of why you want to use your zone drops the way you do so we're going to come out here and we're going to kind of run a little bit of a concept here where you have a streak a flat and a corner route it's something that's very popular now how you want to utilize your zone drops is we know that we have our flats going NUMBER_TOKEN yards back that's this route here now what we want to do especially when we're going against a bunch look is we want to go ahead and put a curl flat on the same side we get on our player we press a or x and then we go right on the left stick and i want to show you what happens here i want you to watch you see how the flat route is covered and the corner route is covered we throw it to the corner and we get a pick and we do get our feed inbounds actually and i'm going to go to the replay here and show you what's going on now you're going to see gun bunch in most of your games it's the most popular offensive formation so you always want to kind of bracket the bunch side of the field the reason we drop our flats back to NUMBER_TOKEN yards is because if we don't this corner route is gonna get open because the safety is gonna run with this streak and just in general the safeties in cover NUMBER_TOKEN are not very good in this year's game so you need to drop these flats back NUMBER_TOKEN sometimes even NUMBER_TOKEN yards and you can see what he does is he gets back there and he's able to make a play on that corner out now the other zone that we manually kind of adjusted down here which was the curl flat that is set to five yards and watch how he takes away the flat so if we were to throw this flat route he would either get no yards or the defender would jump this for a pick so when you're playing a cover two this is how your zone drops help you you have something in the flat you have something over top and you have this going back to the sideline to defend the corner out or it could be a crossing route and you're taking that stuff away now if we look at a cover three we can do something similar here we can go ahead and shade our defense down which we do by pressing wire triangle down on the right stick that gives us our hard flat now remember this is going to drop about NUMBER_TOKEN yards back and then we can go ahead and take our yellow zone over here we press a or x on this guy right on the left stick and now we have put him in to that curl flat assignment and again if we run this type of a concept you're gonna see flats covered corner routes covered i'm just gonna go ahead and throw the ball away here they're taking it away because of how we set our zone drops but one of the best things to do with this is to use the actual cover for show two probably the safest defense to run right now in the game so now we're in a cover four and we can kind of basically do the same thing here we can go ahead and take this guy that's free over here and we can put him into the hard flat or we can shade our defense down have this guy in his heart flat and then drop this guy into the curl flat we can kind of do it either way it doesn't really matter which guys you have dropping out but the kind of principle is the same we want
