Overview
- This is Version 3 of our Dollar Scheme, the other versions still work, just not my main set up!
- Auto Alignment: Base | Auto Flip: Off
- KOs are ideal for this Defense, but we can make this work in Regs & CFM
Tip: These defense is a Concept that can be applied to more than just Dollar. Watch the videos all the way through.
Set Up
- Pinch Everything (Global Pinch)
- Crash Defensive Line Down
- Shade Coverage Underneath
- Blitz User
Tip: Standing near the Defensive Line with your user like I do in the video. This will make a huge difference in your Sheds.
Overview
- This is great at defending Deep & the Flats, but we're weak in the Intermediate Areas of the field
- Make minor adjustments, don't change everything to stop 1 play
- Adjusting Hook Curl Depth is a secret tactic few people know about
- Watch this video, it's important!
Tip: I love running my Base Defense, and then taking one Defender (usually a Hook Curl) and manning him up onto the most dangerous WR
Set Up
- Pinch Defensive Line
- Press Coverage (Do not Global Pinch)
- Shade Coverage Underneath
- Adjust the Top Left Safety
- Blitz your User
Tip: This defense is great at attacking Pass Heavy Offenses. This Blitz is best when you don't have any Pass Rushing Abilities on your Defensive Line, as those Trigger Animations that mess up the Blitz
Overview
- Your user should start on the side that's Opposite of where you think the run is going
- We're looking to Loop across the Defense to make a play with our User, or free up at CPU Defender
- This concept works in almost every Madden
- RPO Defense is included in the second half of this video. It includes a specific defense and hot fixes
Tip: While this can take a little practice, the value from being able to run this correctly is huge. I run Dollar against nearly EVERY formation, regardless if it's Heavy or not. For more Run D, checkout our "Pro Tips" section
