Of course I play with GB as my team.

The last two years I used "pass balanced" but I have not had any luck on all pro with this in madden 10. I think this year requires alot more plays with automatic motion for the WR because the man defense coverage can be a bit absurd with the cpu.


I have heard that GB's own playbook is pretty good this year. (I did not like GBs playbook last year)

Which offensive playbook do you all use and why?

If you can recommend any plays that would also be good too.

My current go to offensive play is teh 5 WR set smash because I can hot route them on streaks or into a shorter slant route. I almost always end up passing to Jones or nelson in the slot.

I haven't played with a whole lot else than the Packers, but I do really like their playbook. There's are a lot of quick passes in there. Loving the slants, fast outs etc. The shotgun formation with a TE in the backfield is pretty nifty as well. Especially if you let the TE block at first and have him release from it later on.

Anyway, obviously liking the GB one so far. I like the Steelers playbook as well, from what I've seen in these madden moments. It does require a speedy guy, though, as it has a lot of pitches and outside runs.

i use packers playbook. i will write down some plays i use when i play again.

I use the balanced playbook..its got a good mix of toss, draw, and inside run plays, as well as plays that spread out the defense when passing.

---

Settings wise i heard the most realistic way is to have player settings on Pro and put all the sliders up to 100% stops the players from "sliding" to keep up with players

---

I have heard that too with the versus videos. I find it is still a bit too easy on pro with 100% but I am just not good enough to overcome much of the AI cheating on all pro.

Maybe all pro with some sliders tuned down word work though.

More than anything, I need to practice to get better.

Go pack!

I go with GB's playbook. I love just going 5 wide and winging it around. I find there aren't a good amount of successful running plays in the playbook..And the full house formation never seems to work.

---

I think full house is good for running plays but I agree that it is tough on pass plays. Normally someone misses an obvious block and there is no time to let a play develop to get a pass off.

---

I don't think it's that good for running plays..It's like the gap in the middle of the backfield just gets exploited to no end. Hall never gets there to make the block in time, and I normally get stuffed. The only play I've ever had success with in the full house is Curls, where Lee goes on a route in the flat. Thats usually pretty money..IF he catches it..Which is a big if most of the time.

---

I totally agree that players rarely pick up their blocks. On other passing formation I have seen grant in the backfield just run past the defense. Madden is really lame in how it creates close games. I think the protak systems has just amplified how obvious the game scripts things. I see the ball literally go through Driver at least once a game. It is just that pro is too easy even at 100% sliders and 360 achievements and multiplayer pretty much require all-pro.

I have done some more investigating and I hate to admit that I think NEs play book is the best for me. Reasons:

1. Tons of shotgun formations
2. More motion and delay plays and mismatches (Jennings and Driver lined up in the slots)
3. I think there is no split formation (I never use this formation anyways)

Negatives:
1. It is the patriots playbook
2. I think they use Brady's voice on the snap?????

I think I have found 1 money play so far in the 5 wr set but I cannot remember the name. I will compile more goto plays from this playbook and list them here when I find them.

If anyone has any go-to plays from this playbook, let us know
