Running the ball in Madden 24 is as powerful as ever. The issue is that most players don’t know which runs to call, which gives them inconsistent results. To solve this issue for you, here are the Top 5 Run Plays in Madden 24.

  1. Stretch Alert Bubble (Singleback Wing Slot)
    Playbooks: BUF/NE/West Coast

This is the BEST RPO stretch play in Madden 24.
The best thing is if your opponent commits to stopping the bubble screen, they ALWAYS take players out of the run fit (which means your stretch is even more OP).

2): Read Option (Gun Bunch Offset)
Playbooks: IND/PHI

Look at the Read Key defender with an “R” over his head.
If he crashes down on the RB, don’t press anything to let your QB take the ball to the edge.
If he waits for the QB, hold A on Xbox/X to hand the ball off to your RB.

3): HB Zone (Pistol Bunch TE)
Playbooks: Pistol/Run N Gun

All you need to do is flip your run to the left by flicking the left stick.
This run will give you a huge hole to run through, making it one of the BEST home-run hitters in the game.

4): HB Stretch (Singleback Wing Flex Close)
Playbooks: CIN/GB/JAX/NYJ

This is one of the BEST stretch runs in the game.
The ability to flip the run makes it extremely difficult to defend because each side has 2 WRs or TEs blocking.

5): Power Option (Pistol Strong)
Playbooks: BAL

Most players defend the QB, meaning the RB will be wide-open.
By using the “hurdle pitch,” you’ll get the ball to the edge FAST.
If the Pitch Key follows the RB, take it upfield with your QB.
