In this Madden Plays breakdown, we look at the one of our favorite man defensive setups. The 46 Normal – Inside Blitz is an old school Cover 0 defense that’s been in Madden for a long time. Over the year’s there have been several versions of how to bring inside and outside pressure. For this Madden breakdown, we show a few ways to bring inside and outside pressure.

Quick Set-Up:

  1. Hot route the middle linebacker to bluff blitz.
  2. Move the middle linebacker between the strong side defensive tackle and left end.
  3. Release the middle linebacker and switch to another defender.
  4. Call press (optional).

Coaching Points:

  1. The pressure is designed to come from the right end.
  2. If there is an or star left end, there is a good chance he will also get pressure on the quarterback.
  3. There is no guarantee that pressure will always come from the right end with this setup.
  4. Since this is Cover 0 defense, it’s a high risk/high reward defensive setup.
  5. By adding one defender dropping into , it helps take a way quick passes over the middle.

Final Thoughts:

The 46 Normal – Inside Blitz is one of those old school man defenses that always will bring some type pressure on quarterback in every edition of Madden. The one we showed in this Madden breakdown is just one of many ways to bring pressure.
