Can we Please Please Go back to the Zone blocking scheme? it suites Pollard much better than running him in to the back of the Guard and Centers buts because they cannot open the middle of the defense up. Who are some OL coaches that can teach this i know Philipan could not and probably why he's gone. (Or hes a scape Goat like some say)

...I didnt know they changed that aspect. I thought the blocking would remain the same.

Only receivers, TE's and RB's would execute different. Then again, what do i know?

I just tell people what aisle the hammer and nails are. ;)

Agree, think they did away with the zone blocking scheme, after the OC left who was with the Skins (can see his face but forgot his name).

I believe they employ an inside zone scheme, what you are referring to is an outside zone scheme likes the 49ers/Rams use.
