Have players key players....like they do in football. And yes cutbacks would be powerful versus the outside heavy defenses we see today.

Good call (1854 votes for, 215 against) So lets get this implemented already.

ugh this is so needed now with these counters. had an LDE get off his block and rush inside towards the Center .. only for the counter to hit the area the DE vacated. brutal

Ignoring CBs, only 1 guy ever has contain. Here it is the FS so the ROLB fucked up and over-pursued. But the FS is too wide to contain effectively, look at the space! The MLB has to get there and take away the cutback lane.

I like the concept and it is at least worth exploring.

First I am voting +1 great idea.

OP needs to be updated though.

Any LB, safety, and CB needs to have an option of Weak side contain OR strong side contain. We move our dots around in DPC and I don't trust GLB to choose whether my dot should be cheating weak or strong.

CB should be included. If I want to put the safety on the WR and use the CB to contain it should be allowed.

Maybe this should be aother choice in the default drop down.
Cover HB, and then the drop down would be zone, blitz, contain weak, contain strong.

http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1700747&pbp_id=3133134 - The LDE is assigned to the strong flat zone on this play.

He should never run up inside like that when he is assigned to the flat zone.

If the HB cuts inside and scores - fine. It's on me as a DC or on the dots not being able to do their job. If the DE stays out wide and the HB breaks the tackle and scores - fine. But when the DE is assigned to cover the flats like that he should never get sucked up inside that close to the LOS. He has to try to make the HB cut inside him.

Agreed. Perhaps have something coded in the shallow flats that limits the player sent there from coming back further than the edge of the zone.

This really needs to happen now that there are counter plays for the offense.
