Every Play Counts: Nick Saban’s Front Seven

[Ross]

Link to story

"Nick Saban has a reputation as a defensive mastermind, and when he took the job as the head coach of the Miami Dolphins, we heard throughout the off-season that he would change Miami’s defense, using a sophisticated hybrid of the 4-3 and the 3-4. But as I watched the Dolphins front seven on every play of their 17-10 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, I found that it’s not the scheme that works for Saban, it’s the execution."

Check out the comments below the long article. Some of them are right decent...

a good. read. i was surprised how low he was on carter. he has been playing very well this year, imo.

i do agree with him though, on roth not being a LB

Yeah I thought it was a great write up too even though I didn't agree with everything he said either...

Matt Roth weighs 272 right now. If he could put on 10 or 20 more pounds, I could see him developing as a DT. He seems like a tough, young guy that may be valuable in the middle against the run. I just don't see him as a DE in the NFL.
