Bills ran a 4-3 last year, as did the Lions.

Schwartz is a 4-3 coach.

 

[BigRedRage]

hmm i though buffalo was 3-4.

Moving on.

I am partial to 3-4 even though we cannot seem to get the proper OLBs to run the 3-4 at full efficiency.

Didn't the Cards play alot of 4-3 formations this year? Mixed it up?

Yes they did. Most times they had 5 or 6 in the box and then blitz or back out in coverage depending on what play was called. This was where Bowles really earned his keep.

I don't want any coach who asks his players to carry him off of the field after a regular season win...

They did some. When the FO Annual comes out in midsummer, I'll have a more specific idea. But I still think it was 70-30 or better with three down linemen.

I mean, the upside is that it's not like we have a DeMarcus Ware-type who can only play OLB in a 3-4 and a ton of money/draft capital invested in him. On the flip side, it's also not like we have a Jared Allen-type who can only play rush end.

The challenge if you want to flip schemes is what do you do with Alex Okafor and Matt Shaugnessey?

 

[TRW]

I don't care what scheme Schwartz uses I don't want him here at all. If you want a cheap shot, undisciplined, much penalized defense then he's your guy.

No thank you.
