On running downs, 4-3-DE Contain should do the trick. Make sure that you consistently put a spy on him so that he can't scramble you into oblivion. Playing Against This Team: Steve McNair is a serious weapon, and you'll have to account for him in more ways than one. Control Bulluck in the linebacking corps or take charge of Carter on the D-line and rip your way around the edge to tattoo the QB. On defense, you can stick to the 4-3 and play Cover 2 or Contain packages to mange most thing.
A better option generally is Bennett underneath the coverage. Get the ball to Mason deep if you can, but beware of safety help. Pass out of this formation to Mason on the Mason Option.Īfter you get the defense to key on the run, go to plays like Singleback-Big Twin WR: PA Rollout to get downfield. The Singleback-Normal: Titans Slash is a good play, as is the HB Sprint. George does well out of the Singleback set. Playing as This Team: Eddie George still plays for the Titans in Madden, so you'll want to hand the ball to him often and let him create.
