Good article I came across regarding one of the trendier blocking schemes in the league.

Not really applicable to us, especially with our new regime, but worth a read anyways.

It's not trendy and it is applicable. Every NFL team uses zone blocking now. It may not be their staple running game and they may not cut at the ankles but they do indeed use it.

Just to reinforce "it's not trendy" here is some dude teaching it to kids.....
