He said it was a challenge to coach against the 3-4 also.
Plus, we did spend 4 years gathering 3-4 personnel. While most of the guys did play 4-3 in college, why have to revamp the entire D again?
The 3-4 scheme is not the problem. Our inability to gather a full defensive roster was. We never built a secondary and our D-line has looked good in Week 1 on paper but we never had the depth to survive a whole season on the line. The only solid part of the defense were the linebackers and now we have to replace Fletcher.
Keep the 3-4 and plug the holes. I really think Haslett could do at least an acceptable if not great job if he actually had players on the field. When Reed Doughty has been one of the keys to our defense for a few years, that's a bad situation.
Yeah 34 or 43 doesn't matter if you don't have the talent to begin with. Never understood why folks get so hung up on that. For years it seems all we heard was why don't we switch to the 34, we finally do and everyone wants to switch back now.
