Looks like we could be playing the pack in the 1st round of the playoffs and we are 0-2 against 3-4 teams this year....8-1 against 4-3 teams....maybe one of the other teams plays a 3-4 that we beat, i cant remember...we also lost a few games last year to 3-4 teams...the steelers and ravens...it is something that is a problem with us...we need to find a way to beat them...dont understand why its a problem. They play against one everyday in practice...but we dont tackle in practice...that could play a part. I think blitz recognition is a problem to our O line. Time to get on it Wade.

I'm not sure it was so much that it was the 3-4 specifically, rather the teams were top 5 defenses at the time the Cowboys played them, so that definitely plays its role.

I think that not having Austin as a starter for the Broncos game was one reason, and the Packers game no one was playing well on that offense.

They went back this year when they ditched Ryan. That's one reason Ellis went there.

That and the mean old coaches weren't trying to take his snaps away from him. :cry2:

Could have sworn they made the switch a few years ago.

Not to mention bringing in Seymour and Ellis
Seymour and Ellis play DE in Oakland

ALSO the cards ran the 3-4 last year, we lost ...like i said pitt and the ravens did also...we were like 2-3 against 3-4 teams last year....0-2 this year...2-5 the past two years...something is up there...

Strange. Why bring in 3-4 players and then run a 4-3?

we also lost to new england the year before..they run a 3-4....we were 2-1 that year against 3-4 teams....i am telling you its crazy when you look at the winning percentage the past 3 years against 3-4 teams as opposed to 4-3 teams...its dramatically different...from what i can see its 4-6 against 3-4 teams...and 26-7 against 4-3 teams....thats a big difference people...who is left in the NFC that is a 3-4 team? the pack....thats it that will probably make the playoffs....do the cards still play the 3-4 ,,,i think they might...well them too....

3-4's are hard on QB's.

Ask Peyton.

They wanted to be a 3-4 under Rob Ryan. I guess it never took hold. Now they're just confused.

We'd be home if we faced them.

Positive we'd do better than we did last time.
