I've been playing Madden 13 recently I've been struggling on defense I think a lot of this is because I don't know what coverage's to use on pass or run plays. Can anyone give me some advice?

    I'd suggest just finding which you/your team tends to be better at -- pass defense or run defense. then run your defensive strategy to strengthen your weakness.

    if you struggle to stop the run, set up in a 4-3, maybe, so you can stack the line. but that pulls from pass defense. if you are OK at run stopping but keep getting burned on the pass, set up in something like a 3-4 or a 4-6, even. if your guys are good at man-to-man coverage, that helps. but, if not, you can put more bodies back there and run a zone. this might not stop all the passes -- it should help, certainly -- but it will definitely help prevent guys from getting loose after the catch.

    because you can't possibly do both?

    Read and play video games at the same time? Only during loading screens.

    I'd say it's probably easier to go at each at separate times.

    I call shenanigans on the topic title. You asked for football knowledge, not video game knowledge
    :tongue:
