Shabby, this thread was supposed to be about lineman. However since you mentioned angling recievers after the catch then I will say this- if you only know how to play smash mouth corner back techniques and consistently allow recievers to get past your corners (even by 2 yards)then yes there will be a lot of yards after the catch. That is the whole point of the rule, to promote various styles of playing pass defense and to promote speed on the outside instead of smash mouth power (which I think is unrealistic).

Yes, I am aware it is about linemen, I did not mention angling the receiver after the catch, Geno first did and I was commenting on that!!
