switching to 3-4?

Im sure he'll evaluate the talent and run a little of both. Don't think it would be out of question to see brown and norwood at DE and then stand up and drop back into coverage if he thinks we have the ability to do it. nothing wrong with mixing it up.

since we hired Ron Rivera as the head coach and he is known for his 3-4 D. how do you guys fill about the switch. Do we have the personnel?

He was the DC for the Bears the last time they went to the Superbowl, considering they pretty much rode the Defense to the Superbowl that year you could say that he's a better 4-3 coach then a 3-4 coach.

in 2005 his 4-3 allowed an average of 12 pts a game

in 2006 his 4-3 allowed an average of 15 pts a game.

his 2010 3-4 was better in yardage but allowed an average of 20 a game.

    • Sound write-up MHS, as always.  Agree that the smart move that forward thinking franchises make would be drafting a tackle early, if not for sure in R1, depending on who's there. Based on early predictions we're choosing between Fano and Proctor. No brainer here...Fano all day. Proctor does not move the needle for me. In my mind, Icky has less future here than Brooks does. I love Icky, but he has been average as a top-10 pick, one good year where you saw the potential...and that was this year. He's built like a RT and his strengths are there, but he's always played left. I also feel like part of what has held him back from being elite, was his work ethic. He was known for it coming out, but feel like he fell right at home in Carolina and maybe didn't push himself as hard as he needed to. Throw in a major crucial injury that will take time to recover and a historical low return rate to current form, and the outlook is not great. Fano can play both sides and we need to also plan for Moton's departure. Either way, delaying drafting a tackle early this year will hurt us down the line. Our current OL is overpriced and needs to start adding draftees to start balancing out the inevitable changes coming in the next 2-3 years.  As others have said, maybe Icky can replace Hunt or Lewis in a couple years when he's fully recovered....IDK. Also not a guarantee, but then you have to figure out his contract and it becomes even more clouded.
    • It's past time to just eliminate it in terms of an event. Just do the voting, name the roster, and move on. When you get down to 6th and 7th alternates it's just absurd. It doesn't mean anything.
