Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 715633">3-4 OLBs don't drop in coverage much, but only particularly in Capers' 3-4.Capers likes to run his zone blitz a couple times a game against certain QBs where he blitzes on one side and drops an OLB or even a lineman into that QB's standard-issue short passing lane check down looking for a cheap INT.Sometimes they'll drop in a match-up situation.  You just don't see it very often.  Coverage responsibility falls to the ILBs 90 - 95% of the time.4-3 OLBs are a different matter.3-4 OLBs are stand-up DEs, especially in the world according to Capers, with a bit of scheme flexibility, but that's about it.Now if you're wanting to see something on the order of a hybrid defense instead of the Capers "abortion" as you call it, then you'll need to wait at least another year and the complaint becomes academic.</blockquote>
