Glad I watched whole video…halfway through I was thinking “just move the LB back a couple steps” lol. Versus average players this defense is super effective. Called it 9k times this year

[@hebby1220]

I think I’m at 8k calls😭

[@christopherembra1349]

It to me is the bet coverage literally have to vert hooks , 3 deep zones two outside theirs then a zone in the middle of the field and you can cloud flat or hard flat for flats

[@thabruhfrom9444]

I took what I’ve learned from watching you and created my own scheme, similar, out of nickel 33 cub with the safety at nickel package. I user the ROLB or MLB based on the play. Cover 2 is my most called play. I usually roll the coverage and man up the MLB against 3x1 sets, but against any bunch or 2x2 I can run an a gap blitz out of cover 2 only rushing 4 (similar to the dollar a gap blitz). This way, all the cover 2 match principles are still in affect.

[@parkerdierks8188]

Been running Tampa 3 for years! Truly my favorite coverage to work out of by far.

[@christhompson3172]

Definitely my favorite since Madden 20 when abilities were introduced

[@zacherymassey6352]

I've been running some of this for a bit now. Subing in a CB into the nickle over G while swapping SS to get my over top in the right position. I've had to go away From dollar in the new running meta. This and I'll mix in A Gap blitz off adjustments. And user the holes in the summer. Then pressure off edge with CB blitz. It's been starting to cook. But basically this Tampa 3 works very well. Especially in long distance with flat zones dropped back.

[@julianstepney5034]

Just use ss blitz 2 and put the slot in the deep third. The two LBs are in the vertical hooks

[@mystery_guest]

I've been subbing in a CB (sherman) for the third safety and putting him on middle third and then usering the MLB to cover the vert flat

[@DirtRacerProductions]

With almost everyone having their own assignments taken care of here, who is the best player to user while running this coverage?

[@janolen922]

Then they spam mesh middle of the field open after spy

[@BingeymanIG]

I always drop the slot corner into the middle third and revis has been making PLAYS

[@abdirazaqadeys2460]

ZAN why are you sharing my sauce 😭😢😂

[@TheyCallHimMarvelous]

Yea Zan!!!

[@hannibalhect0r]

Brilliant!

[@ricoross8315]

Bro I'm new to this madden stuff how can I purchase some of the things ur talking about

[@PHANT0M3O2]

I run a different variation of a Tampa 3. It’s pretty solid, specially against people who run the same plays

[@timothyrandle1501]

Yessuah this all I run good stuff 👍🏾

[@xm3tHxm1k3x]

Where did tampa tres disappear too? Where he had t0 com back lol

[@ISpeakFacts09]

My vertical hooks don’t match …. And yes I have Match on 😅

[@HezikyahBlackIsraelite]

Thanks, Zan. I knew something was wrong. I been getting smoked.

[@jaivionjones2205]

What does protect the sticks mean

[@christopherembra1349]

The only thing is this coverage doesn’t work on bunch off set that’s the only thing might have to man some stuff up on the fly but I know for sure Tampa 3 match doesn’t work on double post

[@mzqueen28]

Does match have to be on to run this?

[@quit-thegamer2447]

Looks like you gave him an extra four yards and that made the difference in playing the middle. I would just SUB in more speed.

[@tears2040]

Use Tampa 2, win most my games. User LOLB, deep blue MLB blitz/flats ROLB, corners flat/mid, safeties middle/out to cover corners.
4 Lineman attacking QB. Extremely difficult to beat

[@TheRealMobileGaming]

i’ve been running this since january lmao

[@mmi4745]

You were late

[@baileyjames9523]

Who do the vertical hooks match to?

[@thabruhfrom9444]

Vert hooks match the slot WR, or the middle WR against 3x1 sets.

[@hebby1220]

Call me crazy but why not just put the slot corner in the the middle third and user the mid read because the slot corner still sprints back in the middle third and it gives you a 4 man pass rush and still have a very hook on the feild.

[@thabruhfrom9444]

You'll have one less player playing match therefore causing an opening.

[@b.e.r.nnetwork8251]

It's a shame these defenses aren't already in the game.

[@LordVegeta318]

Whos the user

[@brianwilliam4870]

Who watching the RB

[@ryeatplays7782]

what i’m saying !!! but probably your user plus other vert hook

[@mutlips4443]

IC3 ❤

[@da_hit_stick]

yes sir

[@kamikazecomedy]

Man... u Killin me smalls...why sharing our secrets bro 😂 jk jk Rock on brother

[@chrismiles7524]

This isn’t a secret. It’s been in madden forever

[@Unclelurkem]

​@chrismiles7524 it isn't just common knowledge tho, alot of people get all their plays from RUclips. Without RUclips most people wouldn't be any good

[@user-fm8en8jm9t]

​@@Unclelurkemyou mean ppl like u 😂

[@Unclelurkem]

@user-fm8en8jm9t whatever you say dude.

[@TheKRL78]
