3-4 Defense This Season?


PantherPride74

Recommended Posts

I have not been to training camp but I have heard that our offense is running the ball down the defense's throat. We need to swith to a 3-4 defense this season to make up for the loss of Kemo on the D-line. We have the LB's to run a 3-4 defense but the question is will Fox change, plus it would make Julius happy and maybe he would re-sign after this season.

LDE: Tyler Brayton / Everette Brown

NT: Damione Lewis

RDE: Julius Peppers

LOLB: Na'il Diggs

LILB: Dan Connor

RILB: Jon Beason

ROLB: Thomas Davis

LCB: Chris Gamble

SS: Chris Harris

FS: Charles Godfrey

RCB: Richard Marshall

I think it could work but like I said will Fox change?

fox is 4-3 guy, meeks is a 4-3 guy, we do not have the personnel for a 3-4 mainly because in order to run one you need a big NT which would have been kemo. plus it isnt as easy as just waking up one morning and changing he whole defensive scheme weve drafted for since fox got here.

That would easily be the smallest and most bullied defensive line in league history. Have you ever seen a 3-4 defense? Do you know what a 3-4 end is? Damione Lewis is a 3-4 end. Peppers is a 3-4 OLB. If those 3 went up against 5 linemen, we would have zero sacks from our D-line at season's end. Much less, do you know how long it takes to switch to a 3-4 defense? It's a complete defensive overhaul.

Terrible idea. Lets squash this right now! NO MORE 3-4 THREADS!

We don't have a NT to play 3-4. Fox doesn't run it and neither does Meeks.

Kemo is the only guy on our roster who could play the NT.....and the Ravens let him go b/c he really wasn't too good at it (I think)

    • I don't think we have been good yet. We were generally effective yesterday when we got scoring opportunities but struggled to move the ball under a heavy blitz and new receivers who he is still trying to develop better chemistry with and a makeshift line. And last week the comeback was impressive until it fizzled out. But week one we were bad and we have way too many penalties and picks and the occasional WTF play. We were better yesterday and the offense had no turnovers although special teams did. We are a work in progress as any panther fan would expect. I think we have the most rookies on our roster compared to any other team. No one thinks we are all that amazing or thar Bryce is the answer for sure. But we aren't the worse either and this constant negative narrative really is ridiculous and drowns out everyone else. I doubt I will be here much especially if we lose. The conversation is so negative and constant I don't even check in until Wednesday. But I will be here like always since 2004. Just not engaging in conversations with folks who just want to bitch and complain over and over with anything they can find as if that makes things better or they are saying something we all don't feel at times. Most of us realize this is year 2 of a rebuild and there are ups and downs. You have to be comfortable on the roller coaster. But anytime you point out the good you get inundated with negative crap as if we didn't see it too......
    • 🤣 Nick is the bed sore on the backside of our defense! If we are going youth movement like Canales says, he should be relegated to back up special teams coverage.
