How to unlock the Nano achievement in Madden NFL 11 - Definitive Guide
Achievement Description: Tackle the QB before he can hand the ball off (no OTP)
You can turn the penalty for offsides off in an exhibition game. When the computer is on offense, stand behind the quarterback with whatever player you'd like to sack him with and then immediately do so when he hikes the ball. If the computer had chosen a run play, then you'll pop this achievement right away.
When you are on defense, select a player of your choice and go to the offensive side of the ball. Stand next to the quarterback and as soon as he snaps the ball, pound him into the dirt. As long as a run play was chosen, you will pop this trophy. If perchance the computer called a pass play, just line up again and repeat. The trophy will pop after the play and not at the end of the game.
The easiest way to get this one is to turn off Offsides in the penalty settings. This means you will be free to position a player right beside the Quarterback behind his Offensive Line. Just be careful not to touch any of the other teams players, as this is an immediate penalty.
Wait for the hike, and pounce. If the opposition are rushing, trying a Running Play and were about to make a handoff, you should be sorted. If not, just try it again. This trophy unlocks straight away.
Trophies that can be done at the same time:
Pick Up 6, Sack Master, Butterfingers, No Offense and Old Spice Swagger Pick 6.
This one is simple for either one or two controllers. With one controller, it’s luck if the opposing team chooses a running play. For two controllers, just have the second player choose a running play. Either way, turn offsides off and line up behind and to the right of the QB. When the ball is snapped, simply tackle him.
Achievement unlocks at the end of the play.
