Thats not what i was talking about, though. I was talking about us needing to keep a rb, te, and an extra olineman, ALL on 1 play to block their front 3 + Smith.


Yes, you can spread defenses out when your offensive line is healthy & not struggling against line stunts. Good coaches adjust accordingly to what the opposition is doing against them. Kromer & Carmichael didn't & the results showed on the field.

Also remember early in the season Rodgers & Brady were struggling too? Their offensive lines had injuries which resulted in both of them getting plenty of pressure. Since then both the Packers & Patriots have gotten fairly healthy on their O-Line's. Its amazing what protection can do for QB's really.

Which goes back to a point i made earlier in the thread. We couldnt block those same 49er players last year with a 100% healthy oline + Nicks + Sean Payton on the sideline. Our oline seems to hold up well vs. the rest of the league. I dont think its a stretch to say we just can't block that front 7.
