Start with that, then do some quick screen's/short fast slants. Gain yards in quick increments and march it down the field.

Yeah, the better plan is to come up with a blocking scheme that can counter the blitzes and have the receivers running routes into the zones that LB or Safety vacates in order to blitz.

If Tice wasn't so dead set against a true FB I can think of one simple way to counter that blitz Forte whiffed on. Line up in an I with the FB up. Motion Forte to the right slot which takes away a blitz from the right since the LB needs to cover him. Put the TE strong left to work Matthews or whoever the rusher is along with Webb.

FB takes the blitzing LB. TE chucks the DE/LB with Webb then slips out into the area vacated by the blitzing LB or out into the flat. The RCB is playing man under on Marshall so he's 15 yards down field which is where Cutler wanted to go an there no one in that short zone from the hash all the way out to the sideline.

If the LB follows the TE then the FB can release just past the line for a quick dump pass and some room to run. One of those two zones will be open and you have two potential receivers to cover them depending of what the LB does. Webb can control his guy once he gets his mitts on him and the chuck by the TE takes away his outside rush and give Webb time to control him.

I saw none of that last night. Maybe that was because Cutler was spending too much time trying to find Marshall open but despite that where were the check downs? Where were the quick slants? Tice spent all night trying to attack down field without the time to do it and as far as I could see that never changed.

Lol. With all due respect to Soul, this ain't rocket science and you don't have to be Vince Lombardi or Bill Walsh or Tom Brady to figure this shit out. Armchair fans all across the counrty were screaming for it. Really terrible coaching, playcalling, and execution by the general of the offense...for reasons I can't even hope to understand.
