The Lions have adopted Denver's zone running scheme.
Explains center Dominic Raiola, "If you look at the Denver system, it doesn’t matter who’s back there. Any running back who comes in this league is going to have that. It’s going to give him a good chance in this offense." A simplistic explanation, but the switch could be good news for Tatum Bell who flashed at times in the Broncos system.

Still not going to be enough for him to get his 1600 yards or whatever it was though lol.

i don't think they have the talent to switch like that. Houston tried to switch and couldn't so they had a hybrid zone/gap blocking, but I read that Houston is switching to a 100% zone blocking scheme this year. Stewart would kill in that system.

He still won't be able to carry a full load...
