"Mike McCarthy: “The defensive system is going to change, some of the terminology, so there’s gonna be a big change there. The special teams is another change. The offense was the one I wanted to build off what’s been established.""

I don't see why he would take any other approach

@Rayman70 Bro, are you reading this? McCarthy just stated our D will stay with a 4 man front, in other words, a 4-3 defense. I'm sure we will add some elements of a 3-4 or 5-2 front, but overall, it will remain a 4 man front.

One thing that is being said that will change is bringing in much bigger DTs, which is what we have been asking for years since Marinelli was against and hurt us badly.

Just me, but if you look at the huge emphasis he placed on interceptions with the Packers, I'm thinking the #1 priority of his D will be stopping the run and forcing teams to pass 30+ times a game. This, of course, creates more opportunities for interceptions. So my guess, we'll see a huge change in our interior DLmen responsibility. Changes that have them focused on stopping the run, not worrying about sacks like under Marinelli. In other words, it wouldn't surprise me to see them go after the big 325+lb space-eating DT. If you think about this makes sense since our division has TWO young QBs ( Giants and Skins) who DO NOT wanna throw the ball 30+ times a game. Imagine playing the Giants and/or Skins and stopping their running game cold, forcing 30+ throws. Chances of turnover increase significantly ........
