How to unlock the Fight for the Fumble achievement in Madden NFL 10 - Definitive Guide
I don't take credit for this solution but it is one I found and it worked perfectly. Credit goes to daenius and SengIV from xbox360achievements.org.

The best way to do this is once more using 2 Controllers. Let Controller 1 (the one that needs the Achievement) pick the Cardinals, for functionalities sake. Let Controller 2 pick the Browns. Also use this chance to make sure your difficulty is on All-Pro and turn rewinds to unlimited/infinity to make life easier. Now set up the start of the game so the Cardinals (Controller 1) kick off to the Browns (Controller 2). Catch the ball and run out of bounds at the 4(or 5) yard line.
Now let the Browns (Controller 2) pick a Punt, found under "By Formation > Special Teams > Punt".
With the Cardinals (Controller 1), pick a punt block, found under "By Formation > Special Teams > Punt Block".
Now with the Browns (Controller 2) flick the downwards ONE TIME. DO NOT FLICK THE STICK UPWARDS. This will give the defense enough time to run in and block the kick. Don't touch a single button after that, let the CPU take care of the rest.
As soon as two or more players dive for the ball, a fumble mini-game will trigger.
The idea of this mini-game is to tap the buttons shown and get the needle into your half of the bar.
To make things considerably easier, have Controller 1 press the right buttons while Controller 2 is pressing the wrong ones.
If you plan this out right, you can get multiple trophies at the same time. The basics first though. When you tackle someone with , also press to try and strip the ball. If the ball comes out, hit again to dive for the ball. This will trigger a quick time event where you have to mash whichever buttons pop on the screen. There will be a little bar at the bottom that tells you which team currently has the ball. The faster you press the buttons and the quicker you change to the next button, the more likely you are to gain possession of the ball.
Like I was saying, you can do multiple trophies at the same time. If you're playing against the Cardinals, you can also get Go Bag Some Groceries. If you're near the other team's endzone and the ball rolls into it, you can also get Look What I Found!. If you're playing the Chargers, you can get Nothing Without the Dark Visor.
