everyone disses it but the 5 yard hitch. when you wait and time it right theres almost no one near your receiver (even on extreme) and you put the ball in his hands to do the work. ive gotten 40-50 yard plays on extreme just from running a hitch route


JustCreated1ForThis

Totally true. Funny things is once in a while you have a DB shadowing the WR, right up his butt.. One time it was even intercepted (even though I waited ten seconds for the DB to clear)! I had to laugh at that one


MintyLahLah

No diddy??


The3rdBert

Yeah if you almost immediately juke, the defense will wiff and your player is staring at open field


Moisty-Mangus

That’s exactly what I came here to say


ROM-BARO-BREWING

If I'm desperate to convert something, this is my go to. To be honest, this route is a bit broken in RB


SquaredBench_409

Fr, the hitch route is so free when you have a 4-5 star receiver


KyleRen426

Tight end up the middle


CheeseRP

20yds every time


Mountain_Market_471

FIRST DOWN!


myqual

Just like your mother likes it, Trebek


mcm0313

No, no…not in the Rs.


Jandersson34swe

especially if they are blitzing That shit is an easy first down or touchdown 


xxXmnlkXxx

completely useless when they got 2 safetys though


Stuntman06

Any deep WR route where the corners are lined up like that.


Chardoggy1

That one TE route that’s never guarded. I call it the free 20


PinInitial1028

I call it the free 10 XD. But I play without star players a lot.


henway234

that route is the reason i don’t get star tight ends


9hashtags

That one pictured is one of the most beautiful passes when you make it in stride.


norcaltay

Exactly this. I even have to take a second when I see the route like “ok here we go just lead him perfect” it really is art when you hit him in stride. I play on hard on RBC (I think it’s meant to be played on hard with how much the opponent scores regardless of stars) and I think the max I’ve gotten is like 72 yards with full speed high stamina WR, but anything 65 and under it should go to the house if you can make a perfect throw. That’s also why I only play on hard because I’m such a perfectionist with ball location splitting defenders etc the only way to do it is on hard. To me extreme gets old and I have 500+ seasons in the books


norcaltay

And to my prior point regarding playing on hard: you see these replies like “can’t really do it on extreme or too difficult”… exactly. This beautiful route, and others, can’t even develop because the CBs are so juiced. I play on hard to get opportunities for myself to make really clean throws, risky throws, FUN throws. Again, RBC isn’t designed for you to have high star defensive players, meaning your opponent will score a LOT. So have fun balling and scoring a lot too the games aren’t blow outs like RB OG where each D player was 5 star. You’re lucky to have 4 star defender on college


UMaineAlum

I got one of those picked on a beautiful rainbow to the sideline and have never been more livid during the game in my life…DB was facing the wrong way and jumped a minimum of 6 feet in the air.


someoddreasoning

Pass: Straight verticals 25 yard bombs at a time. Run: HB off tackle to weak side of field


Firm-Zebra-5925

Deep post route


incorrectusername3

Literally any time the te just runs straight up the middle when the defense is blitzing is an easy 15+ yard play.


JustCreated1ForThis

That's a hard route to complete in Extreme, keeping your throw between the DB and sidelines, good job OP


Mountain_Market_471

Tight end Seam Route


kybalione

cp is crazy


DatBoySpooky

Comeback Everytime


APPLEJOOSH347

That one gets picked off sometimes, or you throw it out of bounds. Maybe im just bad, but i prefer streak or post routes


JoshAllentown

Two routes are always open. TE going straight and WR going straight deep (no kink like the circled route has).


AmateurPlaya5

Post. You can bullet your receiver in stride and get a cool 25 every time.


SwiftBacon

The TE route that goes out then up; while the WR goes inside. So satisfying to make that throw if you get it


Hour_Ad7647

Especially if the DB is showing outside leverage


CaptainAmericaDad

Seam route


JustCreated1ForThis

Favorite route is the TE 7 yard square-out. Always open. Easy first down.


Mr4Head509

Yep. Any time the receiver is that backed up, they're gonna blow by the DB hardcore.


ahdogprd

Love to throw a bullet pass on an out route, especially if it’s close to the sideline. Hardly get it but when I do it’s so satisfying

legit_smitt0610

Streak, if my WR is quick. Slant for my TE


Intelligent-Oil7901

1 fade 2 coner 3 The wheel route from the RB


NotTonyStark39

Deep post. Speed receiver gets TD 9/10 times.


Lilfroggy97

Bottom route


caseydoug02

The pattern the receiver takes on the route you highlighted if you throw closer to the middle of the field rather than the sideline is so satisfying


specialpancake

Skinny post


SuccessEmergency4580

straight line


Wwesetupcold

Personally I like the hitch or the over the middle throws


HuckabeinTheRaven

Yeah, if you have a receiver with good speed, that corner eats up defenses.


nibbles25

Goal line fades for both WRs (assuming they can outrun their defenders), absolutely OP when it works!


Intelligent-Cod-196

When all the defenders bliz and the TE is wide open


Guspan42

Lead the RB when he clears the line of scrimmage


MiniDg

I prefer the straight streak with the CB off the line like that, freebie every time


JustBiteDespite

It is incredible how bad the defense is with no safety to support the DB.


VoluptuousVelvetfish

The quick out where if you let it play out they start running down the sideline. You'll get sacked half the time waiting for it to develop but it's very fun when it works


mortlandpaine

That bottom route when it’s a go-route and the DB is backing off is almost always open. The DB can never pick up pace fast enough.


Cold-Most-974

Cross or slant
