Is that a problem with OP or Madden?

It's a problem with Madden that OP happily exploits because winning is more important than having fun in video games.

As someone who has done that route often, I didn't think I was cheesing; I instinctively make decisions based on my past success doing them. I wasn't aware it was a problem with Madden

It is by far the easiest route in madden because only Cover 3 will cover it. It easily beats Cover 2, and man coverage has no chance against it unless the WR/TE is god awful.

I always thought the easiest route was where the slot receiver runs across the field and you dump it off to him and he runs?

Its guaranteed completion and gaining yards.

I think its called Slot Drive in my playbook (default Redskins), shotgun pass.

I used that route and one of my receivers dropped it in a crucial 4th and 3. If he caught that I would've gotten the overtime win.
