Operation Sports Forums - View Single Post - Ideal Player Types for LeBeau Zone Blitz Scheme

RogueHominid · 11-15-2015, 02:52 PM

I'm looking to tinker with my defensive scheme next season and am considering trying to build a Steeler-style zone blitz 34, like what they ran under LeBeau.

Not being a Steelers fan myself, I'm curious particularly about the scheme/player types most appropriate for the cornerback and safety positions.

Thoughts?

At CB, are press/tackling players best, zone defenders, prototype guys with the speed to blitz and cover the deep 3rd?

At S, I know there's been a hammer at FS and a versatile SS. What are the best scheme/player types there?
