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 used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.
    • Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.
    • Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
