Married to the 3-4, anybody know a good divorce lawyer?

It seems as though our defense always lets us down when the game is on the line.

What are the chances we switch back to a 4-3 with a new coach?


Remember, the 3-4 is why we hired Wade. It was his area of specialty.

So far the 3-4 hasn't really grown on me.

Your thoughts?

yea the 3-4 is the reason Newman got yanked, and marshall caught a TD, yea its also the reason our Offense/ WR's cant get the ball moving or get open

we should have been up by 14+...our D did its job

we are married to these long developing timing routes, that our WR's arent built for, we have slow, possession WR's and inexperienced ones, we need to try a West coast type O maybe

There's no defensive alignment that can mask poor player execution, and execution is ensured through responsibility and accountability.

Unfortunately, the Cowboys organization is conducive to neither.

Yeah...the 3-4 sucks, the Broncos 3-4 defense looked just as bad.

Our defense was money for the most part, it was the darn offense that was held scoreless in the 2nd half, by a 3-4 defense nonetheless.

Give me a break.

DL - Spencer : Spears : Rat : Ware
LB - James : Brooking : Carp/Williams
Safety - Same
Corners - Same

Lets see....The defense let the Giants get in position for game winning field goal. All they needed was a stop, and we win the game.

Yesterday, the defense gave up the lead with 2:00 to go. A stop and we have at worst overtime.

So yeah, I think it is an honest question to ask.


I'm not saying that the defense is not playing well at times, it's just, when we have to have a stop, it seems like it comes up short.

Hey don't attack me, I just wondered, what has the 3-4 really accomplished for us?

Were they in their base 3-4 in the final drives of either of those games? Or were they in their nickel packages? If they were in their nickel packages then it does not matter if they ran a base 3-4 or a base 4-3. The nickel is the nickel.
