Blitz (American football)

Summary

  • In American football, a blitz, or quarterback rush, is a defensive maneuver in which one or more linebackers or defensive backs, who normally remain behind the line of scrimmage during a play, are instead sent across the line to the opponent's side in order to try to tackle the quarterback. The name of the play is taken from the Blitzkrieg, a German strategy of the "lightning war" during World War II.
