Isn't a nose tackle only in the 3-4? Or do you call the left DT a nose tackle too.... I'm confused!

It's the over and under tackles in the 4-3. The over can be referred to as the nose tackle. The term Nose tackle is typically used for a 3-4, but it can also be used to to indicate the bigger of the two tackles, which is why I used it in this case.

So Tank is our over tackle on our team. Just a space eater/run stuffer, right?

No he's another undertackle. The only person even close to being a overtackle is Boone and they lined him up as the DE-square pegs in round holes.
