Defense tips?

I have taken a long break from Madden/MUT. Frankly, last time I really grinded MUT was 19 or 21? Defense is a lot different now

Where do I start? I keep getting beat on inside and outside, even when shading coverage correctly. My team is not great. Blitzes aren't great for me either.

If you are playing seasons its on All-Pro and man defense will lose most times. You have to have the very best players on defense to run man consistently and get good coverage. At this point in the year the man and speed ratings are not high enough on most players to keep up or not get their ankles broke. 

If you are playing ranked then its on All-Madden and man defense works much better, still not perfect but its better. 

I suggest mixing man blitzes in but mostly sticking to zone coverages combined with defensive line stunts. Most people run a matching zone coverage with the Texas 4-man stunt.  Huddle.gg has some good videos on the home page where they cover these things.

this is actually not true. i have a team worth of combined 2 million coins and have won the gauntlet 3 times. to be good easily mix shells. say your playins trips te run a coover 2 shell to the right rith a cover 3 on the left. get a good switch and youll cage alot of pros. its not hard. money isnt always a answer bro

There iis ine tatic I use on d# to cover the middle plays or drags .. so make sure you sub fast de on the edge. Or good coverage players...  Nows here's the thing... Pick the opposite side end and man cover the receiver manually on the other side of the field... Shade outside and cover the middle with your user... When the player goes across for the drag the opposite de will pull up and cover underneath... I came up with this years ago. And it works...people don't see it coming...
