4-3 or 3-4 defense?
The 4-3 defense has been the most predominant front on the D line in the NFL for years. Recently teams have been converting to the 3-4 on a regular basis.(two more teams have converted this year) GW runs a base 4-3 with some variations on the 3-4.(as seen in the Superbowl) The strength of the 3-4 is it's OLB'er. It also helps to have space eaters on the D line to occupy the O line while sending in LB'ers to get to the ball carrier or QB. Both teams in the SB last year run a base 4-3 even though GW threw a bunch of 3-4 looks at Peyton which he wasn't ready for. Which do you prefer? Also, do you think we have the personnel to run the 3-4 more?
