Before some of the "Almighty TSW Police" start b*tching, I know that we have already talked about this a few times regarding Cotrell.

 

However, after watching the NFL live team breakdown the Steelers defense and the pieces needed to be a successful 3-4 I thought a lot more about it.

 

Needs:

1 Lane clogging Nose Tackle. Check - Big Sam

1 Run stuffing Safety. Check - Though he may have slipped agianst the pass, Lawyer is still solid against the run.

4 Fast Roaming LBs (especially on the outside). - Takeo (if he returns to form. London makes plays. Crowell has really proven himself. Posey, see below.

Pressure from the edge. Check - Schobel is obviously a solid pass rusher. Posey was great as an end in Houston's 4-3.

 

Looks like the team is one inside LB away from having a solid 3-4 defense.

What I would have liked to have seen is:

1.) experience as a DC, and

2.) any defensive scheme that could consistently stop the run,

3.) any defensive scheme that could consistently defend the pass.

 

 

What diff does it make if it is 4-3, 3-4, 2-5, 5-2, 3-3, 2-1-2, man on man, 3-2, a spy, full court press, half court press, just as long as it isn't the prevent-you-from-winning defense.
