I love him at Center though in the mold of many of the good/great athletic technician types. And I don't mind an entire side of a line being ZBS material, like a athletic LT/LG... as long as one side can be relied on to kick ass when the time comes. Having Willis at RT is a great start and if we could add one kick ass RG... then we'd have a strength and dependability on short yardage situations. That's all I ask - to be able to kick ass on 3rd and 1 and normally know you're going to make it. In other news... Broncos are down 7 with 2:44 remaining.

I know he's not exactly ZBS material (neither is Ray Willis)... but what is the ZBS if you're 4th and 1??? Doesn't there come a point where every once in awhile you need to line up from your man and kick his ass?

I think Schmitt inactive for the first time all year qualifies. Did he sustain an injury in practice? Is there something else that hasn't been reported. I understand they may throw it more but he's proven to have steady hands out of the backfield. From purely a blocking aspect, Knapp seems to throw it to the FB (at least in recent weeks) as keep him in to pick up the blitz. So to me, it unusual. Terrill played a ton against them last time. More Mebane and Cole, less Terrill this week. PLEASE! Nothing unusual? I think Schmitt inactive for the first time all year qualifies. Did he sustain an injury in practice?
