Where in the video was 3 TEs ever mentioned? I saw it said here, but I it wasn't ever said the video... in fact only place I hear offensive personnel mentioned, LaFleaur says Steelers are a big 11 personal which is only 1 TE, not 3 TEs.
82 year old women still lives in pre-2010 football, before those CBA rule changes, that changed the game.
LaFleaur knows exactly what he was talking about in modern football.
Nickel Defense are 4-2 defense with 4 down linemen, on all 32 teams across the league.
3-4 OLBers and 4-3 DE in the modern game are the almost the same exact roles, 3-4 OLBers MIGHT drop into coverage a bit more, depending on which version of the 3-4 it is.
The 3-4 Defense with the lighter OLBers and the totally two gapping up front got phased out with the 2010 CBA practice rule changes.
In the 3-4 DE one gap, which is still around, the OLBers needed to be heavier and the Packers OLBers are.
Those massive LDEs that were mainly to defend the run... they're not even a quarter as popular as they used to be and if they're good enough they're still around, but usually only as backups.
