Yes, MLB would probably be our biggest problem, but you know, Bradie hasn't exactly been excelling at 34 ILB anyway. (And wouldn't it be something if Bradie weren't the MLB?)

Remember how good Bradie James was when he got reps at MLB a few years ago?
Yea, me neither.

nors: "thats desparation move....."

Straight from the lips of the village idgit.

Book it, Bill will toss it out after one drive.

Anyway, you won't see ALs getting much play.

Somewhere Nors head just exploded.

lol. Who is this Nors character? Sounds like someone that occasionally ruffled a few feathers much like me. I try not to ruffle too often though.

for those who care tony casillas is going to talk about this in about two minutes on www.espn1033.com

Can we get him a jersey and a pair of shoulder pads? While he is at it call Jimmy Jones, Leon, Hennings, Maryland, Tolbert, for the record I miss watching Tony Tolbert play. He had that killer facemask, and with Sir Charles on the other end I don't think he got his just due, at least nationally!

Read most of the thread but not all, I'd just like to see what it would be like to have Hatcher and Ware get after the QB all day long, in stead of Ware dropping into coverage.

Switching to a 4-3 defense could make this defense worse. Our LBs are big strong guys built for the 3-4; you can't just switch over to the 4-3 and not get torched. Our LBs are too slow for the 4-3, and our DEs (Ware and Spears) are not built to be 4-3 DEs either. Then again, I'm ready to try anything at this point.

i think the greatest thing that can come out of playing the 4-3 is getting ratliff on the field. the guy makes plays every time he's in there.

well u do know each and every player on this defense is a 4-3 guy right? the only guy who had played 3-4 defense before going to dallas was canty.

so i think that comment means squat

Our LBs (read Bradie James) are too slow for the 3-4...MUCH LESS the 4-3!!!

what does speed have to do with anything? shouldnt u be actually complaining on their tackling? u can have all the speed in the world but if u cant tackle ur useless. thats been their issue, not speed. they've been in posistion to make plays, they just havent made them.

To tackle, you have to get to your target first.

All I'll say, Rich, is that I think our personnel is fitted just fine for the 4-3. Yes, MLB would probably be our biggest problem, but you know, Bradie hasn't exactly been excelling at 34 ILB anyway. (And wouldn't it be something if Bradie weren't the MLB?)

I still say move De-Nightmare94 to the middle:cool:

well then maybe u should be the Hc, because parcells himself has said many times in interviews that dallas is in posistion to make tackles. they just arent making them. i guess all of you couch coaches know more then that man.

hate the guy, but those were his words
