NO PASS RUSH!!

[Rhino64]

Are they going to patch this my D-Line gets no pass rush at all and the computer QB just sit back and chills till someone is wide open but on the other hand when i am on offence they get to me in like 2 sec... they have got to even this up.. any suggestion anyone?? and don't say blitz bc i should be able to get pressure with my front four!

thanks in advance

You won't get much pressure by blitzing either.

But, this has been said a million times and will get sent to the gripes thread soon.

The fact that it is INDEED a huge issue, is that the CPU gets to you easily with just 4 or when they blitz. When we try to do the same, our DL gets abused by AVERAGE OL and if we BLITZ, regardless of how many we send, MAGICALLY they are all picked up and the QB does his thing.

Now, dont get me wrong. I do get sacks, but ONLY with the player i directly control. The others under AI control NEVER get to the QB. If you watch replays, you will see COUNTLESS times, you AI controlled DL/LB will literally STOP cold right before they get to the QB as if they were wearing a RED no contact jersey.
That is INDEED an indication of a programming GOOF which "should" be able to be fixed.

This is definitely an issue. I played a full season and Peppers had 2 sacks.

The one thing you can do is lower their pass block and control a defense end yourself. I currently have 8 sacks with my other defensive end and a ton of hurries in week 7.

I am getting realistic numbers in the 9 games I have played. I do blitz about half the time. My LB sacks aren't that high but DL is doing fine.

I have one guy with 10 sacks DE, another with 7 DT, then it drops to like 4 but over all my numbers are within reason. The DE I am using only has like 4.

I am playing with a 4-3 team, I do hear there is issues with 3-4 teams but am unsure if that is simmed or played games.

i have not had a problem with this.

re= Mario Williams dt= Tommie Harris le= shawne merriman

i had 22 sacks with Mario

18 sacks from Tommie

and 16 sacks with merriman

and i played all the games no Sim.

Set your pass rush slider to 100 and the CPU pass blocking to 10 this will allow you to get pressure with your front 4 alone and for blitzes to work better as well.

I just realized that when DE's come off the line the tackle don't hardly back up at all. In real life as soon as the ball moves the LT and RT shuffle back to create the pocket which makes the space between the DE and QB smaller. But, in Madden this doesn't happen so if or when you break off the O-lineman you still have to sprint a few yards to the QB.
