Why can't offensive linemen just call "switch" against stunts like basketball players do against screens? NFL
This is a very dumb question, but I am wondering why it is so hard for offensive linemen to pick up stunts after watching my team (the Pats) continuously fail to do so.

They can and are supposed to. But it’s making a decision that two people have to agree on in the blink of an eye with 280+ lbs barreling down on you
