System to fit the players 


As coach Mike McCarthy and defensive coordinator Dom Capers lead the transition to a vastly different defense from the one played for a long time in Green Bay, the focus won't be on fitting players into the scheme but rather fitting the scheme to the players.




Capers said the biggest mistake he can do was try to fit players he has into a rigid form of the scheme.

He pointed to the current Steelers defense as an example of how certain body types that arent considered ideal for the 3-4 can be used effectively.

"They come in all different sizes and shapes," Capers said. "You make a mistake if you just say youre not going to have any that are under this size. You look at (linebacker) James Harrison. Hes not a real tall guy a

I think through mini-camps, Capers is going to get a pretty good idea how to best use the guys on the current roster and our upcoming draft picks.

Very doubtful we'll always be using a 3-4 base defense, so the guys who are still better suited for a 4-3 can still be used to their strengths when we use a hybrid system.

I think most of the players are better suited for 3-4 anyways other than maybe Kampman which he might be able to play great ether way....

Or at least better suited for a 3-4 than what the system they were running last year....... Only real question for me is do they have enough good DL... to run the 3-4.......

How is this any different than what he said upon being hired.. notta, and they are still talking about moving Kampman to OLB... so the desired alignment is known.

So, putting 2 and 2 together means that how they play the 3-4 will be dependent upon personnel.. one gap, two gap, stacked, off, etc...

Might want to check telling people to STUF, and looking past the text of the article.

Some players will have limited places to play in this defense, so I see no problem discussing such a topic.

Personally I dislike the topic title...

I like the opinion, although as a operator of a website predicated on discussion, I think until we see player X in the 3 - 4 we should be open minded and its fair game for discussion.


Honestly, I'd rather hear about how player x is not going to do this in the 3 - 4 vs our hot topic of last year, if you know what I mean. Gosh, at least this has relevance to the Packers upcoming season!

Awww geez guys, chill out a bit. I believe Longtime was just saying something like "quit freaking out and thinking we don't have a single player that can play a single position in the 3-4." I don't think he was telling anyone to actually STFU and NEVER discuss anything about the change again. Yes, it is the same thing Dom said initially, but he was just re-instating it because let's face it, some of us are right back in the off-season freak out mode.

Man, some people are so cyber-sensitive!!

Actually, I am the last one to get over sensitive about a post or opinion.

However it could be worded a hell of a lot more effectively. That is all.
