Ever since last JI season I played in, I realized I can't too anything against people who crowd the line of scrimmage. I STUPIDLY told this to my friend, and now every down where there is even the THREAT of a run, he brings everyone to the line of scrimmage. It's now nearly impossible for me to get my running game going ever. Any suggestions (suggestions OTHER than "pass against the stack", because I still want to be able to run effectively)

The only thing I ever did when someone would stack the line is audible to a pass, send one guy deep and bomb it to him. You complete a couple of those and he's going to back off just a little and give you room to run. You still need to mix in some passes here and there to keep them honest.

There are a million things you can do vs 8 or 9 in the box. Go to practice mode and pass and run out of tight formations (ie: 2 or 3 te's). practice a short drop and hitting the TE on a outside corner route. The safety has a bad angle on this route out of a tight formation when he is in the box. Practice it and you will see what I'm talking about. You need to get your drop back just right and it is money every time. Also preactice running the ball to the outside (ie: pitches). There is one I-Formation play that fakes to the fb and pitches it outside to the HB that works very well against 9 on the box. Combine pitches to the outside and runs right up the gut out of I-Formation.
