Madden NFL 25 Tips & Tutorials Guide › NFL Teams › Atlanta Falcons

Offense

Recommended Offensive Run Formation:

Strong Close (2 HB, 1 TE, 2 WR)

Pro Tip

  • Chase Coffman has 90 CIT, which is elite for tight ends.
  • QB Dominique Davis has 83 SPD and can be used to scramble for yards.
  • HB Jason Snelling has 92 TRK and is the team’s best trucking HB.

Run Left

Steven Jackson can run over any defender.

Run Middle

Jackson is best used running up the middle.

Run Right

Keep the run inside even on outside runs with Jackson.

Recommended Offensive Pass Formation:

Gun Tight Flex (1 HB, 0 TE, 4 WR)

Pro Tip

  • Sub in TE Tony Gonzalez as the third WR.
  • Sub in TE Chase Coffman as the fourth WR.
  • HB Jacquizz Rodgers is a great change-of-pace HB for third down situations.

Base Play

Setup:

  • None
  • Against zone look to the crossing mesh routes as well as the deep post.
  • Against man-to-man look to the sideline wheel and the HB wheel routes.

Man Beater

Setup:

  • Option the HB
  • Motion the left slot WR to the left
  • User-catch the motioned WR down the sideline. This is extremely difficult to defend.
  • The underneath curl routes and HB option are your secondary options.

Zone Beater

Setup:

  • Streak both outside WRs
  • Option the HB
  • Against Cover 2 and Cover 3 zones look to the corner routes.
  • Against Cover 4 zones look to the HB out of the backfield.

Blitz Beater

Setup:

  • Block the HB
  • Against zone blitzes look to the flat routes
  • Against man blitzes look to the short curls.
