Lol I love the cryptic talk. Fact is even though we run a multiple front under Nolan, he prefers a lot of 34 personnel that can play in 4 man alignments as well. You can look at his past rosters and see that.

Some of these guys are right in that we rarely run a double bubble 34 but most teams don't. I'd venture to say every team runs different fronts at time

Nolan, however has never run a base 43 under. That's a Pete Carroll/ Gus bradly take on mixing 34 elements with kiffens Tampa 2

Plenty of articles on that. Kiffen was Pete carols mentor

I won't pretend to know Nolan ..although I've followed him since the giants. I think he's like most coordinators and concerned with attacking offenses from a variety of schemes

he can do both but if I'm not mistaken, the 3-4 is what he's ran the most. The hybrid has been our 3-4 set since he's been here. He's always had a mixture though, just like every other team.

I'm tired of the 43 under talk

This ain't Nolan's

Nolan isn't part of kiffen and Pete Carroll lineage

Bump until one of those guys frigging post a link clearly stating Nolan runs a 43 under

Here's another link I found that ascribes the 43 under to Bradley and Carroll..note no Nolan

Yup, it was clear from day one of FA that we will be a base of 3-4 with a hybrid defense.

people complain about running a 3-4 yet I am willing to bet that we will be able to do more with our linebackers than we do while running 4-3. Effective play up front opens lanes for the middle linebackers, worrilow and spoon (assuming). But I know nothing about that type of ish. And to those who say we have no stand up rushers, that's another lie. We have at least 3 on the roster at this very moment

Good point. Not too mention one benefit of 34 is you can find a "lesser" 43 college end and plug him in and be a star. Countless numbers of not elite college DEs becoming studs in 34..James Harrison comes to mind

yep. That's why guys like mass and kroy aren't that successful as a 4-3 DE. Kroys best season came as a hybrid rusher. Mass was scouted as a top 3-4 OLB.

Injuries or not, Demarcus ware suffered as a 4-3 DE

It's also why teams like steelers and pats invested a lot of money in interior DL..similar to what were doing
