Madden 10 reviews

it is funny the way peyton changes his plays before every single snap. i have not found a zone coverage that can keep him at bay. i go to press man coverage (dime - slots: man.cover 1.qb spy) blitz my lb and place him in the middle, blitz my fs and place him between the lt and the lg. and if there is a rb in the backfield, i select the defender who is assigned to him, and blitz off whichever side of manning he happens to be standing on, if he runs a pattern out of the backfield, i cover him - if not, i blitz manning. so i have my 4 down linemen rushing, my mlb rushing, my fs rushing, and depending on the rb, my ss rushing. leaving every single wr in single man coverage, but the pressure comes quick, so he has to let it go in no time. it doesn't work every time, but it works a hell of a lot better than the zone coverages, and is also stellar against the run.
