Max Protection Against Blitz
If someone is blitzing your nuts off there are two things you can do. First, I like to get all 5 receivers out on quick routes hoping to hit them in the many holes created from the blitzing defenders. I can stop someone from blitzing by completing some short routes and then getting some huge run after catch yardage, but If you are not having luck with this strategy you need to go to max protection. I never really was a fan of this max protection until someone used it on me and was very successful. When I max protect I like to keep seven guys blocking and have three receivers out on routes. You can audible your players by hot routing them and then pressing R2/L2. When you max protect look to take shots down the field with deep corner routes, posts, post corners, and other deep crossing routes. One of my favorite max protection plays is WR Drag out of shotgun normal in the Floria Playbook. I keep my running back and tight end in to block and look to work the slot receiver on the post or the post corner by the far receiver, if neither of these routes open up, look to hit the other receiver on the shallow cross. Look for plays in your playbook you think will work well with max protection, remember you can always motion receivers across the formation to get another option on that side of the field. Against blitz happy opponents, if you can't get time and aren't having luck completing short passes, look to max protect and hit some big plays.

best way to try and stop this you have to be good as hell at user controlling a safety and set some 2 coverages on some guys or once they keep trying to run the same plays out of the same sets they usually will block with the same people so you need to find which of your guys is lined up on them in man and audible them to blitz as well and hope you can beat them with a numbers game. other than that its very tough to defend and just trying to rush the end takes too long.
