Answer 3

K.

I've been in the same position ur in rite now other than number 2.

1. Be the defensive END or TACKLE. if ur the defensive tackle, u will normally have to be pressing R1 to get pass the offensive lineman. If ur the defensive end, u will normally be having to press L1 to get pass the offensive lineman.

2. UNTIL YOU GET GOOD AT PLAY CALLING, ALWAYS ASK MADDEN

Once you realize wat difference the plays make and everything, defend based upon the team ur playing. For instance, if ur playing the vikings, u will want to play man as much as possible. Man defenses are much better to stop the run than zone defenses. You will also find that u should blitz two guys other than ur lineman to thoroughly stop the running game.[trust me bout everything i say bout the running game and how to stop it. when i play online i get round 90-100+ yards to bout 5-20 normally(and i use the raiders)]

Against a team that's passing oriented, play more zone, but mix it up a little and and blitz to pressure the qb...

3. Leave that up to the computer more so than not especially if u have good db/safeties and especially if it's one on one. but if it's 2 on 1, control one of ur guys and try to intercept it, becuz if u don't then the computer will probably bat it down or intercept it.

well, my PSN is mg_bball24 so add me to just play or for more help, and that goes for everyone else on Yahoo Answers...

Answer 4

hahaha dont bother  

Answer 5

just curious, do you know anything about football?

if u r jsut a beginner, just put the game on easy play/beginner and the computer can pick the good plays for you. the O button is to switch players. a good position to play on if ur a beginner is defensive line.  to stop a WR from caching a ball, just switch to the player who is guarding the WR and tap X to swat the ball down.

good luck!
