Message: [QUOTE="RandomGuy, post: 3100947, member: 6422"] I think much of this is overall scheme.(counter opinions welcome) In a ZBS much of the Oline blocking will be lateral, and the RPO has the linemen surrendering any forward push before 3 yards. As the field shortens, it's easier to clog any developing holes with garbage (why we need an Elmore). I LIKE it for a long field, because it works with the spread. Shanahan's Broncos were glorious at this. A newer concept, with less solutions, at the time. I think Elmos role is to combat the solutions. We use a modern scheme, but have to use a fullback to help. 1 step forward, 1 step back. I'm all for the ZBS in space, but I would love to see some power drive blocking on designed runs. My guess the theory here, is master of all trades = Jack of none. I've seen others use both with success. If we never use power/man, I dont expect a push, ever, cuz that's not how zbs works. [/QUOTE]
