That's why when running a rub or pick route it's shorter which makes it more 1 on 1. The Patriots and Belicheat run Rub or Pick routes better than any other team in the NFL....sometimes I feel they get away with blocking 5 yards down field alot...
PS. The thread title reminds me of my army recruiter...
However, if double teaming a receiver on the other side? It works!
