If you can't use singleback because of nanos, then that's on you, not the game. I don't have too many problems against the nanos running singleback unless I am taking way too long to make reads but that is my fault.

How is blitzing not fair? Because it works frequently? I have plays on offense that will work against zone and man pending adjustments. Is that not fair either because it can always move the chains against bad players? Because nanos are the defensive equivalent to offensive money plays.

Why is it that it's ok to have plays that will almost always work against man coverage, but it's cheating to have plays that work against Singleback formations? And alot of nanos are not even that good without really sacrificing coverage. The goal of an offense is to get a receiver ONE ON ONE. Alot of players will only throw to receivers who are WIDE OPEN. Those are the people who get victimized most by nanos because they will keep dropping back when they could have thrown the ball the moment they got it.

Yes, nanos prevent players from running some of their plays. That's what football is about, limiting what your opponent can do and making him adjust to something he doesn't want to. Football isn't about who is the best player when both guys are in their comfort zones.

Excellent point. I find myself trying to find the wide open man sometimes. It all comes down to position.

I do it sometimes too, that's usually when I get sacked.

This one is easy: I have NOTHING to contribute because I'm still learning the game. Since nanos seem to be the Holy Grail of Madden, then why not ... bah, nevermind. Most here don't get it.

I thought, incorrectly, this was a Madden community. A select group of players who look to share and improve their tactics, both offensively and defensively. I was clearly wrong. You make INCORRECT assumptions of me, even though I CLEARLY ask for defensive advice which does not include nanos in a subsequent post. You rag on each other, with childish attempts to call each other out. Obviously, maturity is a rare commodity here.

I'd be laughing right now if most reactions here weren't so ridiculously wrong, puerile and divisive. Allow me to try that again for the shallow end of the gene pool ... on second thoughts, it ain't worth it, yo.

Nanos are unfair because they work an unrealistic amount of the time.

If i HAVE to play a 2 back set or run shotgun just to to be able to take a 3 step drop against the same play over and over again,That's not real football.

u don't have to run 3 back 2 pass the ball i run sb tight and trips bunch frequently and those are my primary formations ask michura i have no problem dealing w/nanos there's certain things u can do to let ur hb block the blitzing lb and if he's nano blitzing constantly then hit the middle up and this year they loosened up the bump and run i think for the sole purpose of users complaining abou getting nano'd u just have to find ways to get the ball out of your hands quickly even if it's 2-3 yds a pop you can't get everything at once

I think it's fair to say this. Yes, nanos are in real life. And yes, they can be countered in Madden. But no, it is not realistic that the offensive line cannot counter the nanos themselves. Slide protection would be a good addition and make the game more realistic overall. That should end the discussion but I'm sure it won't.

Ripcordless, ok, you've finally got me to give you some strategy. Engage eight sends eight men in an all out, ferocious blitz. Take this one to the lab and add it to your gameplan.

They only don't if YOU don't. I like to attack defenses from under center. My favorite sets are in Singleback, I Form, and Strong I. In SB, I attack nanos by passing while moving the pocket. I set up my blocking scheme: left, right, or deep. The pocket forms for my QB in those spots because I set it up that way. You can also drop straight back in SB verses the best of nanos. Motion the HB - and hot read him to block when he gets close to the QB. Then, motion another reciever - hot read him to block when he gets close to the QB - then motion him to the A Gap and hike. In Strong I, the FB is sitting in the A Gap. If he's blocking, he'll pick it up. If your opponent brings a single man nano from the opposite side, just move the QB behind the FB after the snap - and he'll turn and get him. If he's sending heavy nanos and you're in Strong I, motion the HB and hot read the HB to block when he's close to the QB. Then, motion him back, and his first move will attack the weakside A Gap. I form works the same, but either use QB motion to help them out - or motion one - block him by the QB - then motion him back. I prefer just to use QB movement, but nanos have weaknesses. You can also quick throw a motioned flat back to throw in a wrinkle. Its easy yards verses man coverage. Then, hit the outside fade and manually undercut and catch verses zone. Madden 08 is a very offensive game. If you can't score in it, then you aren't using your noodle....even with nanos.
