I played this guy online ranked 134 and all game long he used BnR, so I ran the ball and threw to the tight end and eventually won the game but do any of you guys have any good routes to go against bump n run. I have used bnr against many online gamers and it seems to be alot of failure unless u get pressure on the QB , and i use LSU with the best corner on the game and he still doesn't jam long enough to allow me to get a pass rush or he will get beat deep. When i played this guy he used FSU and he would BnR and i could play action and his CB was STILLLLLL bumping my reciever , he would AB his olb and put extreme pressure on me but alot of times i bought time with the play action but even though my reciever never could got separation. Is there a trick to doing the bump in run like in madden 04 where you could audible after calling BnR and your Cb would start bumping further down the field ?? Im not understanding if this was just some random BS or some trick he was using b/c i couldn't get any separation , heck half the time my QB threw it 3 miles in front expecting my reciever to be down the field.

Have u tried motioning ur WR to throw to him, BNR dont work on motion WR's, atleast I dont think.
Or throw to ur backs out of the backfield, they dont get BNR'd either.

Superstick,
my boy plays with FSU, and for they have a lot of speed on defence. I have the same problem with the bumping when i play him, and to make matters worst his front four seem to always get in. What i started doing is hitting my tight end or running back. Also attack his slot, and his # 2 cornerback. He seems to be rattled easily when i play against him. You can also try the shotgun formation with the 4th reciever is in the backfield behind the other 2 recievers. He doesnt get bumped at all, i think you may find this formation in either florida sem. playbook or michagan's (cant remember)
