So you need help on offense, right? As far as passing against the blitz use short in/out routes (or hooks). Hot route an offensive player to run a drag route, those have a pretty high success rate. If they consistently blitz from one particular side then hotroute an extra man to block for you. For the rushing game all I can say is don't sprint as soon as you get the ball. Sit back for a sec, let the play develop, find a hole and attack it. Look out for bump n run coverage too. The D will put pressure on your receivers to delay their routes which will buy the blitz time to sack you. Put a man in motion and hike the ball before they settle in order to beat the bump n run coverage.

on defense play as the safeties and user pick everything.. thats what i do.. and on offense send guys in motion to see if the d is in zone or man and hot route recievers accordingly.. i like to send at least 2 recievers deep to open everything up the use the other recievers with in/out routes, posts and slants.. and listen to GIXXER for running the ball.. btw what kinda gixxer u got i have a 05 600
