The allure of the 2-gap is that it is extremely effective against the run. Additionally, if you have wonderful DEs like Seymour and Warren (ala NE) you have DEs + a NT in Wilfork that are excellent against the run, can diagnose run v. pass quickly, and then procide an adequate pass rush out of base fronts ( i.e. a 3-4 odd with you DE's playing a 5-tech and NT playing a 0-tech).

The 2-gap is primarily designed to stop the run. You saw this with Jackson and Dorsey's PFF run defense ratings last year. However, in the current state of the NFL and w/ the Chiefs poor DEs, they are slow to diagnose and then provide a push/pass rush. This is why we get trashed in our base front when teams throw out of base personnel (2 Rb, 1 RB 2 TE, etc.)
