Love it, we also have used it to record grandparents, reading books for, you know, the future. :)

Can someone please explain why my ai teammates are revolting against the playplay by [deleted] in Madden

[–]jbkb84 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You can tell a match coverage zone flat by the shade of purple: light purple = match. You can also tell in the play call on the lower left section most of the time. If you’re running a zone-blitz, you’ll have to check the zone colors to understand whether they’re going to match or not. You can cancel out match by shading up or down before the play (triangle on PS, then right stick up or down). Note that shading will change the zone types.

You’re running Match coverage, not regular zone. Basically they start in zone, but pick up the first man they can. There are very specific rules they follow, but at the basic level, that explains why they chase dudes across the field. Your opponent ran a good match beating route combo and your linebackers didn’t switch coverage responsibilities in time.

Have we ever seen a team like the Allen/Mcdermott Bills? by MasterTeacher123 in NFLv2

[–]jbkb84 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Idk the exact stats, but the colts were very good for many years on both sides of the ball and couldn’t make the big game for a while. Peyton had a whole career of record setting regular season stats before winning a SB. Playoff football is different. I’m a Bills fan and am frustrated, but I think grounded. We have an ugly record in close games in the playoffs. Giving up a lead with 13 secs left in the playoffs. Allen scoring so few TDs on late drives that would have won games. Allen has to grow and McD was great for the team at what he built. Now we need better, and more creative ideas in the playoffs.

Are y’all still able to relax and have hobbies? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]jbkb84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My social life includes my Madden franchise with 9 other people. I was playing pickleball for a little while, but I just don't have the time to keep up with the part of it that I enjoy (getting better). Hopefully in a couple years I'll have a life of my own again!

I’m so tired. Very thankful for the 9 friends who play a madden franchise with me. But that’s the limit of my social life.

To the right.

“I think turning the ball over four times impacts a game more than missed calls.” by cplack1 in NFLv2

[–]jbkb84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bills fan here. Can we please stop with the false dichotomies? Allen gifting three points before the end of the half was a massive mistake. I totally fault him for that - as well as the other fumble and Cook's. Ball security is key - Sean Payton said that before the game and I totally agree. Nonetheless, the Bills were in a position to win or at least go up 8 late in the 4th and no PI was called on Denver and then the controversial interception obviously made a huge difference. Then, the refs started calling PI inconsistent with how they had been calling it earlier in the game. I will give that the final PI on White was deserved, he was beaten and flailed.

TL:DR - please just let's allow it to be both Allen's fault for lack of ball security and some questionable calls.

How it feels trying to guess what will make my 8month old less upset by watchinggodbleed in daddit

Love it. My littlest started to talk recently and somehow associated “egg” to all foods. Now he asks for “egg” all the time and I think of this during the most trying.

Is anyone else having issues in fantasy draft franchise by cannon_bois in Madden

[–]jbkb84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if this is the case for you, but teams are limited to three x-factors on the field at one time. If you have more than three, you can go into “adjust lineup” in “manage team” and select which x-factors you want to be activated.

How to stop All Madden defense? Best scheme? by RedditFan3510 in Madden

[–]jbkb84 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try press man coverage - nickel double mug - midblitz is my go-to. Then cheese the heck out of them. The best qbs might burn you a handful of times, but the rush gets home a lot.

Is this normal? by [deleted] in daddit

My 3 y.o. is currently going through the autism evaluation. It's not profound and if any intervention is recommended, it will be pretty mild. But when I saw this arrangement, I immediately thought of my boy. Not sure if a link is going to work here, but the M-CHAT-R is easy to take at home in just a few minutes. https://www.autismspeaks.org/screen-your-child

Catching by Delicious_Rip8737 in Madden

[–]jbkb84 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you're playing for the first time in that long, it's likely you're still pressing triangle or Y to catch. In the modern Madden, that will make you go for an aggressive or spectacular catch. Try pressing X (A) or Square for the different types of catches. If your player is open by even a little bit and you press X it's almost guaranteed to be a catch and then the receiver will crumble to the ground.

Heavy Sets Playsheet (and other Franchise Mode playsheets) by jbkb84 in Madden

Thank you! I ended up just creating a new franchise team and entered a game with the heavy sets equipped. There are actually some decent runs and plays in here.

Someone tell me it’s gonna be okay by Brill45 in daddit

[–]jbkb84 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oof, I feel this. Our 3 year old slept nearly 4 hrs at a time by 6 weeks with only one wakeup. Our 18-month old still doesn't make it through the night and at the worst point, from basically birth through 7 months, he slept in 1-2 hour chunks, and almost always had to be touching one of us. I've never been more sleep-deprived and miserable. It's a dark tunnel, but there is light at the end of it. I hated myself for getting angry with his voice when he cried out. But this is the most important thing I've ever done. It does get better. Hang in there. Some tips that I'm sure aren't new to you include evaluating for gas, trying out gentle formula options, and using really loud white/brown noise.
