Stop the cheese blitz right now!!

The house rules event is a great way to lab.

Seems like everyone is doing the "max protect" glitch and the cover 4 Y Sail bomb to beat it. 

Also, plays like MTN Speed Dig Under do a good job of beating cover 4. 

The loop blitz is easy to block. 

The touch n go blitz is another story. Blocking is inconsistent with that one.

Against normal pressure with edge threat or UF/colossus yes i agree. but the cheese blitz, there' s no counter to that.  All the blitz adjustments don't work.  That's why 9/10 people are doing it.  It just ruins the game

Have you tried Play Action to counter the blitz? Which specific pressure are you trying to block, the engage three man blitz that everyone is running? 

Try throwing quick TE Streak, pass lead DOWN.

Hey man. I appreciate you being helpful here.

the 3-2 dime sub LB blitz from the weak side.

Yeah, Zan posted a video on it. Apparently, you max protect, then put your TE and RB out on routes and still pick up most of the popular blitzes.

That's quite possibly THE most frustrating to stop. Honestly, if you see them doing this AND dropping their DT into a Vert Hook or really any type of pass coverage, I'd consider trying to run the ball down their throat, maybe an 01 Trap or some type of Inside Zone should get you decent yards, especially if the DT's first step is backwards.

I'm calling a LOT of PA Snag recently, to try and help combat the interior rush. It's much better at stopping the various loop style blitzes, but will often jam up the interior line. Can keep HB, or put him on Flat or Streak. Play Action blocking is different and can sometimes help. Overall, blocking logic is just plain terrible, perhaps my biggest complaint in a long list of M25 gripes. Sorry I can't help more here. We're all dealing with it.

So no one is going to talk about this? Let's bring this glitch to the floor please. You can learn about using play action to dumb out the loop blitz and say add abilities all day. That takes 5 secs to learn on a garbage tik tok. Let's learn more about this max protect. I'm not a fan of max protect because it limits the amount of  route combos you can pass to on the field.

“No skill” is being used a lot.

how much skill must I possess, for my style of video gaming to satisfy you? And how much skill is too much skill before I become a tryhard loser?

Don’t run the same blitz every single play that’s how you don’t become a tryhard loser

You can still put your HB and TE on routes after you Max Protect and your line blocks much better . Like people said Zan has a free video on it  , You should definitely follow Zan   , he gives great free tips and no one explains them better than him .

All Play Action passes work in this manner, they have a different style of pass blocking which could/should help to improve interior blocking... and you do NOT need to keep any of the stock routes, you can even send yer HB out as you normally would, completely removing the play action component of the play, while still retaining this slightly adjusted blocking scheme.  Sorry if all of that is old news to you, wish i had a better suggestion, it's difficult to play against someone who is dropping 8 into coverage and can reliably and consistently get pressure while sending just three rushers on each and every single down.

Having Vernon has been game-changing for me.  I run SO many simple Drag routes or TE Streaks, or Corners... he can catch the ball and survive even an Avalanche style Hit Stick (with Tank ability) and is absolutely fantastic with the ball after the catch.  He just moves so much better than the >246 pounders with larger player models/builds.

Secure protecters, I believe the captains have them for 1 ap. Also I like to qb run the oppsite side of blitz until the qb spy then I throw

Use a 4 x 1 offensive formation. Make sure the bunch/trips is to the opposite side of the user that is mugging the gap. From there you want the inside wr/te going on a drag or slant towards the user to get their attention, put your rb on a streak, put your slot wr on a flat and the outside wide receiver on a comeback. If it is zone/match, the rb should be open and the user will take the drag, and if its man the comeback should be open.
