Hmm dunno about that, that sounds like a huge mismatch, surely the C or G should be picking up the DT, the FB should be attempting to get to the next level, which would be LBs.
Do you have an example?
I just used the DT as an example of the first one who gets in the backfield, it could be a DE, LB or whomever, either way the FB just runs right by whoever has penetration.
I would like to see an example of the FB or HB (on FB runs) ever picking up these players.
Having a good FB is great if you have a HB and/or that can block for you because he will get to the lb and turn a 3 yrd gain into a big gain.
I guess my best example could be any game that you run on 3rd and short. There is penetration 75% of the time and its usually all up to the HB to break that first tackle or its a 2 yd loss. Watch any game
