[QUOTE="PackaSteelKC, post: 319507, member: 1800"] Alex Gibbs was the guy who is called the father of the Zone Blocking scheme that Denver and now Atlanta uses. The reason it is used is twofold. One it allows for average running backs to succeed in the NFL and two it is hard for defenses to know who is blocking who plus it tends to help on pass happy blitzing teams too over pursue. It's drawbacks are you need linemen who have quick feet and great hands plus long arms are always helpful. I think this is why Sitton has taken too it so well plus he is nasty and you need nasty offensive player. Chop Blocks were one of the distinguished things Denver was known for but it was legal then. It still is but the defensive lineman cannot be engaged already why another lineman so if you are double teaming someone you will get a 15 yard penalty as a Personal Foul now. Back then it was OK too do it but so many lineman were having knee injuries they mostly banned it. I hear Alex Gibbs quit this year early in the season from Seattle. I do not know what happened but I heard there was some disagreement with Coach Carroll. [/QUOTE]
