Use stretch plays and spam the speed boost bug like everybody.
I've learned that you need to manually learn how to UNTARGET players to get more consistent run blocking.
The biggest way I learned this is actually from the CPU. Their run blocking is perfect on every run play because, and this is just a guess, the CPU will natively untarget the right defenders on every run play.
If you do the same thing for your between-the-tackles runs (I always untarget the safeties if it's 2 deep, and if it's cover 3 look I untarget the CB's + play-side flat defender as he'll take himself out of hte play trying to set the edge) - you'll get MUCH better and more consistent run blocking.
Otherwise if you just let the game try to figure it out, you get some of the weirdest run-blocking targets and combinations that make no sense and leave guys unblocked right in your face
The run defense has definitely changed. H2h and even cpu. Im running combine guys out of position so that could be it too

Been seeing this formation a lot. Picking off the RPO with my user and taking it to the house brings me so much joy.

It's cheating when it's so glitched that you know it's coming; call the right defensive scheme to stop it; and it still works (unless you manually adjust 10 guys in a third of a second before the snap, and then run your user around the field like a crackhead).

Yea that’s called not being good at preplay adjustments. The other person isn’t cheating because you’re not making your adjustments fast enough.

Anything that works and isn’t just calling random plays from coach suggestions for the sake of “realism” is cheating.

Buddy of mine, told me about untargeting defenders. It's been the biggest help tbh, i've tried the speedboosting out of the backfield. I might get the animation 1 out of 10 runs, ik the steps to do it. It just never activates, open field I can speedboost 80% of the time. Still working on it, I run a pass heavy scheme. Being able to run more would be great, open up the passing lanes too.
Just run HB direct, problem solved… anyone with thumbs can run it… if your opponent starts to figure out how to stop it, throw the RPO in the flat to your TE…

Not in my playbook, I also can't stomach running one play all game. I'll figure it out, thx for the idea tho.
