GOOD RIDDANCE...why do my opponents spam hurry up offense EVERY PLAY

Its so annoying.  The games are already too long

No NFL team runs hurry up offense every play

Can they add some false starts or something to penalize the dorks that spam hurry up offense every play?

At least have an increasingly larger fatigue penalty  every time they run  hurry up.

They either see a flaw in the defense you’re calling or they don’t want to give you time to set up your defense to stop the two reads they’re probably spamming.

This is a good point.  It is annoying....

hurry up is fun, it keeps shell defense bums off balance, especially changing formations on every play

If you think hurry up is fun....I think you need to look up the definition of "fun"

Play spammers are much worse then the shell guys

I was pulling my hair out trying to stop a Speed Option play spammer, which was one of the most miserable Madden experiences i've had in a hot minute -- and that's truly saying something, because the game tends to be a buggy ass mess.

Some players are being strategic... they catch you in a bad defensive set up and they want to punish you or make you burn a timeout.  I'll use this strategy when someone comes out in a bad run defense and I gash them for 8 or more yards a pop.  

Then there are guys that just play like this.  I love playing these idiots... makes it worth the time setting up my audibles because you might get me once but you're not gonna burn me twice in a row calling the same thing.  I especially love the guys who hurry up after eating a sack... I've even played guys who get sacked three straight times and go for it when facing a "4th and Colorado".

I do it to make you post it on forums

yeah, winning games is fun, winning games against scrubs  that drop 9-10 in cov is even better, it’s funny to watch them panic as they’re trying to set it up. I don’t run no huddle all the time, but the second I see that BS, it’s on 🫡

big diff between a cpl and all game lol, stamina/fatigue should matter in this game. even world class athletes get tired but in madden 300 lb lineman have the cardio of a marathon runner smh

All-game Hurry Up isn't "fun", it's positively obnoxious. It's not only not the way any real-life team plays in real life (due to fatigue and the complexities of being coordinated on every play), but it deliberately exploits the user control interface limitations of the defending player.

Let's be real here: There are two situations where competitive real-life teams run Hurry Up: When the game clock dictates that they do so, or when a specific personnel mismatch makes keeping up a fast pace preferable. The latter is extremely rare, and I seriously doubt that most of the Hurry Up Spammers could even positively identify in the moment what the defensive personnel are.

I know this: I make heavy use of shell defenses because: A) Madden's defensive AI is already horrible, and, B) Shell is the best way to force weak-minded, low football-IQ offensive users to weary themselves in a protracted fight for every yard. And I'm sure that's not fun for you.
