O.K. I know the 3-4 is a staple in this defense but if our current ILB position is the way it is starting the season with very little depth and experience ,if the starting inside guys get hurt for any length of time like Bruschi,Seau (if he comes back) or whoever fills the position, could you see BB cleverly turning this D into a 4-3 scheme?
Come on now what would make a better defensive front for us - Jarvis Green,Richard Seymour,Ty Warren and Vince Wilfork up front with 3 LBs in back or would you rather have the normal front regular 3 (Seymour,Warren,Wilfork) with Izzo,Mays,Alexander ect: guarding one of the spots on the inside/middle of the D?
If there was an injury or 2 to the ILB area and there is a choice of having to go to a 4-3 and put Green on the front line or putting Izzo (right now is Bruschis replacement) or Mays or Alexander I think its a no brainer- you go to a 4-3 and use Green,arguably the best backup DE in this league.
Agree or not - With the ILB core the way it is,if an injury does occur to mainly Bruschi who is the most important player in that position,I certainly think its possible the NE D becomes a temporary 4-3 in 2007.
