don't get fooled by all those audibles, hot routes he calls every play. make audibles to your defense, he might get confused or somthing (does that even happen in Madden>)
well......don't blitz him to much, he's a good QB who's accurate.

I managed to slow down manning focusing on taking away the deep pass (which still didn't work constantly). Anyway, I went from getting blown away every time I play the Colts to losing only 27-24 last time.

What worked a lot was using a dime formation 2 man under and hot route the nickel and dime corners to short zones, leaving the 1 and 2 receivers with man and the 2 safeties roaming. I would control the MLB and put him where I needed him whether it was to cover deep middle or the flats. I came out of this package a lot and changed it up here and there, and added cover 4 once in awhile to change it up and every now and then a blitz. I think overall mixing it up and covering deep helps.
