Chapter 3 - Read & React Weapons
Madden 08's new read and react player weapon feature is a visual representation of a star player's skills. Read this
information at the line of scrimmage and spot where your opponent's best players are on the field and react and adjust
your play accordingly. Perhaps you should to pass away from your opponent's Shutdown Corner or key your Brick Wall
Defender on your opponent's Power Back.
This section covers Madden 08's read and react player weapons. You'll find descriptions for each weapon and all players
that feature that weapon. Also included is the player statistic tied into that weapon.
Note that these lists are based on the default version of the game. If you play online, a roster update will alter some of
these lists. For instance, the Oakland Raiders signed former Jaguar safety Donovin Darius, who is a Big Hitter.
Also, there have been some issues with the Smart player weapon. For players with multiple weapons, the icon displayed
below the player is that player's highest corresponding rating (if his tackle rating is highest, it'll show a Brick Wall
Defender). This poses some problems with the Smart weapon; if the Smart light bulb icon isn't displayed then its ability
to read plays doesn't appear to work properly.
Cannon Arm QB
The Cannon Arm QB player weapon is tied into the quarterback's throw power rating--signal callers with over a 95 throw
power rating possess the weapon. The following quarterbacks can throw the farthest deep passes and the fastest bullet
passes (hold down the receiver button to throw a bullet pass).

The Accurate QB player weapon is tied to the quarterback's throw accuracy rating. These quarterbacks will be more
precise on their throws, though all quarterbacks are less accurate on deep balls or while the quarterback is on the run.
