How to unlock the Antifreeze achievement in Madden NFL 17 - Definitive Guide
Do Play Now, 1 min qtrs, Rookie.
Play the game for the first 3 qtrs and keep it scoreless. You can use the chew clock option on offense to make it go faster but make sure you turn it off for the 4th qtr.
When the 4th qtr starts, make sure you get the ball to the active controller for your profile. If that profile does not have the ball, use the 2nd controller to punt the ball away.
Once you have possession with the active profile, drive the ball to fg range. Best way to do this is to pick Hail Mary on offense with the active controller and punt block on defense with the second controller.
Throw the ball to any receiver as they will be wide open, but don't score. Get down to the 20 yard line or closer so you can kick an easy field goal. IMPORTANT : Don't go out of bounds and don't call a time out. Just get tackled in the middle of the field and let the clock run.
Now with the other controller, call a time out with 3 seconds left in the game. If you did it correctly, when you line up for the game winning field goal with the active controller/profile, the camera will be zoomed in and the kick meter will be double the size.
Just kick the fg and the achievement will pop.
Rookie difficulty. Get the game to overtime and then after each team has had a possession kick a field goal even on first down. The other team will call a time out and you will enter a zoomed version of kicking.
Must be 3 minute or more quarters so that their is a two minute warning.
Easiest with 2 controllers
Call fg kick with main profile
Call a timeout with guest controller

Note: You may need to play at least 3 minute quarters to unlock this trophy.
To unlock Antifreeze, you will need to have the opposing coach call a timeout while you are about to kick a game winning or tying field goal at the end of the game. You can easily force this by playing vs. the computer on the rookie difficulty setting. Keep the game tied and enter overtime. Once in overtime, drive down the field and get into position to kick the game winning field goal. The computer will call a timeout to Ice you. After the timeout, the field goal view will change indicating that you have been Iced. Now all you need to do is make the FG.
To make things even easier, you can use my rosters and choose the 49ers vs. the Rams. Or you can use 2 controllers or play online vs. a friend.

While playing in Play Now, use two controllers. At the end of the game, be tied or trailing and lead your team into field goal range. Make sure you are tackled on a play that allows the clock to be continually running (don't go out of bounds, be incomplete pass or call a time out). Load up the field goal unit from your plays and go to kick the field goal. With three seconds left on the clock, hit TIMEOUT with your other controller. He stops the clock and freezes the kicker. Just kick the field goal next to win the game while iced.
