Outside Runs

[May15]

I have problem with outside runs,i got stopped everytime when i'm trying to run counter or pitch or offtackle to the outside,running inside is OK but i got loss of yards or minimal gain on that,i'm using authentic's sliders(sry my english)

Not enough info to be able to help; what type of backs are you trying it with, what formations are you running it out of and what formations are you trying to run outside again?

I'm using danny woodhead who has 93 speed and 90 acc. and I ussualy use I-Form Tight and Singleback and most offtackles and pitch to the weak sides,i'm playing franchise so i don't know the formation of Defense

ive noticed iutside runs that you need to read the outside backer or end and if he goes inside continue outside but if he goes upfield cut it back towards the o-line and it has worked for me

Be sure to adjust your line and maybe motion a receiver in or out or move the TE to the side your running. Madden really makes you adjust your protection this year if you want any kind of success.

I like to block left or right on outside runs, and aggressive on anything up the middle. Just take a peek at the defense run where they aren't and adjust your line accordingly.

thanks for advices,I'm using that O-Line adjustment with aggresive or left or right and it's better

I know this sounds crazy but I can't figure out how to shift my line or shift my defense prior to the snap. The manual says to press the R3 button to pull up the options, but when I do that the only options are to select audibles or hide. I've see it before but for some reason I can't figure this out. I'm wondering if I have some kind of setting turned off or something.

I'm a traditionalist. I use the old interface for adjustments because I beleive the Strategy Pad sucks... IF you abandon the default Strategy Pad method and have the "Strategy Pad Quick Links" option set to ON it's much easier to shift and far more intuitive, IMO. So disregard the rest of this message if you choose to continue using the Strategy Pad:

R1/RB = LB shifting
L1/LB = D-Line shifting
Triangle/Y = Coverage adjustments

Also, be sure to turn on the on-screen menus to show you exactly what your options are to remove confusion.

Hope this helps.
