I would imagine that when the blitz is so successful, that the oline begins to looks for it even when we bring 4.  Would you say this leads to a lot of one on one blocking, in which case the advantage goes to the D?

Chalk Talk / Re: Question about Getting Inside Pressure

Thanks Otto and MG for your insights. 

My understanding of the modern day 3-4 defense is pretty basic and I was just interested to know how much such defenses have to commit in order to get inside push consistently.  Having grown up watching Parcells' Giants I have always been a big fan of the 4 Linebacker set.  But I have really come to appreciate  the 4-3 defense which is so well balanced.   Of course, it helps immensely to have a guy like Tuck inside.

Chalk Talk / Question about Getting Inside Pressure
February 11, 2008, 06:53:58 PM
I was over on the Charger forum and many of them are envious of the inside push the Giants are able to get with the front 4. 

My question is:

Is it possible to get inside push in a 3-4 defense without blitzing inside backers?  I put this on the x's and o's forum because I'm not entirely sure where the 3-4 ends line up and I'm assuming the NT is not a pass rusher.

The Giants LB corps was what the Saints aspired to be. This really irritates me that they are ahead of the Giants.
