How to Play Madden 08?

I want to learn how to play Madden 08 but I find the controls and the interface very complicated. Does anyone have any tips about how to go about starting off with learning the gameplay? Which modes in the game are good? General tips for playing offense and defense? Every time I throw a pass it seems to go into triple coverage.

Update:

I'm playing it on Xbox 360. What value is there to the Practice Offense Only if I can always complete a pass to a receiver who is not defended?

    I'm not sure which system you are using but practice mode is a great way to get started. Practice "offense only" to get use to passing the ball and using the controls. Then move up to "normal" practice. After you get used to the controls play some games under "play now".

    The value to offense only is getting the timing right on your passing routes; knowing when to throw the ball for the route your receiver is running. Also so you can learn how to switch to the receiver and user catch, and if you've learned about it, to practice rocket and jetpack catching. Then when you move on to normal practice these things will come easier to you, but you are, of course, welcome to skip the offense only as well.

    It's a hard game. Start with playing the mini-camp/drills after a couple of houndred times you should be ready for a game.

    In action picture star mode, you in basic terms have administration of your participant and not the rest, which contain play calling. yet while your participant isn't interior the play then you definately get administration of the QB as popular.(Or a minimum of it quite is the way it was once). You never have administration over play calling in any condition. once you play interior the older modes, you have the conventional controls over play calling.
