How the transition to the 3-4


Spain

Recommended Posts

How the hell are we going to keep 3 NT on the team this year, while were still running the 4-3, S Adams and Pekos are locks, Someone doesnt have a roster spot , because we can trun the 3-4 till next year. S Smith is a damn good player I hate to seem him go because of bad timing. But the transition will cost us a good player. Im thinking the guy with the short straw is SSmith? :blink:

Don't think the 3-4 is going to happen, but I'll still share my input.

I don't think Shaun Smith would make a very good NT in the 3-4... I think his poor stamina problem would shine brighter in the 3-4 than it has in the 4-3. Adams would probably be fine, but he'd carry the same question marks that he already does... Does he have enough left in the tank?

Peko is a rookie, so who knows... But I have pretty big expectations for him.

*opens the door to this thread*

*staggers back as a loud of hazy and odd-smelling smoke billows out*

*hastily re-shuts the door and staggers away*

*following an hour log recovery, heads over to the Bengals.com website where the following is written*

"A lot depends on how much 3-4 they are going to play out of the 4-3 base. They like to switch it up as well as rely heavily on their backers for special teams, so the tea leaves suggest seven backers."

*wonders how much crack one must smoke before that line can be reasonably reinterpreted into "we're going to a base 3-4 defense*

I hate the 3-4 , I would rather try to revive the Bear D than go with the 3-4.

If any of you remember the 3-4 is what we just ran under Dick Lebeau (the master of the 3-4) and we ended up geting #1 overall draft picks.

Even when we ran the 3-4 in the 80's the D was the weakness of the team.

I think it is time to stop playing with the idea.

Yes, its good to have the ability to go to a 3-4 to stop what the opponent is doing or confuse them but, I dont want to go back to the days of the 3-4 ,I remember how many big plays it gave up.

We're not going to the 3-4 yet. Marvin wants to I think... but we don't have all the pieces in place yet. We still don't have a true NT... and we are at least one LB short for 4 games this season.

Anyway... I think Askew might have found his way off the team with the latest incident. He was already going to have a rough time making the squad with our DT's. He might have just made the coaching decision that much easier.
