There should be a significant penalty for teams that run the wildly popular (and successful) blitz 2 or more players every down defense (I am much more concerned about this than other non blitz defenses such as man cover 2, or any offensive play abuse I have seen, unless it's the same play every down).
That's an interesting idea. I might give that a whirl.
I agree with this a lot. If a team is sending 6 or more blitzers, and the QB has 1-2 seconds to make a decision, it should be a big play. The concept of blitzing 6 is you're taking a gamble that you can either get to the QB or the QB panics before he utterly destroys your team by finding a hole in your coverage.
