    Very interesting comments by McD on the offense running primarily the zone blocking sdheme the past few weeks.

    If that is the case, and I have not reason to doubt that, then you would have to think day the offensive issues stem from teams not believeing Orton can beat them so they stack the line of scrimmage and bury the run.

    You have to think if there is anything this team should be great at it would be the zone blocking scheme. However… nothing works if you are one dimensional.
