Problem Solving

"I noticed that, when my gameplans for offense and defense are not working, i am having a hard time adjusting and pinpointing where the problem areas are."


Here is a common thing that I see in threads all across the madden community. And it is something that pops up every year. Not Just in Madden 09, Madden 10, Madden 11. I can bet you that it will be a problem for people in Madden 12 and so on and so on...Its annual 


And believe me I have been there just like all of the people who have this problem.


But here is what you have to know


1. Its all in what you observe and perceive.


 If you dont know what you are seeing you cant fix it. I dont care if you have to scape goat a game here and there YOU MUST KNOW WHAT YOU ARE SEEING!!! You have to be able to say in game "He is doing this!!!"


And if you are not at that point yet (trust me it comes over time) you need to look at the after game replays (if possible) and then answer that question of "What is he doing?" okay "He is doing this."


Now even if you mastered that, that doesnt mean checkmate, you win...All that means is that you are in position to counter attack!!!


If you dont have different schemes you wont be able to fix it mid game


Knowing what they are doing means nothing if you cant attack it...Sure you will know what you have to do but unless it is a guided and planned attack (in any way shape or form...even a mini scheme) you are just going to be throwing into the wind so to speak...And you may have some success, but it will be short lived.


Because you dont have a guided plan of what you are trying to do THEY ARE BETTER AT WHAT THEY ARE DOING THAN YOU ARE AT WHAT YOU ARE TRYING TO DO!!!!


In short, expand your schme mechanics...
Dont just have 1 scheme
Dont just have a few schemes that are similar
Have schemes that are opposite of each other...and then one in the middle. This way you are better equip to adjust to anything


Example: Have a spread passing scheme, a somewhat heavy run scheme, and one thats good at both.. Make since? 


Be flexable guys...be like water
