Base defense is switching back to the 4-3 with Wanny in charge. No surprise there.
Typical quote from Chan: "If you look around the league today people are playing four-man fronts and three-man fronts, they're playing a little bit of everything," Gailey said. "We're going to try and put our guys in position to be successful, whatever that position might be. If it's odd spacing sometimes or even spacing sometimes."
I wish the Bills would stop looking around the league at start looking at their own roster a little closer. The move to the 3-4 was poorly concieved and poorly executed. It caused us to reach for Troup and Carrington when there were better players on the draft board.
Finally, it sounds like Chan is getting what many already knew: "[A], I think that we want to utilize our personnel to the best and we feel like this will allow us to do that," Gailey said. "B, Dave is very knowledgeable in this defense and he's the guy we wanted doing the job and that's another reason we're doing it. And, C, it's easier to find people. It's tougher to find people in the true 3-4 in a lot of ways. It makes it a little bit easier to find people from time to time to run a four-man front than a three-man front. It gets extremely hard to find those outside 'backers year in and year out. It gets tougher and tougher."
The wheels have been spinning for over a decade. It won't matter what scheme they play, they need to upgrade the talent and the coaching to win.
Oopppps. I see someone posted this already. Sorry Mods, its early.
