Now there are eight new zones, and defenders cover better in them. This meant defenders were statues as receivers caught passes around them. Previous games had four spot drops, where a defender simply dropped to a predetermined spot and covered that area only. This hard flat play also demonstrates the new zone coverages by defenders. If you commit to the flat you can get burned elsewhere, so you still have to anticipate your opponent's moves and call the right plays. This brings you to the new zones like a Cover 2 Hard Flat where the linebacker matches the player going out to that area of the field. Someone keeps dinging you with RB passes to the flat? Go to Run/Pass Counters>Pass Counters>Short Passes Outside.
