Look it’s the end of the year. I was a good boy all year and ran non glitchy, regular plays, but now I want to know the best ones to have, since anyone still playing the game is probably using them too.
I’m a run first offense typically, but would not mind having a few broken pass plays just for annoying opponents.

RPOs are really, really annoying to stop
i form hulk is really, really annoying to stop
two deep crossers with clear out routes and checkdowns is really, really annoying to stop
as far as glitches go (eg things that don’t work as they’re supposed to) most are patched anyway so just run annoying things
I HAAAAAAATE RPOs.
…
so you should probably run some RPOs.

What even are RPOs whenever I run them it gets very confusing

RPOs are run pass options. So you can run or pass the ball.

Do you know which O playbook has those formations, or maybe even which specific plays they are?
I’m tired of facing cover 3 and getting 7 yards a play, I wanna one play td these fools

You wanna be running a scheme, not just individual plays. Pick a formation, preferably in shotgun where you can block a running back and a tight end. Then, your goal is to use concepts to consistently beat different coverages. Practice mode helps
For those of you worried about stopping the "annoying" things in this thread...
To stop most RPOs... you have to take away the bubble with a CPU defender so you can focus on usering the run. You can do this from many Nickel packages by setting your Hooks to 0 yards and putting your slot CB on a Vertical Hook. He will at least be right there to tackle the receiver. Pass committing will almost always result in Pick 6 but leaves you more vulnerable to the run. You can pinch or shift your DLine accordingly to help against toters... but the best thing is to have a good user. Personally I use Big Nickel Over G... if you pinch the DLine and Slant them outside... you can gap shoot right up the middle against many common runs, including IForm Hulk Power O where you can just run in right behind the pulling guard. Just hit practice mode to find the best angles and timing.
The deep crosser I have the most challenge with lately is the always annoying PA Boot Over from Gun Bunch TE (which also has an RPO bubble that you have to watch out for). I like to bring pressure with 5-6 and try to engage the guard with my user... then immediately peel and try to get back to the deep crossers. I've been burned more than a few times because I just can't always get quite back far enough to make a play because sometimes my user gets bumped or I have to go around other defenders and receivers so it's not a straight shot back. Probably a better way is to set your zone drops to the right depth but I find that annoying to change constantly.
