How to throw a lob pass in Madden 24

The first thing you need to do to throw a lob pass is pick a passing play when on offense, and then understand exactly what a lob pass does.

Lob passes are throws with a huge arc on them, they go high into the sky with the aim of dropping down right into the hands of a receiver on the move. As a result, lob passes are in the air for a LONG time so should only be used when your receiver is open.

To throw a lob pass in Madden 24 you need to tap the button of the receiver you want to throw to.

Anything more than the briefest of taps will result in a touch pass and not trigger the lob pass requirement for any Ultimate Team challenges you might be doing.

When you should use a lob pass in Madden 24

Lob passes are best used on deep throws where your receiver is ahead of the coverage. That means streaks, posts, and deep crossing routes are the best times to use it. If you throw one short or into tight coverage you will be risking an interception.

Because of the long time a lob pass spends in the air you need to read the situation quickly and look to throw it into open space that your receiver is running into. If the place you want to throw it already has a defender there then don't throw the ball!
