<p>Seriously.  They push updates that crash the game.... you mean to tell me no one at EA tested this on all platforms to make sure they work?</p> <p>I don't think I've ever seen an update that crashes a game that was previously working.....except for EA. </p> …

Yeah only thing saving Revis is his abilities.

<p>Even without inside or outside shade his cards have been great in man press all year for me. Even at 5' 11.. but Revis cards always play well in Madden</p> <p>Still , having outside shade discounted on him is crazy good</p>

fixed it for you.

<p>Lol. I really don't think it's the staff's fault. EA really.does staff MUT so terribly that these people are completely overwhelmed.  </p> <p>EA staffs up FIFA, Apex, etc.... but MUT is completely neglected. That's why there's so many screw ups. You have …</p>

<p>Revis and Haynes are the top 2, easily</p> <p>Then Cro, Woodson and Carmichael.  Ward and.Verrett didn't play well for me.  Durant is too short. Revis is bigger than Durant and he's borderline tall.enough but he gets outside shade, the best man ability av…</p>

You can put Defensive Rally on your edge rushers as well but it’s 2AP each unless they get it discounted. You can also put it on Field General MLB’s but nobody is spending the 4AP on that and most aren’t using MLB’s anyway. 

I think the description on the actual ability is misleading. It states, “Defenders with this ability will grant a bonus pass rush point to all defensive linemen on any 3rd or 4th down.” I don’t think anyone gets a “bonus” pass rush point, I believe a more accurate description would be that it ”restores a used pass rush point”. I‘m going to test it out some more, if there are really yellow bars added from D-Rally then the term “bonus” would be correct.

<p>But you can't really have more than 2 on the field at the same time unless, like you said, you put it on your edge rushers, right?</p> <p>So realistically the most you could use is 2 of them ....I dunno...I didn't notice a huge difference on 3rd and 4th a…</p>

This is the kind of thing that madden needs more of, I sincerely appreciate this post. There is so many posts that contain bad information / opinions throughout the different websites / forums.

Some “theorycrafting” here... In theory if I had 4 Defensive Rallies, that would guarantee DON lighting up on 3rd and 4th down as every point would be guaranteed to be restored? If you could guarantee massive pressure from 2/3 dons on 3rd and 4th down that may change the ball game here…

<p>I run 3 D Rally's sometimes but the problem is they have to be on the field for the ability to work. So the most you could have is 2 if you want your edge rushers to benefit. I run Simmons and Seymour both w 0 AP D rally and honestly I do not see my…</p>

I often see a yellow bonus bar added to the full green so I’m pretty sure it does add one when the rusher already has full points

<p>Ok I have not seen that....I have to lab this, thanks</p>

Sad thing is, if you don't run HRM, you can pretty much get that exact set up right now: 

Zero Chill Brady: Gunslinger, SFL, Fearless - 4 AP total
Oline: Munoz, Larry Allen, Creed Humprhey, Will Shields, Yanda - 5 AP total 
TE: Taysom HIll and Kittle SIE - 0 AP
WRs: CeeDee Lamb, Steve Smith Sr, Ty Hilton - 1 AP total for 3 SIE and 1 SOE
 

Crazy that we're already here and we still have 6 months of the game left.

<p>Yeah but who would run those 3 WRs as their starters? One in the slot maybe...and you really do need HRM to maximize your effectiveness on offense....</p> <p>But yeah I mean, I have 20 players with abilities on my offense. </p> <p>If you've played in prior year…</p>

<p>What if your pass rush point are already maxed? I have not seen it add an extra one, so sometimes I feel like D rally is kinda useless (especially if you are maxed already) and sometimes it is helpful</p>

<p>They do Legends from playoff teams during the promo usually, so Justin Tuck or a new Strahan......a new Saquon....a freakin Mark Bavaro would be awesome if they have his rights.......</p>
