Generally the person assigned to block the LB goes straight for the LB instead of double teaming the DT first then releasing to the LB.
When the offense is running a zone blocking scheme then sometimes a DT can tie up multiple blockers on an run, but otherwise a DT can not "create" a double team when the offense is not trying to double team him in the first place. Do you think no player is assigned to block the LB if the DT is double teamed?
So if you are saying that we need a DT that demands more double teams I will agree with you, but we already have Geno who demands double team as often as any DT in the league. So I don't know how our LBs would not already be benefiting from those.
