Gridiron Guide 13
If you are a serious competitor who wants to take advantage of every opportunity to improve your game...you have come to the right place! At X’s O’s Football we provide real football strategies and tips that can be easily applied to football video games. Rather than showing cheats and glitches, we show how to apply real football concepts to football video games.
There are a bunch of sites out there that offer little bits of strategy and video. Some have a couple of player ratings, others a couple of play breakdowns, but nobody can match our complete 400+ page guide and over 100 plays broken down.
You will be getting an absolutely CRAZY amount of content that covers all aspects of game including:
- The complete guide to the passing game. Using the pocket, pass routes and combinations, hot routes, motion, beating bump and run, and more!
- The complete guide to the running game. Running the option, using motion in the running game, short yardage rushing and more!
- The complete guide to lockdown defense. Defensive shifts, coverage breakdowns, defending motion, dealing with play action and more!
- Comprehensive New Feature guide. If it's new to the game, it's new to the guide!
