Last night I was playing an indivual that used the raiders. The entire game he just lob up to moss. Every pass play was to moss.I can take the slants no problem, but when you just throw it to him with 2-4 defenders around him and catches it; that gets me boiling. I tryed all types of d to stop it . It was the first time i come acoss a player that did this crap. If there is anybody out there that can give me advice on how to stop it, that will be great.

You take control of a db and jump up and intercept it thats works best for me.

You know what he is doing so defend against it. If you are playing with a team that has corners with decent speed. Match him against Moss on any man coverage plays that you run. Manually control your safety, and on any pass be looking for moss over the top. Always use the swat button to bat the ball away. Don't go for the int. because Moss will out jump you every time. Also bring a lot of heat against these guys. If alls they do is throw deep fly patterns, don't give them enough time to get their wideouts down the field.

Hit stick moss before the ball gets there take your penalty and be happy when you knock moss out of the game. :D JK

thnks guys that is great info.When you say take over the cb or ss do you want me takeing over the whole entire time, or just when the ball gets close to the wr click on the cb and swat. Right

I was talking about playing with the safety during the entire play. Usually if you are switching to the CB mid play against Moss, you are already burned unless you are playing with the Broncos and have Bailey covering him. The only way to recover with a slower cornerback is if the ball is underthrown. This is also the reason that I suggested bringing a blitz. A lot of guys back pedal against the blitz, and this will cause them to underthrow a lot of deep passes.
