why is everybody giving up on Doms physco package haha. Remember how well that worked here?? That didn't stop anybody just like the pkg he throws on the field with two freakin down linemen and 6 db's.
We played a 5-2 in high school in the 60s, sometimes a 6-2. Of course, nobody passed the ball back then and it worked. I think Dom knows defense, and I suspect he puts some thinking into his schemes--maybe even more time than Frank does (and Frank has spent quite a bit of time on it). If the players (new or old) play his schemes as designed we'll be just fine.
This, this right flocking here, the defense does not need a radical change, they need to stop playing this idiotic defense and start playing a 3-4. This 2-4-5 defense is flocking horrendous.
This is incredibly short sighted. We play 2-4-5 because that's our nickel defense. We play nickel so much because we face 3-receivver sets a lot. To suggest that we should play base defense against a 3-receiver sets (regularly, anyway) is borderline retarded.
EVERY team does something similar when they play nickel. You pull a run defender and swap your around your front to get your best pass rushers into the game.
In our nickel scheme/roster make up, our OLBs are equivalent to 4-3 pass-rushing specialists that come into the game for nickel.
