What do you guys feel is the best or most versatile formation in the game and why? I got two shotgun ace and pistol Ace. Those two tight ends are big in run game and pass game over the middle. Unless someone is using glitch blitzes you get good pass protection as well
5WR
Wanna blitz? First down, thank you. Wanna play Cover 3? Yawn, first down. Cover 0 with blitz and bump and run? Yawn, TD.
I been messing with 5 wide as well but out of empty spread to incorporate the option also. Do you mix it up with different 5 wide or have on formation you stay in all game?
Pretty much just motion people to create the new formations. Overloading one side to isolate the other or something like that. It's all about running the slants, drags, crosses, etc and just abusing whatever coverage they decide to bring.Quote:

But the best, most versatile is SG Normal. It has great designed runs (inside zone, counter, QB wrap, QB power), options (dart R/O, counter R/O but I prefer the dart, midline option, inverted veer, WR motion option left and right, load option, speed option), jet sweep, HB and QB draws if you want. On top of that you can motion the lone WR who's on the strong side to the other side of the field (usually taking his CB with him) so you've got 3 WRs (and corresponding CBs) on 1 side and 0 on the other side (which is the side of QB wrap and power as well as the HB counter). To my knowledge it's the only SG formation that let's you do this.
On top of the awesome array or rushing attacks, SG Normal is one of the most versatile passing SG 11 personnel formations with lots of great concepts.
Yes I agree normal has great variety especially having 3 different qb run plays as well if you decide to motion the rb out, I also agree with dive being a big time run but buck sweep read option can do some damage as well out of normal hb wk
Double Tight Ace. No loaded sides to give away strength. Good for passing and running. No huddle.
GTFO you havent played the game in years like you said and dont know shitQuote:
