilling and making tutorials
Man don’t start telling everybody my playbook 😢
Been learning passing concepts I feel like Neo when he learned kung fu
this lowkey makes me wanna run empty😂
literally just ran this in my championship round and put up 45… i added an extra TE to it so i can audible down to Wing Stack and rollout bomb😭
At 9:15, you said you knew they were going to blitz from the right. With the corners not showing any tips, how did you know?
They had a picket fence shell and had 2 backer elements plussed over to the right which is a high indicator that they are disguising blitz from that side.
@@KurtBenkert that makes so much more sense. I truly appreciate your videos so much man
@@KurtBenkertwhat picket fence shell mean
I noticed when I start a game with an empty offense for the first play it makes it a whole lot easier for me to dictate the defense they gonna run for the whole game and throws a wrench in their gamplan 😊
Come out in empty Been audibling to single back
I thought I knew how to play madden until I found you, I'm terrible 😂😂😂 I would pay for a masterclass taught by you.
Much appreciated dude - I’ll keep adding to this for free
Now I get it. I was at the Jets games watching Zach Wilson play and I would be so angry at why they were playing empty so much when their o-line was garbage.

I thought the thumbnail was Charlie sheens brother
Gimme that pump fake video, big dawg!
You just completely gave my the full story/playbook on how I can dominate the male relatives who play Madden mostly so thank you Kurt 💪🏽✊🏽👊🏽😎
This offense is great. I've been looking for a new passing scheme and this is good. I've went 5-0 so far in regs
Love hearing this
Man i need to use empty more often great work
I run empty all the time, I only have problems with d-line users cuz I don't have any time to make a read or throw the ball
They the easiest ones to beat because they aren’t really covering the field it’s almost like you playing the CPU but instead of All Madden it’s All Pro
If the do decide to take the DL in coverage then you have all day to just to sit in the pocket

Great video 👍🏾
another great breakdown by KB
Kurt Benkert more like Kurt GOATkert
would love to see a video breakdown using the Pistol playbook!!
Also, 5WR in run and gun is also great
You need to play for the Steelers
Just feel like u played a bum honestly
He did play a scrub but 5 wide is still a pretty tough stop if you playing someone who can make the best read almost every time and have patience
Man I don’t even play madden but your videos are fun to watch 🔥
Just a heads up Mr Madden guy your pop filter doesnt seem to be doing it's job. Getting some harsh noise at the end of your S's
Imagine coming home from a long day of work so you turn on madden to relax and play a few games but the first game you match up with an NFL vet QB😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ok Mr Benkurt i have to say im so enjoying your breakdowns. I wish more NFL players did this, it so refeshing. Any MUT videos on the horizon. I would love to see you cook these cheese kids with a stacked team.
Sorry auto correct got me. With I spelled your name wrong. Mr Benkert
That was surgery. 👏🏾
Best Madden channel!!!!!!!
Could you do a break down of good passing concepts in the red zone / goal line? Appriciate all the great content!
i have my camera view on wide but it doesnt show all of the players when i press or hold LT or L2 idk why it doesnt, also what is an overhead pass button is it a tap pass or is it just a button press
Love this type of content 🙌❤️
This was amazing, love the video. I can't wait for more.
Kurt putting out another banger
i’m ngl idk what’s zone and what’s man. i’m struggling figuring out the zone. i motion a player but i can’t really tell tbh
The kid is an animal
I love you Kurt 🫡
Dude, best Madden tutorial channel on YT...thanks for doing it 👌

I absoluutely hate motion in madden..offense is already too easy..i understand its in the nfl..but fkfk .
Keep it up man! This is great
The more videos I watch I'm like how are you not on a team as like an assistant or assistant offensive coordinator
W content tho
Kurt Go Pack Go Always, thanks for everything you do. Question: What defence would you recommend for trying to stop empty?
Hey Kurt, it’s my first year playing madden and because of you i fell in love with playing offense! Do you think you could cover how to play on the defensive side of the ball? I only call Mike will blitz or tampa 2 from the 4-3, 6-1 and I feel like i can’t read plays when im playing on defence
This is sick 🤓 I only no 🏀 and play 2K but changed to madden and win some games only gold! But fuck to get to top 100 need to learn all this stuff 😂😂
