Madden Glitch Counters

DC Glitch Counter

When you think you might get DC’d, come out for the kick off and immediately audible into the other formation. IE. Come out in on-sides kick then audible into a regular kick. The glitch only works while the ball is being zoomed in on, so if you disrupt the camera by calling an audible all that will happen is your opponent will waste his timeout.

The Safety then DC on Free Kick DC Glitch

After the cheater gets his safety, right as the punt screen comes up start jamming on the start button. This stops the DC about 85% of the time.

WR DBL Pass

Call Dime Normal CB Strike 2 deep. Just take the CB that is blitzing on the side of the DBL pass out of bounds and 5-10 yards back, he will blow up the play every time. You don’t lose over the top coverage this way, I suggest you play your FS and cover deep threats.

Motion flats glitches

Manually playmaker your DE to cover the flats, but let them get away with it a couple times first so that you get a pick off the play.

Audible glitch to mess up man coverage assignments

Just wait until they flip the play, then call Bump and Run (Y + Down on the left stick) and you should see your assignments auto-correct themselves. Alternately reset your coverage (sometimes doesn’t happen fast enough).

Pause Glitch

This one is a tricky one, if you score and the opponent intentionally goes 3 and out then punts, make SURE you get a first down on your next play. If you do
not, when they offer friendly quit wait a minimum of 15 seconds or until the timer appears before you decline.

Onsides kick glitch

If you still don’t know how to beat the one that bounces off your TE’s feet, just take control of him and move him to the side quickly. DO NOT try to recover it, you won’t be able to unless it misses your man.

If they are doing the 1 bounce tactic rush to the ball, this one there is no secret way to stop it you just need to be quick on the sticks and hold Y + RB.

Stutter Post/Skinny Post routes (Not really a glitch but the WR always gets open)

Play man coverage and shade your safeties to the middle of the field. I strongly suggest you manually cover this route, and have a QB spy just in case they try to Vick you.

Post Flags route (WR Corner Routes) (Not a glitch but annoying at times)

This is deadly against Moss, Chad, and T.O. I play Man coverage, put my DE in a contain zone, and control the safety over the top. You must have a contain route to stop this play effectively, it is better if it’s a LB but you will leave yourself open to the short routes.

WR FK Screen

Manually cover the route or put a defender in a flats zone, nothing consistently stops this other than manually covering it.

Option run

This isn’t used widely due to laterals being dropped, etc but it can be pretty hard to stop because the AI never guards the RB. I suggest putting your CB in a flats zone, keep your safety deep, and pass commit. I control my OLB on the strong side and manually cover the RB while sending the rest in on a blitz to hit the QB.

    I’ve been looking for a list of counters to these glitches. Best thing on the web. I am recreational player, so my record is basically all i have. It at least helps me not to waste time playing a full game only for nothing to happen. Thanks guys, hope they fix it in 09.
