Rule
Technically if you look at it you're really playing a 4 man line. Just because the DE's are lined up outside the offensive tackles doesn't mean there's only two men on the line. Your initial reaction is, "Nice, only two guys on the line I'm going to run all day on this guy," but as they find out running up the middle on this type of play is difficult. If your linemen are all downfield then you should have the dials turned harder to pick up the linebackers. DE's are taught to keep the play inside and not let the backs to the outside. If you line the DE's up on the tackles you can't accomplish that. So next time you see it (and you will if you play anyone from Harrisburg) look a little harder, there's (4) guys on the d-line they're just disguised a little bit. :p
