[QUOTE="Einstein McFly, post: 607826, member: 6663"] Geez, we're reinventing the wheel here? If dlinemen are better pass rushers than your OLBs in a 3-4 it's because you've done a lousy job drafting OLBs, not because you have great dlinemen. Unless you're going to become king of the world and force JJ Watt and Geno Atkins and Suh onto the same team, you're going to want two dlinemen in nickel. If this weren't the case then that's what 32 defensive coordinators would be trying to do all the time. They're not. Beyond that, when it's a really obvious passing situation, you take off even more dlinemen. It works exactly the opposite way of what's being proposed. If your base linemen in a 3-4 can rush the passer like Watt or Justin Smith, say, then that's gravy. But that's not the point of the 3-4. The point of 3-4 is to have run stuffers on the field to set up obvious passing situations and then pin their ears back. It's not to rush the passer on first and second down. [/QUOTE]
