We all talk a whole lot about positions, and their roles on the field, but few of us really think about how central certain roles are to either the offense or the defense. We’ve said it here, that the absolute most important position group on the offense, is the line. The O-Line makes most college QBs many times better, and most college RBs even better than the QBs. Suffice it to say that without a solid offensive line the offense doesn’t go. This time we are on the ‘D’ side of the line of scrimmage, and about to step into what is arguably the most important single position group on the Defense, and eve the entire football team, namely the Linebackers (of which we are including the new STAR label in the group).
