    If Holmgren does start making this his team in a truer sense... do we go to a 4-3? Would that make Shaun Rogers more sensible alongside Rubin? Could Matt Roth be a prototypical 4-3 DE, a Jared Allen or Aaron Kampmann? Fujita and Gocong have both played in a 4-3 and a lot of people think Jackson should.

    Wonder how much work we'd have to do to make our front 7 work?

      nice.

      take the 1 and ONLY thing (sides hillis) on your team that is up to a professional NFL team's standards and change it.

      what's in the water you guys drink?

      with all i've heard about Big Ben being a rapist and i go to a online sex offender registry and look up cleveland and Pittsburgh and what do i find? cleveland has a CRAP load more sex offenders (and expecially child molesters) than Pittsburgh.......over 4X as many over all. 2055 of them to Pittsburgh's 421. www.familywatchdog.us better never hear one of you date raping, can't get a woman with my tiny peep unless i hold her down, child molesting hypocrits say anything else about Ben.

        I truly think the 4-3 in the NFL is a dinosaur. You'll see teams gradually move away from it because most of the top defense are running the 3-4 and there are more players that translate to 3-4 outside LB's in the draft than guys that make true defensive ends in the NFL.

        Pass rushing defensive ends that is.

        AKA SNATCH98 or Rorbotron. The boards glorious admins decided to get cute and change my name to "homotron" Classy group of people. (Lost a bet with Columbus king and got banned for a month)

          We've spent the last 6 years getting 3-4 players and now you want to change it all once it finally started working. Congrats shep, you are officially the dumbest fan.

            The fact is, Holmgren is an offensive guy. He bascially leaves the defense to someone else. He is not going to dictate a change from the 3-4 to the 4-3 just to "make the Browns in his image". His image is as an offensive coach.

            They might bring in a West Coast offensive coordinator, but not a 4-3 specialist per se.

              Hell, I have seen times when some teams, the Browns included had 1 defensive lineman on the field and like 6 LBs!
