If you think about how disruptive interior pressure is it makes sense. Pressure the guards and left tackle and have your best run player over right tackle where many team's best run blocker is. Hatcher can do that. Ratliff can do it if he is here.

BTW, their SAM is lining up like Spencer did most times against 2 te-hbacks on the same side.

If don't have any players capable of 2-gapping as a 5-tech, what the hell have we been doing running a 3-4 for the past 7 years?

I don't necessarily think that Kiffen meant we are going to be Seattle.

I think he was just instructing them to get an idea of what their roles might entail. Additionally\, if you listen to him talk about playing fast or whatever he's probably referring to how Seattle looks from snap to whistle, not so much where guys specifically line up.
