Quote:Yeah, but how often does an NFL Offense even run 21 or 22? I could have sworn that I read where Offenses now run 11 or 10 most of the time. It's why the FB is pretty much a non-factor nowadays.

 

I think the base set up is to go with three down linemen, one Safety (ostensibly Gipson), three to four corners and have the rest be LBs. This way, if you have Fowler fill a LB role, then you can have him target specific linemen matchups that he can win against.

 

The only thing with 3 down lineman is which 3 are the best 3 that you go with and I only planned on blitzing one LB and that was Fowler so Jack and Telvin would be in coverage.  Jack on the TE and Telvin on the RB and with 3 corners and one safety that takes care of at least 3 WR.  If an extra TE is brought on then Gipson can cover the TE and keep Telvin on the RB.  With 4 lineman creating pressure and fowler used as a free LB then Man Coverage is not a bad idea if the package creates almost immediate pressure.  With no one being able to get doubled I think it would definitely be worth a shot and probably would be successful if not overused.

 

Edit I like what your saying I just would rather use 3 corners and one safety instead of 4 corners.
