  • I really don’t understand your use of “Blitz Percentage”.

    The amount of blitzes an offensive line faces is not a direct function of how the line performs. You can face more blitzes just based on who the opposing Defensive Coordinator is, who your QB is, what the game situation is, etc.

    Why is this being used to evaluate the Oline at all?

    I completely understand the intention of the “blitz deflection” metric as an attempt to measure the effectiveness of the line in picking up a blitz. But a flat:

    Blitz % - An offensive line that faces a high amount of blitzing will score more higher in this metric.

    Makes zero sense.
