A Dog Named Brian Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 In theory, that's supposed to be good. But, lightest=/= most athletic unfortunately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FentayeJones Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 If you notice, all of the of the lightest teams run the ZBS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlantafan21 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 If you notice, all of the of the lightest teams run the ZBS. Does Seattle play zone or power? If expect power with Lynch and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blizzard_falcon Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Does Seattle play zone or power? If expect power with Lynch and all.They run a ZBS. Our o-line coach was their asst o-line coach last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romfal Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 And looking where Tennessee is, easy to see why Levitre wasnt a fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lornoth Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Does Seattle play zone or power? If expect power with Lynch and all.Yeah that's why people get confused about a "Power" scheme vs the ZBS. ZBS doesn't exclude power RB's by any means.

Atlfanstckndenver Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) This is always interesting to me. Pittsburgh and Philly along with Seattle where very successful at running the ball last year. In fact so too where Denver and Baltimore. Basically it doesn't all come down to overall weight. That much should be obvious. We where after all arguably the worst rushing team in the league last year when we would've been at least a little heavier considering Blalock would bump us up that list at least a little bit singlehandedly. Lol. Regardless one thing I'm pretty sure of, is that at minimum, by the end of the season our running game will be trending upward. There's nowhere to go but up anyway, so that's not going out on too big of a limb. Edited September 7, 2015 by Atlfanstckndenver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaptain Krazy Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 The next four teams at the bottom of that list - Denver, Pittsburgh, Seattle, and Baltimore - have had a lot more success than the group at the top of the list - NYG, Tennessee, Indianapolis, San Diego, Oakland, Buffalo...so either this chart is good news for the Falcons or irrelevant...

Atlfanstckndenver Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) Me too. Even Blalock and VeeTek.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWaD0ee4nc8i miss that line as a whole in general, but i do think you overrate Svitech man. The guy was a solid blocker, but nobody ever accounts for the fact that our play calling and gameplans always involved giving him help. He was good, especially considering salary compared to Baker, but my goodness according to some of you guys he was a as beater taking names. Lol keep in mind, he did basically nothing after moving on. So while you like to use Svitech as yet another excuse to bash Dimitrov, you've got to include all of the other 31 teams for apparently making the same mistake. I could go on, but unfortunately I think it would be pointless. I'll leave it at that. Edited September 7, 2015 by Atlfanstckndenver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunDevil3 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Just watched my school ASU get destroyed on the offensive line against TAMU this weekend. I just pray I don't have to watch my two main teams not able to block a lick all year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
