Rookie,

Pictures never do the work justice and I am one who knows that for sure! I love that Chicago Bears team! As a matter of fact, that team is on my list to do.

That's one of the greatest O-Lines ever but did not get the acclaim they deserve. The left guard looks pretty strong because his balance seems a little towards the front and side left which will make him "stick" to the player more.

Keep customizing! You're gettin' better and better and more of an ADDICT!!! Right now, that's what I am doing!!!

Very nice job!!!

To truly impact the game in a cerebral way, you've got to be able to run something other than straight ahead power. As the game has begun to evolve, many think that you can only be effective running the ball with straight-on power. Some guys complain that holes never open up and you simply get a scrum. Then it becomes a matter of who's stronger.

When you tell people about the zone blocking techniques, they give you the obligatory acknowledgment but you would have to had experience its success first-hand, either 1) being the one one running the plays or 2) having the plays ran on you.

The key to the zone blocking schemes is that on any given play, there are 10 different pressure points that the defense has to cover. The question is whether you make the right read or not? If you do, something is always open. The DFW may be making a very big mistake by going from the 3-1 ratio to 3-2 or 2-2 (whatever they will be doing). Some rules are always implemented to stop a team that has great success with something. This may be one of those things.

However, you will have to figure out what pressure point is open because it cuts the options in half. I hope you can follow my thinking here.

But the key to zone blocking is never to take on strength head on. All is takes is a slight push and your back can be through the hole with a blink of an eye!! Never get discouraged using zone blocking and always set things up with decoy plays.

The zone blocking schemes can provide a natural pass protect wall that is reliable for 3 seconds. That's all you need under the Shootout system! If you get 3 seconds to pass, someone is open for major yardage.

It takes some years to master zone blocking. Not many people will stick with it long enough to be good at it because like creatures of habit, we go back to what we think will work, i.e., straight ahead smash mouth football. Nothing is wrong with that as under this style of play, it allows for all types of diversity. This is what helps guys create teams in their own image.

Right now, I only know of 4 coaches who have been willing to try this at any level of interest. They are Mike Robertson, Dru Sparks, LeRon King, and myself. Two of these people have 8 championships between them and the other two are protege's who just need experience.

The blocking schemes work. I will attest that on every play, someone is usually open and it's a lot easier to open the hole than by rugby scrum. I am glad to see that something made an impact on you to see the game past just winning but from a cerebral perspective. I think it will be worth your while to venture into this aspect of the game.
