Knowledge is Power

I now understand exactly why our Oline looked the way it did and what it can turn into. I found this excellent write up on the ZBS that Seattle runs. A few major take aways. One it takes VERY smart OLinemen due to the pre-snap decisions and quick choices after the play develops. Two, it takes every Olinman seeing the same thing and knowing what the man on either side of him will do. Three, when run correctly ZBS is highly versatile and flexible.

Here are the articles
