 Our boys I don't do these often but I'm gonna react to the newest gameplay They put a whole game out between Des and Clef if you guys haven't been living under a rock You know Des and Clef it's with the best players in the world So we'll get to see them play the game madden 24 before it comes out Wish I could have did this with the beta talk to you about it But before we get into this game, I got three things I want to talk to you about the beta one The movement feels actually worse actually slower more clunkier than it was this year Man coverage is better because you just can't click on the user is worse Clicking on wide receivers pulling them away from the knockout is way tougher. The moves in the open field are worse It's gonna be even tougher to make why they watch highlight videos. Um, too I'll give you this tons of new animations. Absolutely love the new animations It's the one time I played a game in 20 plus years of playing madden where I was like wow This is a new animation or so pretty much every other tackle was a new animation So tons of new animations I know a lot of people has made a big deal about them a homes throw but Quarterbacks have been making that throw for years and Madden's just looks different. So it's not something to overreact to and then Lastly, I felt like the playbooks they removed a lot of stuff Obviously tight offset you guys know was my baby and madden 18 madden 20 and this year So there's no more tight offset at least why out. I have to look through the playbooks a little bit more I didn't do it that much on the beta, but it looks like tight offset is kaput. It's out of the game That's tough. I think they added a bunch of new cute formations, but the routes are just boring man Every corner out goes up the field. They're not sharp. There's no good post routes. I They're just dumbing down the game so much in the playbooks. I wish there was better routes It's gonna it's gonna make us all have to run certain playbooks that actually have a sharp corner Out or a good post route or something like that similar man 18 where everybody had to run west coast because that was the only post route that worked So wish the playbooks had better routes by everything, but let's get into this game Let's watch it, you know, I haven't played the beta in a couple weeks now So who knows maybe I'll see something new as we got cleft and des I mean like I said two of the best players in the world And we got Nick and we got our boy One of the oh he's one up top early Up no knockout. You see that new animation right there Stefan digs. Wow I mean, I don't even know if they're gonna replay this but I want to replay it. I Mean look at this that last year Every year from here on out. This would have been knocked out. This would have been tackled or something like that Probably the best thing this year is new animations. Look at that catch now I would go as far to say even that even if that's a deep knockout. He doesn't even touch him He's just out of there Stefan digs as he should Going up top right then I look like a man blitz. I mean, let's see the pressure here as we get I mean, I don't think they're told to really set up any blitzes as you see this guy taking the longest angle ever They went up top the digs right there gets a touchdown. Let's see what I gotta say Apparently this guy works works for EA Also cleft went up top Before I could even talk about it, you got right into it Well bumping a bump. Oh, he didn't but he didn't bump into the purple though Last year we would have seen these guys bump into each other right here, but he didn't bump into him. That's good The thing about mutt that's like The thing about mutt that's different is like dude, there's no bad corner against a good wide receiver and mutt like let's be honest We're playing mutt boys regs. Yeah, you can move Stefan days and get them on a third corner like real life Which is a benefit of merit regs a benefit of regs a benefit of CFM is a better player over an average player and mutt They're all pretty good. So like you're gonna have a 50-50 RNG on these beat press animations We'll cover three Hi ball, I mean he is absolutely wide open she's like I don't know these zone drops were on or this guy But these deep blues are nowhere our ones open And that guy's like this is open in every Madden forever, but like for these deep blues to be 10 almost 15 yards away Man, that's tough that normally he'd get his sooner than that. But once again, this is regs It's not Julia's pepper safety out there. You know, it's Let's see a little RPO RPO That's see what I mean a new animation. There's a animation like that Audibles oh my gosh just dude on a drag was so open audible just screwed Clef as the bills audible just got him in a blender Double a good pass. Honestly a good catch good animation on a catch right here. It's underrated thing I don't know if you do but man. That's a clean catch. It's just an underrated thing. I Don't know if that's newer, but but that looks smooth Here we go. He's talking about right now maintain the momentum Seen pass. Oh good breakup. I can't lie. This is caught 10 times out of 10 Just that in against cover three and he had that corner actually played really tough right here I don't know if you can get a better pass lead to the inside and want to catch that around the H rather than the C You know if this passes in here, maybe better pass. He won't catch it But for him to get this that's a good zone as much I talked about the bad zones earlier. That was a good deep blue right there I'll tell you This will see how good zone is here. We try to free form gets it gets it incomplete. I mean look He needed a free form this though That's the only way he gets us in here Clef has a deep blue out here trusted him to guard circle here And he tried to free form to the corner Doesn't get it with McKinnon. I wonder if a better receiver there might get that might get that especially a taller one That's a good pass. Oh good catch. Oh my goodness a Little bump we talked about the bumps all year a little bump right there, but he fights through Goes the square big catch in traffic there. Jeez third down. I swear players get magic on third down and fourth down A Run play what I look that look clean that dude them dudes black right there. I'll tell you all these guys are you are you runners? Definitely held on definitely held on their blaster here. What's the second and goal? Six one. Let's see if you try his quarterback draw He does. Oh Oh, definitely not on quarterback draw six one Five wide again. Oh, he's going quarterback draw again. He likes what he saw. Oh Gotta go for it here fourth and goal Circle. Oh good lurk. Oh and Kelsey drops it. Good lurk He's just guessed here like just guessed where he's gonna go with his user I mean obviously circles wide open But he just kind of guessing right here and when when in doubt go to Kelsey and he actually knocks it down. Good job We should the high ball There we go, that's good That's on the passing side on the catching side if the receiver has to contort his body in a weird way to make the catch He can just drop it because he's contorting weird. Nice. So we are dressed it on the catching side and it's a lot more animation content Well, if it's a back can't hit receivers why they in there? Nice. Well, you know, even on that drop touchdown That was something that I think last year was probably caught most of the time. Oh, we see a roll out. Oh my goodness that looked really good Now we got zoom this back in hold on This is like a clean roll out and what's right if you guys watch the play art these linebackers are in contain Oh, no, this guy's in a contain right here Let's see how he does. I mean actually brutal when we look at it like this guy was in a contain. I Don't know if we can see it again That's a contain on the defensive end I mean, this was the the meta last year was 33 pinch contain and then the linebackers won't contain obviously this year It doesn't work work like that defensive end in contain and honestly, he did a pretty He gets in so I don't know if he double team that guy But it doesn't look like it because this guard picks up him and he moves he moves out of there, man That's tough. That was tough. We missed it last year running gun. I know he has bazooka So he makes this throw run into the left on the run with no ability That's tough. I might have a passing Josh Allen might have a passing ability So who knows but definitely way different than man in 23 as far as rolling out with the quarterback This is Clef with the ball here He has the flat is on the corner out here And this is what we mean about deep blues man, that's just corner strike This is a sea route which is great for the game if this works I'm once again, Josh Allen getting out of the pocket fairly easily But people want their deep blues to play this corner out, right? But if you want that then you're gonna give up the streak and that's what Clef's looking at Do can I hit the corner out of streak? What's this guy gonna play right here? And he's bailing, you know, he's not even worried about this this This corner out at all, you know, he's not gonna give up the streak Honestly good animation get your feet down does not get the knockout great throw on the run again Running backs wide he goes there. Oh, that's what I mean about the user like tough No, he just dropped it on the high ball. That's good. That's good But man, let's cover two. Oh, oh, wow what a match out there. And then he did nothing This is a squat or a cloud You can tell it's covered to another year in a row where they're five yards off the ball It's covered to But you see this guy and he turns his back. He doesn't stop Which we would love our corners to do that one out Obviously should there's nobody else over there from the guard, but I don't know I mean a soft squat will do that and great job by the cloud there Although he didn't do nothing about the pass, but he matched up there and we saw Mike I come over in the deep half. That was a great play by Mike hide He has a star for a reason What's a pick? Late on the throw here You got to hit that right there cover two again Nice squat right now by that's just your Davis white He shoots down a little bit on Kelsey look at this He shoots down a little bit the squats back drops back boom great play by white Obviously flood is not the best play for cover two ever Uh-oh the meta play is it good this year. Oh the tight end flips instead. Oh That's kind of a patch a little bit normally they're running back with flip That's the title over there. I gave decent And it was a rather I mean it makes sense you shouldn't be able to flip I mean by the same time we Might the tight ends are the same speed as why receive for the most part But I mean it's not gonna do too much the biggest thing it takes a little bit longer Nothing open. He's gonna try to square in a circle. Oh No way he makes that thank you That would that was scary right there. He makes that throw. All right. Oh, that's a pic. Oh my gosh So purple zone. Yeah He's gonna go crib too One of my biggest complaints about Madden in the past is how DB's will always fall when he cuts a pick You guys realize they dive and fall right here. We catch a pic boom and he cribs it big time Little toss that looks so obnoxiously slow. I from this one split second of toss I'll tell you toss sucks. Oh My god, like that was It's working though, who knows worked a little bit But I thought it was too slow to work Cover three again Going for the corner up. That was a good knockout a new animation now like this what I mean about the playbooks Like what are we doing here? What's C route is that? Kind of weak now I will tell you that there's no streak on the side of the field to push this guy down the field a little bit more You know if he would have went instead of his out routes at the tight end Maybe go streak to the tight end If you go streak that take that like we saw earlier take that deep blue back down the field a little bit more to hit That C route Good zone right here. Good flat zone covers this guy up. Obviously. There's no deep threat. So I mean just good defense All in all really You kind of want that catch though. You kind of do Yeah, but if you don't need knockout abilities, then then we're just going RNG like it was old school Right, we're just going old-school R&B I'm going to run. Let's see Oh I mean, I mean that safety was embarrassing. That's what I see I Didn't a spinner No, maybe not But this safety right here, dude No, obviously picks the wrong hole and then actually those wide receivers blocking too well for my liking He's pushing this guy backwards. That's what causes this right here, you know, but You got to make that play with Edwards like and then Edwards I don't know who Edwards is but wow what a terrible angle now This is a skill gap. I'll teach you guys one thing about and this is football if you guys play football anything Dude, you cannot let him get the sideline one. This corner needs to second team outside shoulder right here boys Come on. What are we doing? You cannot let this running back get up the sideline is that corner one? This corner got sealed already the safety took a bad angle inside then this corner gets sealed and then this safety You know, this is why football such a team sport, you know This safety is relying on this corner to seal the edge here and he just is getting mauled by Gabe Davis So nobody sets the edge and this guy takes a terrible angle and gives up a touchdown But I'll tell you as far as a man player I'm not relying on this guy right here I'm I'm taking and this is another thing who cares if he gets the first down Who cares if he gets 20 yards? He can't get to the end zone and the way to stop him going from the end zone is cutting off that outside and making him slow Down making him stop if he slows down then your other would let 10 guys and come help you tackle So I would always take this angle really wide almost run to the three here Maybe even to the 20 just get out of here and give him one last line. Don't make it a make or break It's third down. It's not fourth in two for the game. You don't want to give up a touchdown this run It's such as something when I watch Skomo play And I did all them coaching sessions with them. I'm like, dude, you gotta like be a better tackler You guys one thing you learn from this video is like, dude Don't go to try to tackle him here. Try to tackle him at the NFL shield, you know Let's take a better angle right here as football, you know, he got like a little I don't know. He got like a little and he was he flattened out. It was pretty bad Hope that wasn't a computer But the computer does that that's the one thing the computer will take a bad angle That's what that's why it's paramount for you to be clicking on Controlling the angles, especially at least one angle on the field because if you can control one good angle on the field The other idiots can come help you tackle, you know verse again Sure, David's white doesn't knock that down All right, let's see here. All right, we're two minutes real here. I wonder how fast he can snap We got a C-Route on the right here Let's see how it does man coverage C-Route is super bagged Clock is running man two men under again. Why is open? Why beat the press? Oh, he saw what I saw But oh good spot right there. Like look how easily he beats the press, dude But then like he's on it. Yeah, he's on that whip route Smokes the press. This is where I wish you could just go straight like look at him right here And and I think the only way you do it is passes like right now But he actually caught up pretty well there bagged right there Man coverage looks tough to me It's just like man covers always is doesn't be somebody open here. Oh good pass to Kelsey. Oh good knockout That's a suction animation right there pause Didn't expect this one to get knocked out. This is where maybe the highball We're so used to highball and just just snap it in there to Kelsey Snap it in boom right there X you see covered three him roll into the middle bang snap it in you go to highball And he breaks it up on the highball that's gonna be good. I mean It's a tough play right there You know fourth and ten right here looks like quarters actually Knocked out another animation that we don't see that all we don't see And he's actually holding a strip. I think which is a old school way to strip the ball out here. Yeah, this is quarters match coverage Boom knocks about dope just a dope animation man for real. Oh, here we go Oh Goes for a strip breaks through the that's how yep. I love to see it more broken tackles on strip animations I don't want to see the strip animation being that viable and mad in 24 Reverse double. Oh nice play Oh Sad to oh he gets out of there This will just never be a viable playing mad and don't don't don't even know look cool though It does i'm telling you the movement look always looks stiff and nasty I'm good blocking 41 good block So i'm not seeing any moves from these guys Well, I can't lie i'm i'm trying to catch a juke right here or something Let's try the truck. I'm no nothing Toss again Okay, well, why doesn't 88 or 41 see this guy? I'd be pissed right now if I have two I have two free blockers and they don't see this white guy right here They're going to the second level. I don't want to hear about defense. That's shitty blocking I don't care. That's bad blocking. I'd be pissed I don't believe I believe that when I see it I like to run it. I mean, let's go. I just feel it definitely the user feels clunky the movement open field feels, but A crossing route was open that in route is open Big play. Oh my god, dude Once again, just terrible contain. I don't know. Is that no, isn't that cor lafas carolafas the greek guy? I guess from uh, kansas city Like look at this like you don't have a shot to catch shosh Allen And just a great animation too. Look at the animation. No no slow down. No nothing bowman go The quarterback looks op That's what I feel I feel I do. Oh screen. Are we back? Is the 360 no scope back? The 360 no scope is back confirmed I mean, I need to see some juke's Oh, damn big shed from the user. Was that the user? Yeah on miller We'll pick That's a great. Yeah, that's a great clouds on right there. Look at that vert hook matching though It's just covered too You got a mid read. I don't know you got a mid read. You got two vert hooks This vert hook drops down takes the damn drag I mean, I feel like you have a window on this and you can also probably freeform up a little higher, but Maybe not dude. That's just a great clouds on look how far back he is It's not a drop either because if it was a drop that zone wouldn't match. So that's just a stock cloud or It's a good play. We that's the second that's the second cloud zone. We've seen what should davis white make a big play circle I mean josh allen is absolutely dominant. I like I As bad as it was a pocket passing last game or last year this year and let's look like the mobile quarterback That's the one takeaway. I've taken away from this is the mobile quarterback is ridiculous. Again, that's a pick. Oh my god We love that The covers team he threw the ball right at this guy and he swats it Dog, I can see if it was a hard pick, but that's terrible, dude He's got to pick that off. You know, I shouldn't need to pick artists from my computer to go for a pick on that pass Oh, he fries. See that's that I'm telling you that's that that new rack animation. Look where the ball is I don't know if there's a high pass it might be I don't know if deep knockout and man is going to be that op because of the animations alone I don't like the onside kick. I'm on though now Nobody likes onside kicks being viable and mad in here bunch vertical. Oh, there it is The high ball drop dude, this is Oh my god, just nasty And then that's gotta be acrobat, huh? I can't lie. Kelsey shouldn't drop the ball, dude Kelsey shouldn't drop the ball. I don't care. Maybe par him or like an evil waller, but not Kelsey. He's a 99, dude Kelsey can't be the one dropping Oh, my another one another absolute swat. Why like come on, dude Seems like from what I see we're gonna need to pick artists again A little run right there. Nice tackle Roll out again right on the blitz actually brutal. Oh my gosh Oh, he gets fumbled though if he makes this throw, dude. Oh my god Josh Allen is OP. That's all I learned look at and Corner strike looks kind of powerful. I'll tell you that much boys Again zone Why good throw? See I'm on a juke right there Good throw right there. He's not catching that. That's a good. That's a good defense Looks like covered there. Looks like seem to Kelsey. I would maybe rpo to Kelsey. Oh no good run touchdown That zone would piss me off right there, dude You're right there. You're there. You're there. What are you doing? What are you doing? What are you doing? That's a good catch All right, boys. I'm about seen enough Listen, there it is. That's our first look That's not our first look but a full game two good players the quarterback looks OP That's what I'll tell you. I didn't see any moves in open field It's kind of boring But you know, we'll see how the game when the game comes out Try to break the game with juke spin moves, whatever. It may be stiff arm truck The quarterback looks OP. I'll tell you that. I mean the defense looks good too. The high ball is not consistent I would tell you I know we hate the high ball But if you try to play man 23 without it, it's terribly hard to pass the ball It's terribly hard to like Fit the ball in there not get it knocked out not get zones to play at the high ball Kind of is needed in man in 23 So if the defense plays the same and now high ball is not consistent or it's bouncing off my 99 overall players hands for a pick I I think that's going to be tough Might be defensive, but We'll see how it goes here early in madden 24 I'm excited for madden. Appreciate you guys watching these old madden 23 videos. We want to hit it hard Madden 24 man. This was just me reacting to the video. I hadn't watched it before this So it's dope. I think it looks awesome. Super excited for the game The animation is alone Dude, I'm excited to play August 15th, you guys know Twitch.tv sized up dive. You want to watch me live?
