[QUOTE="JorgeJonas, post: 194297, member: 2171"] Let me see if I can try this again. I don't think a single person on this board - certainly not one that I've read - is capable of looking at a defensive alignment and pointing out the proper block, technique, timing, and appropriate adjustments for all 11 offensive players. I certainly get that we can see a route (though I hate when Mel Kiper wannabes start talking about route trees) and ask why we didn't do something different. But the truth is there is usually a reason, and I don't think anyone here can identify that reason. I know I sure as hell can't. I get that we can generally - and I emphasize generally - understand what we are trying to do and maybe do some of the cost/benefit analysis associated with that, but we can't talk intelligently about the means by which that strategy is implemented. Lastly, none of us has the time in our respective day to know in depth what the individual strengths and weaknesses are of 85 different players. Coaches work 100 hours a week to acquire that knowledge. We simply don't have it. This wasn't meant as an attack, but rather to point out our limitations in this field. [/QUOTE]
