[QUOTE="mradtke66, post: 462763, member: 4199"] Not to pick you specifically, but I dislike referring to "not-zone" blocking as "power." It implies that "zone" is "weak." This isn't necessarily the case. A more appropriate name for the scheme we don't normally run is "man to man" run blocking. The play side guard is responsible for this man, the center this man, etc. Consider a run play that most of us recognize as "student body right." That is a zone running play, there are no "this blocker to this defender" assignments. If the word "power" blocking must use, reserve it for 'actual' power-block, which in my experience, means the particular case of the back-side guard pulling and either leading up in the hole or kicking out the widest play-side defender.
