Are the Days of Zone-Blocking all but over ?

Wow, Justice writes a post about Gibbs that demeans his contribution to the offense's development. What a shock.

As for the ZBS, it comes in more than one size. And, yes I agree, as it is for ANY system, its success is contingent on the collective talents of the individual players that run it.

The Texans played most of the season with a first round LT, a third round RT, but then some questionable pedigrees in the middle (recall Pitts was injured).

Just as the team had questionable linebacking until it drafted DeMeco and Cushing, I think it is tough to assume improvement will occur without an influx of talent on the interior OL this offseason.

Just have to weigh the needs: G/C, CB, FS, RB, etc. The offense ranked high, but it was way too one-dimensional for most of the year. Fix the talent issue, and the system will look much better.
