What defensive player do you control?

I usually control a LB but with Minnesota not having many good defensive players (non-d line) I am struggling to pick. Maybe one of the rookie safeties. (for some reason I never like controlling Greenway). What position and what player are you looking forward to controlling?

I've been controlling the Strong Safety since Tecmo Bowl. Maybe this year I will finally do something else.

Re: What defensive player do you control?

SS due to eric berry. I can spend all day baiting the QB, stacking the box, and making big hits. Im worried about the lack of assisted tackles and .5 sacks, last year in my 5th year with berry I had 130 tackles, 6.5 sacks, 10 int, 8 FF. went on a big run for all madden pure user control. problem is this year those numbers would be more like 80-4-10-8. which is a shame.

this year I have enjoyed playing as a corner, its challenging, and it helps shut down a scary WR who is just dominating the cpu controlled corners, especially right now with the issues in coverage.

Re: What defensive player do you control?

To make the game difficult for me, I am controlling the RE or the ROLB who is rushing the passer. Since these players don't do well statistically anyway, it doesn't do harm for me to control them and possibly make their stats a little better. Plus I don't do well trying to play as a safety.

Re: What defensive player do you control?

Most games I'll choose the linebacker position - mainly middle linebacker, but from time to time I'll find myself playing either safety positions, too.

McCarthy for the win~!
