I'm tired of seeing a 5 yard run up the middle as a victory for the D.

That's what's intriguing about Fangio's scheme. He runs a 4-3 under with 3-4 personnel. Our players are a nice fit. Nnadi at the 0-tech, Jones as a 3-tech, Bailey as a 5-tech. Not sure about Hitchens, but O'Daniel is a perfect fit at LB. Best of all, it revolves around OLBs which happens to be our strength.
If I'm reading into Reid's comments this offseason, he doesn't want a 4-3 because he likes speed at OLB. This is a scheme that allows Reid to still keep that without... y'know... settling for Bob Sutton.
