O-line blocking schemes

[gbill2004]

Reading up on Bob Wylie I discovered he specializes in power blocking schemes. Zone blocking is another popular blocking scheme. I don't know enough about these two schemes or about the strengths/weaknesses of the o-linemen on our team to do an analysis.

My question is do the Bombers have the right personnel to be running a power blocking scheme instead of zone blocking? If not, that could be a reason why Wylie hasn't made a big difference this season.

Wylie is not the problem... we stopped moving the pocket and stopped selling playaction.  From the sounds of it, that was re-established last game and the results were noticeable.

 

Again, MB slowly slid into a more conservative system...  we knew this would happen.

I'm curious to hear what JBR has to say on this. Not saying Wylie is a problem but wondering if we have the right personnel to fit the scheme. I'd also like to get a better understanding of the two schemes.

We don't know if Willy is uncomfortable and/or ineffective as a roll-out QB, so there is that.

Then lets have Marvel(my + ? nickname for him) in there more often

I would say we have big, strong, slower linemen so the power blocking scheme would fit them best.
