Use the Madden NFL 23 Defensive Play Finder With Search to find playbooks, formations, and plays by using the search feature. For example, if you are looking for a zone blitz defense called Nickel 2 Trap, type in Nickel 2 Trap in the search bar. The Madden NFL 23 Defensive Play Finder With Search will quickly list every defensive playbook that has the Nickel 2 Trap in it.
Madden Guides Tip: use the advanced feature at the bottom where it says Formation Set and type in the formation you want to narrow the play down to. For example, if you type in Nickel 2-4, it will show all the playbooks that just have Nickel 2-4 – Nickel 2 Trap in it.
If you are looking for a specific play type in Madden NFL 23, the Madden NFL 23 Defensive Play Finder With Search can find it. For example, if you are looking for man defenses that have Blitz Zone Cov 3, simply type in Blitz Zone Cov 3. The Madden NFL 23 Defensive Play Finder With Search will quickly list every defensive playbook that has Blitz Zone Cov 3 in it.
Note: it may take a few seconds to load all the data, depending on your internet connection speed and computer processor.
