I mostly run 4-3 zone but i just keep getting cooked. Usually use coverage decoys and audible to hard flats most plays and it just isn’t working. Open to running something new since I lack an identity. My team is 81 OVR NMS so I feel like i’m just not running the right scheme.
You can always try switching to one of the nickel defenses. A lot of people run the 4-2-5 3-3-5 over 3-3-5 penny or 3-2-6. Make sure to set up your specialist. I wouldn’t just run hard flats all the time. You would be better setting your coverage settings to something like 25-5-5 as a base way to set up.

wdym by specialist? thanks
In your lineup screen after offense defense and special teams there is a tab marked specialists. The players you put in these positions are used in plays that require positions outside of the basic. An example would be just about all of the nickel and dime packages pull players from here
