Tackle after play

Helmet to helmet
Before each game two of the home team's players will do helmet to helmet.
Get to line of scrimmage faster
After selecting your play, hold A to get to the line of scrimmage faster. This is useful if you use a hurry-up offense at the end of the game.
Recommended offense
In order to create more open passes you should try and set "picks" for your other receivers in order to get them wide open. You can do this by controlling a wide receiver yourself and putting a pick on a defender; or you can set a crosses, posts, curls, or flys by hot-routing other receivers near by. This usually works, and often has good results if you set the picks correctly. This is especially helpful when in need of a first down, near the endzone, or for a conversion.
Recommended defense
If you control one of your linemen and hold [Left Analog-stick Down] before the snap, you will get a better jump on trying to get to the quarterback or fullback.
