Sometimes, the answer to a mismatch is....there is no answer!
When I played Mike from the DFW here in Los Angeles last month, I faced just that scenario. His corners with the arms forward simply knocked my receivers over. His other zoning guys spinning around handled anybody I tried to slip out by stacking the receivers. His defensive line manhandled my line. It was a total mismatch and there really wasn't much to learn by lining up play after play to hear the board buzz and watch all my guys fall over. So, I took the time to call the game and learn by asking questions about how Mike created his team and how I might be able to improve mine. He was most gracious in helping me out and teaching me some of his tricks of the trade. Reggie Rutledge walked over and helped out as well. That to me was a very nice moment. There are some in this hobby that don't like to share their knowledge and that hurts us all. Mike and Reggie are true class acts though!
