[QUOTE="gtg936g, post: 35346, member: 623"] My understanding of our scheme may be incorrect, but I think our tackles read the player they are supposed to block on the fly. The center calls the base scheme, but if the defense shifts or moves at the snap of the ball the Tackles have to read the D and determine how to get to their assigned player as the play develops. Sometimes they get confused and take the wrong guy, and sometimes the D prevents one of our guys from getting off the line and attacking the player he is supposed to. Our blocking is very technical. It is probably the most technical scheme I have seen for an offensive line. The slip and release are as important in some cases as the actual block. Some defensive concepts are designed to just tie up our tackles such that they cannot release and block a linebacker. More pass oriented teams have base protections, and in some cases zones that call for them to defend an area, and not necessarily a player. This has its' own set of technical challenges. Our offense is very complex, and when it get's executed correctly it is magic to watch. [/QUOTE]
