I am a much bigger fan of the traditional power blocking scheme. Zone blocking can work well for teams like Houston who know how to run it well and have the personal for it but to me I think it would be better off if the Cowboys do a power blocking scheme. I am not even sure which one we plan on running this yr? _________________ AMERICA'S TEAM and 5x SB champions = DALLAS COWBOYS!!!!!

2 years ago, we have ran elements of both although it seemed that there was an emphasis on ZBS. There were times that it worked. Last year with the signings of Livings, Burningduece and cook, we went back to predominantly power blocking. I think this year will largely depend on the draft. If we draft Warmack or Fluker, it would make sense to go with PBS. If we draft Cooper... I could see a return to a ZBS. |

Cooper is so damn flexible though we could do either with him! Cooper is my favorite player in the draft this yr! _________________ AMERICA'S TEAM and 5x SB champions = DALLAS COWBOYS!!!!!
