[QUOTE="wist43, post: 554777, member: 9839"] I say I want to get away from the 2-4 b/c 1) teams run like crazy against us when we're in it - b/c Capers runs it in run/pass situations, i.e. 1st and 10, 2nd and 6, and 3rd and 3. Those are either/or down/distances. Depending on the opponent, more often than not, regardless of what personnel the offense trots on the field, you can handle those down/distances out of base. 3WR's, 1 TE, 1 RB - yes, your base should be able to match up with that no problem. I went back and looked at the 2nd Detroit game the other day - they had 1st and goal at the 1, and had 3 WR's, 1 TE, and 1 RB on the field; we were in the 2-4!!! From the 1 stinking yd line, lol... Bush walked in untouched. The same thing happened against Chicago in the playoff game, Forte walked in untouched. I say I would only run the 2-4 in obvious passing situations, and give you an alignment, and the first comeback you all have is - "teams will run against us"?? That's my #1 complaint against the alignment to begin with - regardless of whether we're in the "fat-guy 2-4", or a "pass rush 2-4". Can't have it both ways guys... you're the ones advocated the 2-4. 2) The fat-guy 2-4. To deal with the run/pass situations - if it's a pass, your 2 inside run stuffers aren't going to generate any pass rush... they're just going to do the 'dancing bear tango with the C and 2 G's - which is what we saw all of last year. If it is a run/pass situation, the 3-3 would be much more effective at dealing with the potential of either the run or the pass b/c you have more overall size on the field, and you have pass rushers. 3) It is permissible to both blitz and play zone.
