immediate response from top madden players or who ever

[Diosel]

there is no d in madden 2006 this guy just keeps on running with curtis martin he can't be stop i try everything every run stopper he just breaks it and juke to the end zone immediate response. and on defese the jets become a super team need some thing to counter this.

[BEAT0]

what about the 'commit to run' feature? by holdin l2 than hittin r3 down you'll hav ur d go right after the ball carrier.

[Diosel]

not even this doesn't work have tried he just run up the middle the corner every where and then truck stick right into the endzone and when he is on defense his safeties are to fast and he is not blizting this happen with what ever team the jets are the team to beat

[get er done]

If i were to guess I would be willing to bet this guy is getting killed by a twins run when using man lock coverage. More games online is the only cure for this problem.

That makes the LBs blitz right?

[Diosel]

no i am trying to stop it using 4-3 storm over load nickel and 46 bear curtis is fast and strong

[hakaida]

i had some guy maul every defense i had with jamal lewis and taylor. i was really lucky to pull out the W.

[Diosel]

that does not help any advice

[rank is dumb]

I would suggest taking a good look at the players you have on the def side of the ball.. Then pick a playbook that fits your team. Every try using a zone def with the playmaker run stopper?

[Nevada_Ballin]

try not sending the entire house to stop him. Martin is bound to break tackles, i don't know the number but i'd bet his BRK rating is mid to high 90's which means the first person who hits him will likely be shed aside. Once he does that, it sounds like you have no one else to back up the initial hit.

Go back to basics, run some 4-3 Cover 2 and 3 out of the Under and the Over sets and control the OLB on the side you think he is going to. then start making adjustments from there.

Try to make the tackle manually or at least chase him down so you take him out of his running lanes and get help from the rest of your defense.

that's my 2 cents... lol

Jamal is definately a nightmare. I got a taste of him today. I'd have guys in place but he just bowls them over. I won the game 14-7, but man Lewis defied my defenders. Even the guy I controlled got bowled over. :( We'll fix that. Although I was using the Lions. I like them in this game.

It's casue the Jets are the coolest team in the world, and Curtis is a beast :)

Ok, but, Curtis isn't fast. He's got 89 speed, but he is a beast.

Try 4-3 normal, spread O-line and crash out, pinch LBs.

Also control the safety or a LB, you MUST have good stick on D to stop the run. If you don't he's just running against the CPU, minus the retarded defender your running circles with, which is gonna be a cakewalk.

As far as your troubles w/ the Jets safeties... I don't know, they're strong safety is not that good, so I'd hate to see you deal w/ the Ravens for example :)

I thinkyou just need to practice some more :)

Have you ever came to the conclusion that you just suck & need practice?

[ny1126]

i just read this whole thread and ive come to the conclusion that this guy thinks hes doin everything right but cant stop it... listen to peoples suggestions instead of saying.. oh i tried that and this happened... try it again and manually control a safety to run around the corner and keep him from breaking it outside

[CapnKill]

Well put :)

[mnhurricane]

lab a run nano
that is how i stopped teh run. And now that i know if they are throwing or running, you cant run on me cause of the run nano, so youll have to win through the air

[steelersrock]

I know what you mean, except I'm on the opposite side, I'm the person that runs and can't get stopped. Bettis and Staley are the best. Bettis breaks every tackle and Staley well, is just good.

[djKianoosh]

against teams that like to run, just come with a variety of run blitzes from the 46-Normal formation. experiment with DL and LB shifts, or if you dont have 46 and use 4-3, bring the safety up. no matter what you must be good at controlling one of your linebackers, especially the outside LBs. I usually control my weakside LB and try to run around blockers and come in to make the tackle. I also make sure to contain QBs rolling out or flat routes by slot receivers or backs. basically, pick a player, play sound D, and hope to limit his runs to 2 or 3 yard gains. eventually he'll have 3rd and long and that's when you have to stop him. get your D off the field, no matter what. eventually you will score and he'll abandon the run. then you have him beat. easy right? now go practice!
