Contain Assignments – Before the snap hold Left Trigger and press RB or hold L2 and Press R1 on PS4.
Watch Out for Double Teams – When you are in contain, there is a chance that you'll go up against a double team, which leaves room for the quarterback to run for a big gain.
Use the QB Spy – When you have a QB Spy you can choose to send him after the mobile QB even if you aren't playing as that player by pushing in on the right stick.

Combine these three Madden 16 tips to become a defense known for shutting down the run.

Play the Ball for Picks and Swats

When you need to prevent your opponent from getting any yards, playing the ball is what you need to do. You can use this option to disregard the receiver and focus on knocking down the ball or getting an interception. After the QB throws the ball press B on Xbox One or Circle on PS4 to switch to the defender and then press Y or Triangle to focus on and play the ball instead of the receiver.

Play the Receiver for Stops and Drops

On defense another important option is to play the receiver. After the throw, switch to your defender and then press A on Xbox One or X on PS4. This will focus your attention on hitting the receiver as soon as he touches the ball. You'll stop the player faster and cause more dropped passes.

How to Stop Mobile QB's in Madden 16

Madden 16 adds in QB Spy controls to the defense. You can click the right thumbstick to send the Spy to the QB even if you aren't on the controller. Learn how to use it and the right timing.

Great Madden 16 Blitzes

In most playbooks you can find the Quarter Normal DB Strike 1 and set your linebackers to Pass Rush. Then you set the play up by pinching your defensive line together and moving a blitzer into position before you switch to safety to cover any pass that gets through. This is another one that is a little more involved, but it is worth it once you get it mastered. More on this at Madden School.

Jump the Snap

If you are going to play as the blitzer or on the line you can press Right Trigger on Xbox One or R2 on PS4 to jump the snap. This sounds like a bad thing, but as long as you can time it right you will get a head start on defenders and can get through to the QB or RB for more stops in the backfield.

Penetrate the Offensive Line

In addition to jumping the snap, if you are going to go after the quarterback o your own you will need to master the use of X and A on Xbox One and Square and X on PS4. When a defender has you blocked, press the button that flashes on-screen to swim, spin and get away from the defender to get a sack or hit the running back.

Strafe to Stay On Target

Use LT or L2 to strafe and keep your defenders hips in line with the line of scrimmage while you move across the field. This allows you to stay oriented to make a play, but remain mobile.

Defensive Assist Mode

When you need to stop a powerful wide receiver you may need to call in support. TO do this call a defensive play with Man Coverage. Before the snap switch to the cornerback and then hold LB or L1 after the snap. This will keep you mirrored to the route so you can make a major play. When in doubt LB or L1 will move your defender where he should be.
