How to unlock the Perfect Passer achievement in Madden NFL 20 - Definitive Guide

After
in the Madden NFL 20 Face of the Franchise mode, you will head to the combine. For this achievement, We need to throw 24 passes in a row at the combine, and get the receiver to catch it in the landing zone without missing one. No checkpoints, either. Yeh…

Luckily, it only takes 5-7 minutes per attempt (took me 4-5) and the loading cutscene is approx 1 minute with loading.

Completing the passes is easy, but they also need to land the catch within a specific landing zone, or you fail the pass and will have to restart. All that matters is where the receiver’s feet land AFTER the catch, not where they catch the ball. If you’re struggling, you’re probably throwing the ball too late, not too early.

Before each throw, their route will be shown. Be sure to look at this so you know the route they take. Generally, you want to throw the ball with bullet passes (hold the button), and throw it just after they make their final route turn, but there are exceptions.

If you miss one, just quit out and load back in. You’ll have to watch a cutscene, but its only around the 1-minute mark as mentioned.

Part 1/4 (6 throws):
The first 4 throws are pretty easy, just ensure you throw a bit before they enter the landing zone. Remember, always hold the receiver input for bullet passes.

The 5th and 6th throws are trickier. You’ll need to throw the ball almost immediately after the turn. With practise, you’ll get the timing.

Inputs in order: B, B, Y, Y, RB, RB

Part 2/4 (6 throws):
The first 2 throws are easy, just throw as soon after they make their turn (especially the second).

The 3rd and 4th throws aren’t too tricky in of themselves, but the receiving window is very stingy. My advice is to throw the ball immediately, and I mean immediately, after they divot.
The 5th and 6th throws you need to throw AS they are divoting, as it is a less harsh turn.

Inputs in order: B, B, A, A, Y, Y

Part 3/4 (6 throws):
The first 2 throws are easy. Just ensure that you throw the ball a little bit after they start making their straight run.

The 3rd and 4th throws aren’t too bad, either, but the toughest of the bunch. You’ll need to throw immediately after the turn (even as they are turning), however, they are less likely to overshoot as it’s on the side line.

The 5th and 6th are the easiest, in my opinion. As they are making their small divot, throw the ball. (remember, less sharp divots = shorter times turning).
Inputs in order: RB, RB, B, B, B, B


Part 4/4 (6 throws):
The 1st and 2nd, throw a bullet pass JUST as the receiver is crossing the 50. Don’t get caught out by these and throw too late, I did this twice.

The 3rd and 4th, throw the ball just after the divot. Ignoring how tense you may feel; these are pretty easy.

The 5th and 6th throws are the toughest of the lot (obviously). You’ll need to throw the ball as they jog on the spot, don’t be followed by the speed reduction, the landing zones are pretty much right after. Throw it as they pause and you’re good.

Inputs in order: B, B, Y, Y, B, B

Christ i messed up on the second last one on my 10th attempt at this, very frustrating achievement. They really need to have checkpoints in this, or at least a quick restart button. And the amount of times I have hit the receiver in stride who takes a step or two inside the circle after the catch and it comes up failed is ridiculous.

Thanks for the tips, I would also recommend throwing earlier than you think you should on all passes. I used bullet passes for every pass and it worked.

I personally threw bullet or low passes. Low passes tended to be a bit easier as the receiver would drop and itd reduce the risk of them running through before completing the catch.

It would be great if you could skip the stupid cutscenes at the beginning, but it's EA, what do you expect 😠

If you miss, you can just close the game. It'll start you right where you get your 'agent'

I found focusing on the turn spots and divots on the actual field in the pre-route view. Ie: as he crosses particular part of midfield logo throw. Great guide!!!

I can't say much more to the guide that hasn't already been said BUT it should be worth noting you can move around before throwing the passes.

To me I found it a little easier and a little less nerve-racking if I was moving around with his route, not leaving the box but kind of staying in rhythm by doing that leaning in the direction of his route. After trying a few times not doing it, I did it in one go when I was focused and kind of moving around like it was a real game situation and not practice.

Also I can confirm to start throwing bullet passes earlier than you'd expect, especially when the receiver pivots. You can do this on nearly all of them, except a few of the closer passes early on.

Can only imagine how frustrating this was for those who had to burn their precious EA Access trial minutes repeating that cutscene over and over. Yikes.

Wow this sucks, most of the time it doesn't even feel like my own fault, last time I failed, was because the guy decided to do a jumping grab while turning around on the spot, which of course slowed him down.

I've had the 3rd or 4th round mess up 4-5 times now, because the receiver did that jumping turn animation, no fault of my own.

Took me about 3 hours to get this done, didn't expect this 6-8 completion to have an achievement that annoying.

Took a few tries but this guide helped immensely, the timing is almost always earlier than you think it should be

What if you're not sure you got it? Is there another way of telling I have a hard time with the red and green of the zone.

Your part 4, 3rd & 4th passes description are wrong. on 3, you should wait a touch after the turn & on the 4th, wait a few yards after the turn because if you don't, he comes up way short.
