Message: [QUOTE="sufandu, post: 3073102, member: 874"] I'm not a coach, so people can correct me if I'm wrong, but losing one of your big lineman would make it harder to run a 3-3-5, wouldn't it? Usually using 3 down lineman means they all have to be bigger so they can eat up O lineman and allow the back 8 the freedom to make all of the tackles. Our DE's are too small except for situational use of a formation like that, which I think we already did on passing downs. Hopefully, the backup DT's are good enough to hold their ground in relief of the starters. They don't have to make plays. They just have to keep from getting blown up and let the LB's run clean.
