Some choose the blitz lb because they like the majors? What a novel idea.

Did I say that? Or did I say they've chosen the arch AND put 10 points in blitz. People tell you they want to do nothing but blitz with their LBers and I ask them why they want to blitz with a dot that was clearly built to sit on the bench.
try blitzing non blitzers. what do you need to have an effect on a blitz? cause a hurry. how do you cause a hurry? figure out the weak point of the offensive pass plays listed. see if that team runs thoseplays and blitz it according to weakness or weaknesses 30 to 50 percent of the time. and of coursethis adjusts on a gameto game basis. blitz everyone now and then even the big fat retarded linebacker you signed to pretend to stop powerbacks by flezing his pecs.

I blitz for:
1) Sacks 2) Hurries 3) Pressure to throw early 4) TFLs on run plays 5) FFs
In that order. I run a lot of single coverage and don't always have help over the top, so I need my blitz to force the ball out before the QB can get the open targets.

which came first the shitty builds or the shitty play? It doesn't matter.
A blitzer is a liability when doing anything other than blitzing and they barely blitz better than a coverage guy.
CBs, Speed DEs, and rush specialist DTs give you all the pressure you need.
160 spd 70str blitzing LB doesnt do much off the edge any more. but, if you blitz them up the middle on top of a pass rush DT with 2 pass rush DEs and a blitzing CB coming off the edge..........
