Defense Scheme

Recommended Posts

I am sorry if this was posted anywhere else already, but do we plan to stick with some form of a 3-4 defense or do we move back to 4-3. Prior to Luke retiring, I really wanted to go back to 4-3 because he leads the defense and he is better suited there, but now I am on board with working a 3-4 if we get the right pieces. 

In any event, does anyone know what the plan is moving forward?

On the Missed Opportunities podcast they had Cody Alexander on there and he was the defensive GA for Baylor under Snow. He was talking about what they ran when he was there and what to expect with Snow, so he was thinking we’d have a sort of 3 down hybrid and run a lot of single high. It’s a great listen bc before Cody Alexander is Seth Galina who talks about Joe Brady and what to expect with his offense. Seth covers the Saints and LSU. S/O Billy Marshall with the Missed Opportunities podcast.

I don't think we'll have an idea of the defense until we see the draft. The young group of defensive ends (Burns, Miller, Haynes) seems promising. I'd like to believe they'll run a 4-2-5 base with the defensive ends being put in the best position to succeed and getting as many reps as possible.

Panthers are probably gonna suck next year. Might as well get the most out of sucking.

No clue.  I don't think you will get any idea until training camp.

Pretty much this. From the way Rhule and his team does things I think they look to see what we've got and build the system around them. 

Lots of personnel activity going to be going on between now and then.

If that's the case it would be silly to move back to the 4-3. We have 3 really promising 3-4 rush ends.

    • Man whether it's the Panthers or the Hornets it's crazy how many foolish talking heads there are in the local media. I just unsubscribed from locked on Hornets. Doug Branson with his cheesy mustache is an absolute clown especially when his partner isn't on. Talking about trading LaMelo because he can't win basketball games by himself with no semblance whatsoever of a legitimate Center. These YouTube personalities will say anything for a damn click.
    • I’m hoping for that exact same scenario, two seconds would be big for us. I’d hope for 3 impact players. A WR/DL/DE that can contribute like this current class would be key to our rebuild.
    • When I look at what I can find, a carryover problem from last season is our receivers are still unable to get enough separation on a consistent basis. Canales is certainly better at scheming them open, like how he sneaked out Thielen for a big play. But then he's also having Thielen running routes he frankly shouldn't be doing anymore. I feel part of the RZ issues is not really having anyone - after trading Diontae - who can make those quick cuts on a short field to give whoever is under center a wider window to throw. We also only have one guy with blazing speed in Thompkins and from what I could see, he's really used more to draw away coverage. I bring this all up because what Canales needs for sustained success - other than QB - is the other receiver pieces we'll be getting in the offseason.  Otherwise, I have to say that Canales isn't as afraid to be aggressive offensively. As others mentioned, still doesn't run the ball enough at times. Finally, I still feel his playcalls still doesn't line up with his mantra of getting rid of the ball within x amount of seconds. Maybe I count too slow. Oh, and I'm glad Canales first game after a bye looked good. I feared he'd be like Ron Rivera where we would fall flat on our faces.
