    Offensive Scheme

    Is anyone else finding it hard to put together an offensive scheme against users because of the man-lock feature? I have working idea of how to read the defense pre-snap as far as narrowing down what it is they might be in if they dont make adjustments but if they do then it becomes a nightmare to get the right routes out there. I was just wondering if anyone might have a quick tip on how to overcome this.

    the number one thing I am looking at right now is whether the D is in press or off coverage. I also check the safeties alignment and look for a blitz but my play call is mainly based off of the CB depth and my reads are based off of safety alignment and blitz read.. Im still struggling also but this has helped some

    set your play up to have man beaters on one side and then zone beaters on the other side. when u read the defense checkdown to your options.

    I do this to a point but the problem is that the hot routes some what limit this especially if the player takes away the zone flood. Definitely going to be even more challenging once more nanos come out and you have less time to read the defense post snap.
