Instead of just having a man "Blitz", there should be a way to set a default option for the play, such as "Outside", "Inside", or "Straight" (the normal one as it is now). It would make gearing a play toward inside or outside runs more concrete--players would need to see if holes develop and switch their paths on the fly if a better one opens, which most RL defenders have to do.

The tradeoff is in plays that don't go right at the defense: With greater play customization comes different ways to beat it. If a play defaults to "Outside Blitz"es and the offense runs up the middle, the offense beats the play. If the defeneders have good Vision, they can read and react to it, but they'd be at a disadvantage.

I think this would allow a greater variety of options in what a DC wants out of a particular play. What do you think?

I'd rather see gap assignments for LBers, would make more sense to me... but that's just me

That's along the lines of what I was thinking. Didn't remember what that was called. "Outside" and "Inside" are more relative directions than the gaps are, obviously; those were more examples of types of blitz assignments rather than detailed ones. Thanks for adding on to the idea.
