Well, if you’re tryin’ to cause a fumble in Madden 24, you gotta know a few things. It ain’t no easy task, but if you get it right, it can make a big difference in the game. Now, let me tell ya how to get that ball outta their hands, like how you’d grab a chicken when it’s runnin’ ‘round the yard!
First off, you gotta learn about the “hit stick.” It’s real simple, but you gotta time it just right, or else it ain’t gonna do much. What you wanna do is, when you’re close to that ball carrier, press the button to use the hit stick—on most consoles, that’d be the right thumbstick. You push it right in the direction you want, and BAM! If you hit ’em good, that ball’s gonna fly out like a sack of potatoes off a cart!

But hold on a minute! There’s more to it than just hittin’ ‘em hard. You gotta think like you’re chasing after a pig in the pen—gotta get close first! Don’t try to hit from too far away or you’ll just whiff. The closer you get to the ball carrier, the better chance you got to force that fumble.
Second thing you need to know is about “strip tackles.” Now this here is a trick I learned the hard way, but it’s mighty useful. A strip tackle is when you push the button to tackle, but you also press the button to try and strip the ball out of their hands. It’s like tryin’ to snatch that last biscuit before the others get to it. You gotta press the button for the tackle and the one for the strip at the same time. Timing’s key! If you hit it right, the ball will be out, and you’ll have it in your hands like a big ol’ turkey leg.
Now, don’t go thinkin’ that just by pressin’ buttons you’ll be makin’ fumbles left and right. No sir! You need to be aware of the situation. You gotta know when to go for the hit stick and when to go for the strip. If the ball carrier’s runnin’ full speed, you might have better luck with a hit stick. But if they’re slowin’ down or tryin’ to stiff-arm, a strip tackle might do the trick.
Another thing you should know is that some players just got more fumble problems than others. If you’re playin’ against a big ol’ tough guy, like a fullback or a quarterback, you ain’t gonna knock the ball out as easy as you would on a little wide receiver. But hey, that don’t mean you shouldn’t try!
- Know your players: Some of ‘em have a better chance of fumbling, especially if they ain’t got a good ball security rating.
- Hit at the right angle: You gotta time your hit stick right, or else you’ll just bounce off ‘em like a tin can off a wall.
- Strip with caution: If you go for a strip and miss, you might end up lettin’ the other team get away with a big play.
Also, don’t forget about the fumble recovery! Now, this here’s just as important as makin’ the fumble happen in the first place. Once the ball’s out, you gotta be ready to grab it before the other team does. You’ll have to use your reflexes, like when you’re tryin’ to catch a cat in a box. If you miss it, the other team could scoop it up and be off to the races.
And don’t go thinkin’ you can just rely on these tricks all the time, alright? Madden 24’s a game where a lot of factors come into play, and sometimes, no matter how hard you hit or how much you try to strip, that ball just ain’t gonna come out. But don’t get discouraged. Keep at it, keep practicing, and soon enough, you’ll be the one causing fumbles all over the place like a pro!
So to sum it up: get close to your opponent, use the hit stick, try out the strip tackle, and always be ready to recover that fumble when it happens. You gotta practice these moves until they’re second nature, like drivin’ a tractor down the dirt road. It might take a while, but you’ll get the hang of it, and when you do, you’ll be takin’ that ball right outta their hands before they even know what hit ‘em!
