As mentioned above the ZBS does work, even throughout the playoffs, assuming you have the right talent and more-importantly the year-to-year longevity to get all players on the exact same page.  I would say that the ZBS is much less-forgiving for 'weak links.'

Was especially effective in the late 90s when the broncos oline was allowed to dive at the knees of the d line with impunity
