Brown and Gold??

It works and it doesn\'t work. You\'re right about having the linebacking corp we would need IF we sign another stud linebacker. The 3-4 also alleviates the need for a new DT to replace hand, but Grady Jackson is a good fit as a nose guard. However, the \"anchors\" of our defense, Grant and Howard, are not really fit for the 3-4, so I\'m still not sure it would work.

Also, I think the Saints have had good years outside of the 4-3. We led the league in sacks for what, 3 straight years, using the 4-3. We\'ll never ever again have the kind of dominance up front as we did during the Dome Patrol days. At least, I don\'t forsee it.
