Okay, so I’ve been messing around with different defensive setups in Madden 24, trying to find that sweet spot, you know? I really wanted to nail down a solid 3-4 defense, and I think I’ve finally cracked it. Let me walk you through what I did.
First off, I started by experimenting with a bunch of different playbooks. I simmed through a whole bunch of franchises, pushing them all the way to midseason and then simulating week by week to see what worked and what didn’t. It was a bit of a grind, but it gave me a good feel for the different styles.
I played around with different schemes too – West Coast, Zone Run, you name it. But then I stumbled upon the Disguise 3-4, and that’s where things started to click. I paired it with the Atlanta (ATL) offense, just to keep things interesting.
Finding the Right Playbook
Now, the playbook. This was crucial. After trying out a ton of them, I found that the Ravens’ playbook was the best for a 3-4 defense. No contest. It’s got some really good zone coverages, which is exactly what I was looking for.
I spent hours just running plays, seeing how my defense reacted to different offensive formations. I tweaked the depth chart, swapped out players, and adjusted play calls until I felt like I had a good handle on things.
- Tried out different playbooks.
- Settled on the Ravens’ playbook for its strong zone coverage.
- Experimented with the Disguise 3-4 scheme.
- Combined it with the ATL offense.
It wasn’t easy, and there were definitely times when I felt like I was just banging my head against the wall. But eventually, things started to come together. My defense started to feel more solid, more reliable. I was getting more stops, forcing more turnovers, and generally just feeling way more confident in my defensive play-calling.
So, yeah, that’s my journey to finding the best 3-4 defense in Madden 24. It took some time, some effort, and a whole lot of trial and error, but I’m pretty happy with where I ended up. If you’re struggling with your defense, give the Ravens’ playbook and the Disguise 3-4 a try. You might be surprised at how well it works!
