I have a riddle for you
If I throw the phrases: "new coach", "new scheme", "wrong personnel", "staying with it for too long"...
Which Saints group am I talking about, the 2012 defense or the 2013 offensive line? Answer ~ Both! The thread about "what did greenbay do..." made me think about something. When you look up zone blocking on the internet the first thing it says is "In a zone blocking scheme, fleet-footedness and athletic ability trump size as desirable qualities in offensive linemen." Then I look at Brown and both knees in braces, Strieff, DLP, Evans hamstring and back slow him down... I do not see fleet-footed anywhere in that group. Our offensive line is suffering from the same exact thing our defense suffered from last year. Personnel and scheme do not match. Ive seen this same question asked a whole lot also "how can our offensive line get so bad in one year"? Easy.... Implement a scheme that doesn't fit our personnel. I will narrow it a little further. What aspect does our offensive line suffer the most in? Run Blocking. Zone blocking is a run blocking scheme and not a pass blocking scheme... We are still ok at pass blocking when we are not injured. We are not built like this describes: Therefore we can not do what this describes: Football 201: Understanding the Zone Blocking Scheme - Behind the Steel Curtain The only question that remains for me: How long will we continue to try and do what we are not built to do? |
