He also does a great job of understanding blocking schemes to capitalize on blitzes.

These athletes will destroy your offensive game plans by making plays forcing 4th downs, causing sacks, and forcing turnovers. These are the guys you put an extra blocker on, not throw to their side and acknowledge the fact they are on the field.
