    a very bland T2 4-3 that doesn't blitz, relies on pressure from the front 4....it was almost entirely abandoned after the WCO became mainstream because it was a run stopping defense. u need athletic linebackers to run stop and cover the flats, as well as a rangy safety.

    these are all components the browns have none of.....so welcome to several more years of crappy defenses that lose games and give up huge yardage. its a somewhat effective defense when you have talent at the key positions.....if the argument was made that the 3-4 was ineffective because we lacked the personnel, we're in the same xxxxing boat now as before. well, except that all our 3-4 trained players need to learn new jobs....

    so yeah...huge step back in both scheme and personnel.

    thanks for the info, fellas. i heard he had a conservative d, but wasn't sure if that was true. i guess we'll see what happens.
