Timing is everything with this defensive move. A big hit tackle in Madden NFL 24 can either force a fumble or go terribly wrong. In this guide, I’ll explain how to pull off a big hit and when the best time is to perform one.
How to Big Hit Tackle in Madden 24
To achieve a big hit tackle in Madden NFL 24, you must push L3 + R3 in the same direction and in the direction in which you are tackling the player. When you are close to the player or in range of a normal tackle, instead of pressing the square button, push the two analog sticks together.
Your defender will either hit the player and perform specific animations, such as picking the player up and dropping him on the ground. Or knock him back and stop the extra yards gained on the tackle.
When is the Best Time to Use a Big Hit Tackle in Madden NFL 24?
The best time to perform a big hit tackle in Madden 24 is when you are facing the player straight on. If you are on the side of the player, there’s a strong chance you could miss the tackle. If you miss the tackle, getting your player up for another challenge will take time.
It’s also a dangerous play to make if you have no teammates behind you to cover if the big hit misses. Why it’s important to know how to hit a player with a big hit tackle is that you stand a higher chance of forcing an error and possibly a fumble. It works best when you’ve sacked the Quarterback.

If you sack the QB and he loses the ball, you could be home free and running the ball to the touchline for a touchdown. It gives all Madden players a stronger chance of scoring when playing defense.
