The idea that a 4-3 is a better run defense is false. 3-4s are normally better against the run. 3-4 linemen are larger and on running plays, it becomes a de facto 5-2 defense.
When did we get gashed the worst yesterday? When we were in nickel with only 6 in the box. The Lions "force" that defense by coming out in passing situations.
Even if we were a 4-3 team, we'd probably line up with exactly the same personnel in exactly the same spots with our current roster--2 of Perry, Neal, Matthews, or Mulumba at the outside rush positions, Daniels and Datone at tackle, Hawk and Jones in linebacker.
What did your switch to the 4-3 actually accomplish? Probably nothing. People who advocate wholesale changes like this strike me as people just lashing out at whatever they don't understand.
