Okay, so, I’ve been messing around with Madden 23, trying to figure out the best run offense, you know? It’s been a real journey, let me tell you.
Started off, I jumped straight into games, playing with different teams, different playbooks. I tried everything from the classic I-formation to those fancy spread offenses. I was all over the place, no real plan, just winging it. Wins were coming, losses were coming. I got nowhere with this.

Then, I decided to get a little more organized. I started paying attention to the defensive playbooks, which team’s defenses were tough against the run. And I found that the Dallas playbook is a real pain in the neck when you’re trying to run the ball. So, I thought, “Okay, avoid teams that use that, or at least be ready for it.”
Next, I dove into the offensive playbooks. I spent hours in practice mode, just running play after play. I tested out different formations, different running plays. It was tedious, man, I’m not gonna lie. But, I started to see some patterns.
- Certain plays were consistently gaining yards, no matter what defense I was up against.
- Other plays looked good on paper but were getting blown up all the time.
- It is important to pay attention to defensive playbooks.
After all that trial and error, I finally settled on a few running plays that seem to work really well. It is also not a bad idea to have a playbook to enhance the scheme you know. I learned how to read the defense before the snap, figure out where the weak points are, and then hit them hard.
So, yeah, that’s my story. It wasn’t easy, but I think I’ve finally cracked the code on the best run offense in Madden 23. I keep doing this and hope I can get more wins. If you’re struggling with your running game, hopefully, my experience can give you some help.
