my bad man, I didn't catch the thread!

They key to being effective against the 3-4 is to run the ball! when you pass 50-60 times the linebackers go into coverage and seem like 8 defensive backs against 4 or 5 receivers. Run heavy against the 3-4 and a couple of those linebackers will play up and you can mix in some play action in there and get mismatches. But Pass Happy Payton refuse to do that.
