Having a hard time trying to win games on madden 12

Im having a very hard time trying to close out and win games on madden 12. The problem that i seem to be having is my offense seem to disappear in the second half. My passing games goes in the tank and my running dosnt bother to answer the call. Before i know it the game has slip completely away from me. So i ask the online football forum what can i do to get myself out of this problem. Any answers will be appreciated Thanks ALC

First off what team are you using? Online I like to use the Falcons. They have Matt Ryan and a good WR core. With Micheal "The Burner" Turner in the back field who can power his way threw the middle it makes it really hard for a team to focus one thing. Defense is all about luck online. If your vs. the top players really you gotta rec. in the second half and control the clock to win against them. Always Kick when you win the toss. Expect in OT.
