plan against Toledo was to stop the run so he put 4 on the line for some of the game. But naturally he got scared and pulled back. Tuiaki is a joke.

I can agree with that assessment

Don't let facts get in the way of a good CB tantrum.

Just for those first 5 plays, list the numbers of the guys you saw on the line

It was pretty consistent for all the plays

He went with the 3-man front more often in earlier games for obvious reasons

You counted based on a single quarter of one game? Amazing analysis!

Are you sure the 4th defender was a DL?

↑ This. Plus the run recognition by the LBs was terrible.

This is exactly the question. The 4th person is a kb. And mostly smaller than dl

So it’s not so much the 3 man that is the issue for you?
