How to QB Slide in Madden NFL 17



If you are like me and you don't look at the controls before diving into Madden -- you probably have had the QB take off and not known how to slide at the end of the play. This may have ended fine for you, it may have ended very poorly -- regardless you don't want your QB taking too many hits in football.

This year, to slide with your QB you have to hold both triggers (LT and RT) down and push x on Xbox One or square on your PS4. When to slide is all a personal preference, but I would recommend trying to avoid any big contacts with your QB since they're more prone to fumbling and an injury to your franchise QB isn't a good way to win a Super Bowl. QB slides will help you avoid the hit and keep the yards.

Until this year, if you try it you'll get a high dive and demolished if there's defenders around lol

Not this year.
Square nor X will make him slide.

On ps4 tapping square slides. R2+square does a straight reaching dive. L2 and square does the dive where they leap over the line.

You also need to be sure to be forward of the line of scrimmage.

Re: How to QB Slide in Madden NFL 17

One of my biggest gripes about the game this year is the fact they changed the QB slide button. By the time I mash down L2, R2 and square my QB has already been hit. Luckily for me I haven't had a QB fumble or even worse get injured, but I just don't understand the change considering just tapping the square button worked just fine.
