Will Miami Play Much 3-4 This Year?

A Bear front w/ Starks, Odrick, & Mitchell covering the Center and Guards would be intriguing.

With Jordan/Wake as OLB's and Misi/Ellerbe as ILB's, it could function like the 3-4 (5-2) Wade Phillips used w/ the Texans IMO.

Do we have the corners and safety help to match that lineup or would we be playing cover 3 or off man with that? I just feel like we don't have good press corners and now less speed at safety to make the Bear work; hopefully Aikens develops fast. I wish we could do GB's Psycho defense, we seem to have a lot of DE/LB tweeners to where they wouldn't have a clue who's rushing or dropping back in coverage.

I think thats actually called the Eagle 5-2.

We will definitely play some hybrid, but the idea of an absolute 3-4 and 4-3 is a thing of the past imo. I'm much more interested in where these players go after the snap, as opposed to where they line up.
