But Herm's comment today made me think "3-4 defense."

Quote:

Q: You talked a lot about your defensive line depth. Now you’re going to be down Jared Allen with a suspension. Do you still feel good where you are for those two games?

EDWARDS: “We’ll do some things a little bit different. We’ve been practicing on that. We’ll do what we have to do. We know what we’re going to do but we’re not to talk about it.”

So what, the 3-4 is whats in in the NFL right now.

With our linebackers a 3-4 would be nice. Tank in the middle. nice.

Alot of people around here get pissed off when you talk about the Chiefs moving to a 3-4. I'm actually one of them. We don't have the personnel. But with Allen out, I'm thinking Wilkerson, Boone and McBride could be the down linemen, with Edwards and Nap in the middle and DJ and Hali on the outside.

IMO, the 3-4 w/ 4 standing LB's makes your defense much more versatile.

IF we are playing 3-4 we should then have Bell playing his natural position like he did in PIT. Then and only then should he be allowed to be on the field.

A scheme isn't going to make Bell any good. He blows. The dude's shoulders are ****ed.

Damn I miss Dan. He was great for post game laughs on the locker room show.

That comment has no indication of running a 3-4. You think Sperm is just going to change schemes that hasn't been practiced all preseason due to one DRUNK then switch back to 4-3 once he is back? Goqueer you have about the worst football knowledge around out of the people who act like they know what they are talking about.

I'm a proponent on switching to the 3-4. I know we don't have the talent right now to run it, but overall, I like the scheme better. It sets you up far better for confusing the offense, it gets more athletes on the field (trading a DL for a faster, more athletic LB) and you can run the same coverages out of it.

B_Ambuehl · 09-01-2007, 09:10 PM

The personnel doesn't really work. The strength of the team is Jared Allen, DJ and Donnie Edwards. Allen is best as an end in the 4-3. DJ and Edwards are both ideal 4-3 OLBs. DJ could be more of an inside linebacker in the 3-4.....like Donnie Edwards was in San Diego. He's way too small to be an OLB in the 3-4.

I don't know what he said that would make you think 3-4, but I guess anything is possible.
