Deliver on Defense
Bring the Heat – Utilize a new set of pass rush tools to beat your blocker and disrupt the backfield. New mechanics to jump the snap, shed blocks and steer offensive linemen put your in control and make defensive linemen more dangerous than ever.
Risk vs. Reward – Defenders can now make aggressive or conservative tackles in the open field, with proximity cones showing the effective range of each. Aggressive tackles can lead to big plays and fumbles, but conservative tackles are more likely to bring the ball-carrier down without giving up extra yards. The choice is yours, but so are the consequences.
A New Point of View – See defense through a whole new lens with all-new camera angles that let you attack the play from the defensive's perspective. Whether you lock in on a single defender and go for the big play or follow the action wherever the ball goes, you'll see the play unfold through the defense's eyes.
Best of Broadcast
