I’ve learned you gotta be careful about these pre-snap adjustments against the computer. They will aggressively counter your adjustments. Ie., making your defensive backs shade under will lead to attacking you deep. Use adjustments cautiously and moderately.

I'm still trying to learn by playing and this helps u see more out of ur adjustment off and def great video

This is a awesome and informative video. Thanks👍🏾

so helpful, thanks eric

I’m glad I found you on RU-vid again. I use to follow your tips 6 or 7 years ago. Had a serious surgery & I’m back. You had me ranked 500 in the world online play. Your very good with the tips. I’m fixin to get back to playing MADDEN. 👍🏾👍🏾

I'm a new madden player and just found your channel and I've found it extremely useful and watched a ton of your videos to improve as a player and i love the content. im just curious on if madden franchise is always this buggy because i cant find anything on it anywhere but 2 times in the past couple weeks my main franchise jut stops working and i don't know if its ever gonna work again. your an experienced madden player so hopefully you know something i don't. either way keep up the great useful videos and tips

This vid was great I really needed help with stopping short quick passes and I think the underneath tip might just help

your videos have helped me so much thx

YESSS HAVING THE RB MANNED UP IS SO CLUTCH I been doin that since 20 and it disrupts the sneaky slip screens even if it’s my DE he go on a swing or screen he’s right there as long as tht rb doesn’t have my guy running he’s locked

Great video Eric. You're A GOAT

Adjustments definitely help with what people complain about dbs not doing their role. Just alot of shit to learn but definitely rewarding once you start to get it and make good reads.

Love your videos....ty

I've been using your coaching adjustment settings lately, except when I get down by a lot and need a takeaway I set BALL IN AIR defense to Play Ball and STRIP BALL to Aggressive.

That was super helpful

Amazing video!

Thanks for this video. This is gonna help me stop getting beat on the underneath routes💯

Hey man what throwing motion do you use on jalen hurts

Almost the same exact tips every year and I always relearn something or catch something I missed the first time preshaded

Eric Always Helping me back up my trash talk vs my friends Only madden trash talkers can 👍

Are you making these adjustments on practice mode or during a game

Thank you

I’m trying to start a new franchise on Madden 23 and I can’t get to the current week. I’m stuck having to start at week 10, what should I do?

10:10 how do you have time to do these adjustments??

This actually helped out a lot! I thought my Raiders were just scrubs! THANK YOU! 💯💯💯💯💯

Gang gang Eric the best

I love to use the Cover 3 and Cover 6 plays. Always helped me out in a tight spot (along with completely shutting down opponents). Ever since I discovered their effectiveness, I shut out every opponent.

how can i set the running back to always man cover?

What I’ve realized after playing Madden for many years with family and friends is, hot routing your defensive players really doesn’t matter if you don’t understand if your defensive players are in the middle of the field. All you really need to know is, are your players on the field correctly with any Offensive or Defensive play. The reason for this is the width of the field. Your players need to be closest to the wide end of the field which would make them be in the middle. DO NOT LEAVE AUTO-FLIP ON. Turn OFF. You should know how to make sure the play is in the MIDDLE of the FIELD. Once you have established that, then pick the play you believe your opponent will do pertaining to their Offensive Formation and down and distance. Pick your play. Do not flip play again after picking play because your players will no longer be in the middle of the field. Just because your opponent flips their play doesn’t mean you should. The person probably realized that the play needs to be flipped correctly because it’s not on the field correctly. Making sure your Offense or Defense is in the middle of the field applies to both Offense and Defense. It’s all about field position and accounting for the width of the field.

Is coaching adjustments available in Franchise mode pregame and if so, where?

What's up my friend

It's all about great vision and extincts throughout the whole game. All you need is that nano second to see a wr open to throw it to.

brother when did your in video promo game get so aggressive?

How do you access this menu in game? I'm playing on Xbox one. The coach adjustments menu

lol 3:23 😂

Aye wassup neighbor. Who Dat! The minute I heard your voice I was like he from where I’m from 😂

Swat ball> play receiver literally had a dude that threw ATLEAST 20 aggressive catch corner routes and didn’t catch a single one

how do you get to coaching adjustments?

Anyone know when franchise mode will be available to play. It’s been down for the past two days lol

I set mine on 25 and shade underneath and straight kill those corner routes my homies be trying to run

I noticed that in my opinion, the best defensive playbook is Chiefs or Lions

Make a vid on how most ppl can’t even play MUT because servers are down pls

Will the people that don’t have the griddy ever get the griddy in madden 23

I cannot find coaching adjustments

Which tip should I use tho?

Noti gang

Madden servers are down again can you help

When I click down on the right stick my players don't run at the qb. I just attempt a big hit and fall to the ground.

💯

is franchise still Broke?

Notigang

I need this bad i get whooped on in every h2h Super Bowl I play

6:15

Thanks because on a read-option in my franchise Jameis Winston ran all over me

I hope this works. I could’ve won so many games if my defense didn’t put up 40 points per game

6:10

I got locked out of my franchise I’ve had for 2 months and was in 19 years into it

I just run Tampa 2 and have the DE go to hard flats

How to stop corner routes

I hate the fact ppl use MLB on defense. On a given play I see MLB play the run, the cross, and the deep post all at once. I just play DT and call plays.

Ok but how do i get to coach adjustments tho... 😂😭

It dosent let me put safety at lb

“Both” = “BOFF” 🤣

💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥✨️✨️

They won’t let me put my middle line backer in a hard flat on dollar play

Auto flip should always be off! Always

Shading doesn't work that well

Lets go

U actually want swat ball

I mainly only run cover 1,2 and man blitz, works about 80% of the time haha. Only thing that’s hard for me is stopping the damn run…

This doesn’t help at all cuz I suck and don’t understand what this menad

Honestly I don’t think this would even help based on how scripted madden is lol

This is bull shyt I can't do any of that won't let me not fair madden ain't fair

How do I get that cool play art on defense!

I play offense and then I put the controller down. Not gonna play 11 guys at once that is ridiculous.
