Block your RB or TE or both if you want and run zig routes with your most inside receivers, beats it every time.

There’s multiple things you can do…
As the gentleman before me stated - Go max protection with your running back and tight end and run zig routes. Or send your running back in motion to the opposite side of where his user is and snap the ball…He won’t be able to get there in time and it’s a house call. Lob passes also work well. You can also see how he’s shading his defense and audible a route to take advantage. There’s lots of ways to beat it, you just gotta find what works best for you.

Great advice - you get a couple of quick scores doing this and they will rage quit almost every time or at least stop mid blitzing every play. :)

Also make sure you aren't coming out in 5 wide formations.

A qb with a quick release also helps. We sold a few cards and picked up Lamar. Fast release and can get outide of the blitz if need be. Won the next 7 or 8 in a row. All mid blitz or 3-3 blitzers. They all rage after you smoke them a few times.

Block your TE, ID the DE on the opposite side of the TE

this is absolutely true, but i'll add onto this.
in formations where you have an outside receiver, you can use some good routes. like a SPEED OUT. so imagine you block the TE and ID the DE opposite. then you put your outside WR on a speed out and stem it up to maybe 15 yards.
put a slot receiver on a zig route, and maybe the other receiver on a comeback or something. just man beating routes.
eventually they will drop a DE to zone the zig route and alleviate the pressure. eventually they will have to put another zone to take away your deeper speed out, and put someone under the comeback route.
at this point they'll just start calling coverages, and you've basically won as you are now dictating their defense.
