I'm not smart enough to notice. With so much shifting, blitzing and hybrid sets I just can't tell.

I heard a commentator (so take it for what it's worth) say that Ryan runs a variation of the 46 defense. He also said that Gregggggg Williams ran it while he was here.

To me its just looks like a 4-3 with a single high safety and an in the box safety lined up with the LB's.

Obviously there's more to it than that though. But it looks familiar. I remember Harper lining up that way frequently.

Think Ryan runs it with Vaccaro being that "rangy LB"?

No way, Vaccaro has the Doug Plank role written all over him.
