The Lost Art Of Smart Routing

Today we will talk about the lost art of smart routing.

First of all we must discuss what smart routing is. Smart routing is the extending of your wide receivers pass routes to the first down marker. To find out how to execute this you can look in your madden/ncaa football manual.

It seems as if people just dont use this feature for its intended purpose. Now people only use smart routes to create weird routes. But they are doing themselves a great injustice.

But on a crucial 3rd down play a smart route could be your best friend. THE RECEIVER RUNS TO THE 1ST DOWN MARKER!!!! Take advantage of it.

Use that smart route to extend a curl route (very easy to execute vs man coverage)
Use that smart route to extend a deep in route or an deep out route

That smart route could be the difference between a punt or moving the chains...USE IT!!!!

and dont just use it to create weird routes ;)
