ZONE BLITZ A defensive package combining a blitz with zone pass coverage. Allows the defense to choose the blitzer after the offense shows formation and pass coverage requirements, and features unpredictable blitzes from different linebackers and defensive backs. Invented by coach Dick LeBeau.   ZONE-STRETCH RUNNER Running back best suited to a zone-blocking scheme; a RB who can slide along the line of scrimmage, read blocks then cut back into open lanes.   Z-RECEIVER A term used in offensive play calling that usually refers to the flanker, or the wide receiver that lines up off the line of scrimmage. For example, "Panther Gun 85 Slant Z Go" tells the Z-receiver to run a go (also called a fly or streak) route.
