Hey Warren, Was it hard for you to transition from a four man front in Tampa to a 3 man front in Oakland? Do you think Glenn Dorsey can do it in K.C.?

Warren Sapp, NFL Network
Glenn Dorsey's in trouble and so is Kansas City for trying to force him. Thank God I only had to do it for 16 games. It's not hard, it just takes away all the advantages you possess. Being fast, quick, agile in the 4-3. The 3-4 doesn't allow your talents to come out.

Your Opinion on Larry Johnson and how he will do this year and why??

Warren Sapp, NFL Network
I think if Larry Johnson takes in some good quality offseason work, I think he can get 1,700-1,800 yards and double-digit touchdowns. He's a nightmare to tackle.

I never really cared for much for Sapp while he was playing.

Some of the stuff he has said on NFLN since he has retired I agreed with, some of it I thought was way off base.

Not sure here if his comment about Dorsey is him thinking they are playing him at DT or DE???

I see by your avatar that Knowshon is an LJ fanboy. How cute.

They have a 1-gap assignment, which means it's NOT their job to tie up blockers. You said to show you a team that doesn't use it's 3-4 linemen to tie up blockers and I just did.

Canty must be good at something since the Giants gave him a $7 million per year deal.

Canty will probably see time at DT in NY but with a draft pick of Sintim..and some of their other moves the Giants can give 3-4 looks now.

Silock · 05-17-2009, 12:58 AM

EVEN IF Dorsey plays the majority of time in the 3-4 and just ties up blockers, if he can penetrate and use his skills on the rare 4-3 switch . . . what's the problem, exactly?

I'm sure the head coach wants to run the same scheme as the GM. After all, the GM gets to pick the coach, too.

I foresee Dorsey playing end on regular downs, and NT on obvious passing downs with Magee coming in to play end.

Your green dots say you are "almost as cool as Mecca"

I would think it would say "behold I am Mecca" or something along those lines.....anyway carry on

They already said Magee would be sliding inside on passing downs. Remember, he was a 4-3 DT in college, just like Dorsey.

B_Ambuehl · 05-17-2009, 10:37 AM

People should differentiate what 3-4 scheme they're referring to. There is basically a Philips 3-4 and Parcells 3-4. Parcells and Bellichiks are 2 gap, Phillips is a lot more 1-gap. Seymour got 8 sacks playing a 2 gap D, which is a rarity.

The one we're evolving to is most likely the 2 gap variety like Parcells and Bellichiks.

Should be interesting to see what our 4-3 pass rush package might be. Magee, Jackson, Hali and Johnston?

They've already said Dorsey isn't starting.
