The "blitz" in football is a defensive strategy.
-quote-
"The blitz is a defensive strategy in football that is extraordinarily effective at disrupting opposing offenses. When you run a blitz, you're essentially betting on the fact that the extra defensive pressure up front will either result in a sack of the quarterback or a quick containment of the ball behind the line of scrimmage. It's high risk, high reward."

A rush on the quarterback. Note the loss at the end of the Patriots perfect season was largely due to very effective blitzing that the Giants used. " a rush of the passer by a defensive linebacker, back, or end in football"
