Nice article.  Has a very nice assessment of why our base 3-4 isn't typical.  We can surprise 4 man rush.  

It's not always from the same 4 guys when the OL is facing 6 with two standing on the edge.  

And factoring how athletic they all are, the types we've targeted makes total sense.

Yeah I don't quite get why our defense hasn't been used before.  You can literally line up the same formation every play and rush only 4 every down and it constantly come from different directions.  I don't see how an oline can defend it at all.  I like how there is a name for it, it's not a new concept, but yet I've seen so many articles and videos dissecting our defense.  The Broncos have a great defense and are #1 in points allowed per game right now, but there are no videos out there doing deep dives on what makes them tick.

All in all, whatever it is, this defense is special, and smart people are realizing it.

Idk, I feel like it's making the front less big and more athletic, everyone can move, even the interior, BUT I think maybe it takes a special kind of athlete to be that type of lineman.

I don't understand how the article says this defensive philosophy leaves us in trouble if we can't get the pressure. I'm not sure that's any different than most other philosophies. I mean, we only rush 4 guys most of the time. It's not like we send all 6 or 7. They are just there to confuse and cause hesitation.....if for only a second.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      So you can explain how he was top 10....but won't.  We need to look it up ourselves?  I googled it.  Can't find the argument based on stats and facts.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By CRA · Posted

      Well, I think Nike has it all down to a sweet mathematical science to max revenue of what they average person will buy in terms of price....and what the average person will do with a dirty jersey.   Then they construct them accordingly.   and yeah, it's not about being tackled in them but I'm sure Nike knows exactly how each tier will react to washings...and then sunlight, heat, fading and on and on.    Just asking google about it there are tons of tiktoks, you tubes, reddit posts, etc with folks complaining about what a simple wash can do to a new one.    Your washing machine gets cooler tech....so you pay more now and it doesn't last as long .  My son's football cleats that help max speed got a hole in them before they even made it into the season this past year.     Now our football jersey's are lightweight with new mesh because it's totally better.....the end game is always because the big corporations have found the synergy between new and improved and not lasting as long.  That's my take.  I think everything is made to wear out sooner under the guise of but it's better today.
