Slant

The Slant tag identifies every Madden NFL play built around at least one receiver running a quick inside-breaking slant, covering 684 plays across 277 sets and 13 formations, from Shotgun and Singleback spread looks to Power I, Full House, and Goal Line Offense. It groups pure quick-game concepts like Slants, Quick Slants, and Slant Spacing alongside RPO tags such as RPO Peek Slant and RPO Alert Jet Slant, giving you one filter for your go-to answers against off coverage, Cover 1 man, and heavy blitz looks. Use it to build a quick-game package that gets the ball out before the nano blitz arrives, find slant-flat and double slant combos that stress curl-flat defenders, and spot formations where you can hot route a slant to exploit a user-controlled linebacker sitting in the hook.
