Substitution
glitch:
Thanks to being able to use any playbook in the game on offense
as well as the ability to line up any player at any position, you
can easily use this to your advantage and move the ball virtually
at will.
Regardless of what team you're using, choose the Washington Redskins
playbook and then put your best wide receiver at fifth on the wide
receiver depth chart. When on offense, run the Slants play from
the five wide receiver Shotgun formation. This will cause your best
receiver to either be matched up against one of the worst defensive
players from the other team or to be wide open outright on virtually
every play. The defensive AI will never figure this out, and you
can literally run this same play over and over again until you score
whenever you have the ball. In the rare event that the defense drops
back or adds extra defenders, simply Hot Route your best receiver
and have him run a curl route; he'll always be wide open due to
always being against one of the backups from the other team.
This
obviously works best with a team like the Vikings or Colts (who
have Moss and Harrison on their teams, respectively), but the glitch
is so cheap that you can use it with virtually any team in the NFL
and have easy success.
Easy sacks of the opposing quarterback:
By exploiting an easy to learn AI weakness, you can score a sack
on nearly every play in Madden 2004. When on defense, pick the Free
Fire blitz from within the 4-3 package. Move your two interior lineman
away from the ball one click each, move the lineback on the left
down, and move the middle linebacker a little bit to the right and
a little down.
When
the offense snaps the ball, the left tackle will go to block the
linebacker on the left, the left guard will block the defensive
end on the left, and the center will block the middle linebacker.
This will give the interior lineman on the left side a huge hole
and have a free path to the quarterback, which is a tactic that
the offensive AI will hardly ever account for and can easily lead
to several hundred sacks throughout the course of a season.
For
even better results, sub in one of the fastest players from your
defensive backfield into the position of the lineman that will have
a free path to the quarterback so that you can sack him that much
faster.
