Zone blocking isn't chop blocking. Chop blocking is used in zone blocking, but it's used in every blocking scheme, and for some reason zone got a rep for being dirty. Watch a Patriot game and watch only the O lineman and FB. You'll see some chop. Zone blocking isn't a way you block, it's a whole scheme. Scout describes it much better than I can. And aren't you guys employing it this year?
