Steelers Hopeful Zone-Blocking Scheme Kickstarts Run Game 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Fri May 24, 2013 4:33 am

The Pittsburgh Steelers hope to kickstart their running game with the outside zone, one-cut blocking style.


The Denver Broncos and Houston Texans have been successful with this zone blocking scheme.


The Steelers have a big, young and agile offensive line that suits this style.


Jonathan Dwyer led the Steelers last year with 623 yards, the lowest total for their leading rusher since Merrill Hoge rushed for 810 in 1991.
