I freaking love the 3-4. It's just my kind of defense. That said, we've gotten out asses kicked by injuries and need more talent up-front. We can make this work though.

And maybe that's why Matthews is getting hurt more and as people have said, playing worse... because he's an 3-4 OLB playing 4-2 DE.

Fans have complained about defense 4-3 players. .. but there is a reason... because the Packers are a 4-2 team.

That's on Dom, though. He WANTS those guys, so he can shift them around without substituting.
