4-3 vs. 3-4
Why is the 4-3 defense almost exclusively used in the NFL these days?
I remember when the 3-4 was used more. Did some fundemental offensive idea change, which forced the defense to change?
It would seem to me, with the right personel, that a 3-4 defense would allow you to be much more flexible, and throw many more different looks at an offense, considering the fact that you are replacing a huge lineman, with a quicker guy who can cover or blitz on any given play.
