Madden 21 has a Squads QB glitch, here's how to fix the problem, or so we think.

The tumultuous start for Madden 21 continues, as a Madden Ultimate Team Squads QB glitch has caused serious unrest among players. Already under fire for what has been deemed a sub-par product by gamers worldwide, EA Sports now has a new glitch to deal with at the quarterback position.

The problem occurs when players attempt to play MUT Squads with a friend, a long established game mode at this point. In certain offensive formations, when the ball is snapped, the defensive coordinator will instantly be switched to control of the QB, with or without their wanting. What's more frustrating about this bug is that often times, the defensive coordinator is switched to QB duties and not given the ability to actually control the player, it's just a CPU operating on its own.

Unfortunately, at the time of writing, there is no clear fix for the problem. Something that seems to be working for the time being is to simply stay out of shotgun formations or to utilize play action when in passing sets.

EA Sports has confirmed it's aware of the issue and working on the fix. Hopefully they can turn it around and impress players with the next gen launch. Because at the moment there is serious animosity directed towards the game developers for what players are calling an atrocious game.
