How to Do the Philly Special in Madden 23
The Philly Special is a high-risk, high-reward play that has become a fan favorite in the NFL. In Madden 23, players can now experience this legendary play firsthand. Whether you’re a seasoned Madden player or a beginner, mastering the Philly Special can add a whole new level of excitement to your game. In this article, we’ll guide you through the steps to execute the Philly Special in Madden 23.
1. Choose the Right Team
Before you can execute the Philly Special, you need to choose a team that has the offensive personnel and play style to pull it off. The Philadelphia Eagles are the most famous team to run the play, so consider starting with them. If you’re playing with a custom team, make sure you have a strong quarterback, receivers, and a solid offensive line.
2. Set Up the Play
In the playbook, locate the “Philly Special” play. This play is typically found under the “Wildcat” or “Special Teams” categories. Once you find it, drag and drop the play into your game plan.
3. Choose the Formation
The Philly Special is typically run out of a Wildcat formation. This formation features the quarterback lined up in the backfield, with a running back beside him. The key is to have the quarterback have the ability to run and pass effectively. In Madden 23, you can choose from different Wildcat formations to set up the play.
4. Get the Ball
Once the play is set up, your quarterback will take the snap. The goal is to keep the ball with the quarterback as long as possible. This means using your play-action and play fake skills to draw defenders away from the play.
5. Execute the Play
When the play begins, your quarterback should look to hand off to the running back or throw the ball to a receiver. The key is to read the defense and make the right decision at the right time. If the defense is loaded up on the line of scrimmage, it might be time to hand off. If the defense is overpursuing, a quick throw could be the way to go.
6. Practice Makes Perfect
Executing the Philly Special is not easy, and it will likely take some practice to get right. Spend time in the practice mode to work on your play-action and play fake skills. The more you practice, the more comfortable you’ll become with the play.
7. Be Patient
The Philly Special is a high-risk play, and it’s not guaranteed to work every time. Be patient and don’t get discouraged if it doesn’t work on the first try. The key is to stay calm and make the right decision at the right time.
In conclusion, mastering the Philly Special in Madden 23 can add a whole new level of excitement to your game. By choosing the right team, setting up the play, executing it with precision, and being patient, you’ll be well on your way to pulling off this legendary play. Happy gaming!
