The biggest difference is the reliance on the cut blocking in the Shanahan scheme to create huge cutback lanes. You don't really see the long cutbacks in other variations of the zone blocking scheme. It's still zone blocking, you're still blocking an area instead of a man, but every play in Shanahan scheme (and Kubiak as well), the backside end is under immense pressure to play the cutback.

Doesn't seem like it would be a major difference for a guard as opposed to the tackle, but I've heard otherwise.
Sounds good, I'll look for it, your description seems to be good enough though.
