Message: [QUOTE="007, post: 3507913, member: 393"] Good analysis. The TE (Benson) stepped to the interior of the line at the snap and did not appear to look to block the DE. I think the movement of the TE in this formation is what the LB stacked behind the DE was keying on. He exploded to the A gap on Benson's first step and was in the backfield as TD was making the handoff. I think the CB "sneaking into the box" was rotating in to cover Benson or the back on a possible swing pass. The SS was rotating out to the slot. I would guess that one counter to this type of D would be to run more play action off the RB dive. Release the TE up the seam, run slant from the slot behind TE, and go or post routes from X and Z. I openly acknowledge this is amateur (at best) Monday morning coaching based on one play. [/QUOTE]
