[QUOTE="Jmonty71, post: 261953, member: 2970"] OK. 4-3 / 3-4 / 4-2-5 are all just a defense sets (formations). It's not a scheme. You can run 50 schemes out of each set. You can zone man, run zones, run zone blitzes, run stunts, the list continues. Those are schemes. AKA (playbook). It's not the formation that the defense runs, it's the schemes that are ran out of the formations. I, personally, think that the 4-3 is a sound formation. Yes, for 3-4 to work, you need a few key things. One are D linemen, that know how to play a 2 gap system. The other are some speedy OLB's.
