Every NFL team ALREADY switches personnel groups for passing situations. Defenses already bring in different linemen. My question is why shouldn't offenses do the same thing.
with OL its a little different these guys have to gel and play like a single unit not 5 players.. that would be hard with to many sub packages.
Now not many years ago we did rotate a few of our OL spots.. I cant remember the year or the guys anymore but when we didn't have top flight talent and needed to keep guys fresh. so it could be a possibility..
But it could also end up being a hard tell if certain linemen are only on certain play types. where as Defense do switch and can get caught with wrong personel on the field etc..
The real downside here fred is we are having trouble finding 5 quality OL guys.... who would you want coming in off the bench to replace one of them if they couldn't beat them in the first place for the job?
