    Chicago Bears If DEFENSE can double team ... why not the other way arounnd?

    Is a blocking WR feasible ? Do we have that ?

    Marshall from split end and Bennett as slot ...

    Jeffery (an unproven commodity) at flanker.

    Cutler tosses to the left ...

    both Marshall and Bennett are deep ...

    the ball is coming down ...

    who takes the ball ...

    and who blocks?

    Mix and match WR's in that scenario.

    If our WR's can double team as blockers ...

    It's too easy.

    One series it's Bennett, the next series it's Marshall, the next series its Jeffery.

    Then we have the LITTLE GUYS and big TIGHT ENDS.

    This could be neverending keeping the other team off balance.

    We havent even ran the ball yet.

    I'm going to get laughed off the boards for this, BUT RW, Mr. Mittens, actually wasn't that bad at blocking in the second half of the season. Thats the only thing nice I can say about him (besides he's gone).

    At least being a good running team there is a bit of a focus on better downfield receiver blocking. I think Jeffery is going to be a excellent receiver but I'm not sure on his blocking. Now had we drafted Hill who came from the option game where blocking was paramount that would be interesting. But I'll take the more polished receiving game of Jeffery.

    I think your going to see the big WR's get in their share of knocking down the small DB's in mismatches Jackie.
    Arguing on the internet is like winning the special olympics, even if you win your still messed up.

    Hey Short you notice those DB's aint getting shorter but taller?

    Some of the recent crop could be point guards in the NBA.

    They call your idea flooding the zone or brushing the coverage. It's done all the time.

    If you have two guys in the exact same spot, one defender could cover two guys. Besides, the blocker couldn't block the defender until the ball was touched, so it's not like Jeffrey could level Charles Woodson before the pass arrived and Marshall could catch the ball and walk into the endzone.
