I gave this example earlier today, but remember the Dallas D a couple of years ago when it was #1. Zimmer was blitzing all over the place, and the average corners were not exposed. The next year, teams figured out how to negate their blitzs and their corners were exposed. Any corner in the NFL can cover a guy for 2 seconds, its when they have to cover them on double moves and deep posts that brings out the good and the bad in corners. It comes down to pressure. Teams have figured out where we are blitzing from and keep extra people in to account for that. Until GW changed a few things regarding blitz packages and we are better at confusing the QB at where the blitz is coming from we will have these problems. Thats why we were so good last year. Spring had what 6 or so sacks last year. How many this year, 0!!!. that blitz was awesome last year, but this year we haven't gotten any sacks out of it. We have to adapt, or its going to be a long road.

Good point.. I agree that adapting and coming up with new bitzs and scheme's is going to be the key.
