You sound more like a whining coach here.
9 or 10 of those players are running to a planned spot on the field before they start blocking. This play relies on the timing of the team B players running to a spot and getting set up to block before the A players reach that spot. In this play the team A players are 10 yards closer than what team B is used to. This thows off the timing of the entire blocking scheme. You cannot expect team B to be able to do a decent job of blocking under those conditions.
