Imo opinion it makes it easier to get double teams especially w zone blocking. It also is essentially makes it a 5 man box vs a spread team making running lanes easier
I agree with that but I think nothing beats a 4-3 with talented front 4. To be able to get a pass rush with 4 and drop everyone back into coverage is such an advantage. 4-3 has a slightly higher ceiling than 3-4 in my opinion.
@@omieg89 I get what ur saying but the 3-4 allows much more disguise even with a talented front. You have stand up linebackers on the line of scrimmage you can drop back any time to make quarterbacks think differently. You get way more blitz patterns. And you can always migrate to a 4-3 with the stand up LB that plays on the line of scrimmage. 3-4 is all about having hybrid players.
@@ID0XXLook at the greatest defenses in history and most of them were a 4-3 defense or had 4-3 personnel. The Steel Curtain of the 1970’s was a 4-3 defense, the 2002 Bucs and Legion of Boom Seahawks were 4-3 defenses. The 1985 Bears even though they ran a 46 defense had 4-3 personnel (four down lineman and 3 linebackers). I agree with the other guy the 4-3 has a slightly higher ceiling than a 3-4. And you don’t need to disguise anything if your four down linemen are just better than the offense’s linemen.
@@DownfallHitlerParodydisguising blitzes has to be one of the most important aspects of defense, especially simulated pressure. You’re not going to be in a situation very often where you say “oh our d line is better just leave them in their spot all game”. No, you gotta disguise pressure and blitzes and coverages to be a good team
This is high school basics, 3-4 causes the offense to have to make decisions fast. If you haven't practiced against it the offensive lineman will have a nightmare.
There is a shortage of big defensive linemen, particularly for teams out West. The 3-4 makes more sense, especially after hearing Urban. Also, those Okie stand up DEs should afford good edge containment. The whole thing is a function of good safety rotation. Not everyone is going to be Troy Polamalu - but athletic, tough safeties are easier to find than DTs.
Love the insight into the game Urban brings, but if anyone thinks BYU or Cincy actually stand a chance against Alabama or Clemson, you are an absolute joke.
🐻's fan here, we just switched from a 4-3 to a 3-4 defense and I came here wanting to know more about our defensive alignments, schemes, blitz packages and how are pass rushes are going to come now that our whole defensive gameplan has changed with Alan Williams as our DC and Eberflus as our defensive minded HC 🐻👇🏾
This is y this guy,should have been chosen to be somebody's head coach!!,n as an Mississipian,i would love for Coach urban freaky Meyer to became the next coach at Mississippi State University,but,i don't have any say so over that
What I love about urban he puts together a foundation and culture for his teams. No bs and family atmosphere. Take care of business and work hard. He will change the culture which is most important. Tremendous teacher too. Wish dallas went after him.
Have to tailor to your roster. Texas A&M for example. Most talented DL group in country. Terrible linebackers. Yet DJ Durkin runs a 3-4 and it kills them.
Oh, the wonderful irony if Urban replaces either Harbaugh at Michigan or Patricia at Detroit Lions. It won't happen but then again, neither team has won a championship in decades.
Yeah, that secondary needs more help, and they aren't getting as much pressure. A properly trained 3-4 might help solve that. As it is, I still can't understand the coaching in the Indiana game, never going to a double high safety, despite bomb after bomb, and Indiana not being able to run the ball. Seriously, why was there never an adjustment to take one out of the box, and add another safety deep? It was mind numbing. In reality, that game should never have been allowed to get that close.
@@Fish4Man61 I feel like they aren’t going to 3-4 because the recruiting pitch, recruits don’t like to be lied to about what scheme they run just like Texas did to Quinn ewers and Caleb burton
How does he remember these things? I thought he had horrible memory problems and couldn’t remember all those horrible issues he was having with his coaching staff, assistant coach abusing his wife? Well I guess it’s just certain things he can’t recollect

Do you agree with Urban Meyer?
Yeah
Does it matter?
No, 4-2-5 defense better for college
@@Coolbeanpranks I mean in a nickel package it would be at 2-4-5 or 3-3-5 or 5-1-5
somewhat yes

Did he kick you so you post this ??

So how did this work out in Jacksonville ???
Meyers need his own show to break stuff down facts
In Jacksonville
I always thought 4-3 defenses were better to stop the run and 3-4 were better for pass rushing. Great explanation by Meyer.

It depends on the players you have and how you wanna that defense
This is high school basics, 3-4 causes the offense to have to make decisions fast. If you haven't practiced against it the offensive lineman will have a nightmare.
This is who I thought we were getting as a Jags fan. Instead we got a JV HS coach. Mind boggling
As an Ohio state fan I’m sorry. He did good for us.
there more formation u can run under 3-4 like 2- 4-5 or 3-3-5 or 5-1-5

3-4 defense in duuuuuvaaaaal

That is my coach DUUUUUVAL
😂
Boy this didn't age well lol
Ive always been a 4-3 guy, but want to see how the Jags will look with a 3-4
Not very good lol
But nice W vs colts tho
You're a GOAT CFB coach based on how many guys were over drafted from your programs.
why u acting like youre talking to him
🐻's fan here, we just switched from a 4-3 to a 3-4 defense and I came here wanting to know more about our defensive alignments, schemes, blitz packages and how are pass rushes are going to come now that our whole defensive gameplan has changed with Alan Williams as our DC and Eberflus as our defensive minded HC 🐻👇🏾
Eberflus actually runs a 4-3!
Bears fan here too, but we actually switched from 3-4 to 4-3.
Huge bear fan here. We switched from my 3-4 to a 4-3 once we got Eberflus
Cincinnati runs more of a 3-3-5, but Meyer knows that and it really doesn’t change what he says.
Most teams run that or the 4-2-5 anyway bc of the spread offenses
They still recruit around a 3-4 base though. Same can be said for Bama. They run alot of 425 fronts but with 34 and 245 personnel.
3-3-5 is the best it made West Virginia an elite defense.
This is y this guy,should have been chosen to be somebody's head coach!!,n as an Mississipian,i would love for Coach urban freaky Meyer to became the next coach at Mississippi State University,but,i don't have any say so over that
Yeah...but this won't work against a dominant OL that loves to run the ball. You better stack the box and hope for the best.
Urban ran a 3-3-5 defense at Florida and get blow out by Alabama. Why? 3 front can't defend the power run as efficiently as 4-3 front..
Better example is to watch Zaven Collins & the Tulsa defense
What I love about urban he puts together a foundation and culture for his teams. No bs and family atmosphere. Take care of business and work hard. He will change the culture which is most important. Tremendous teacher too. Wish dallas went after him.

Urban Meyer for CEO football operations U.niversity S.outh C.arolina
Foh LMFAO 🤣
@@BennyNegroFromQueens foh? Not familiar
He’s a great coach we’ll see if that translates to the NFL
@@gregfaircloth6440 look it up
@@BennyNegroFromQueens not interested
I DON'T LIKE the 3-4 Defense!
This is y this guy,should have been chosen to be somebody's head coach
I disagree.. Texas is back Joel Klatt?
The Chargers need Urban Meyer.
But Urban Meyer doesn't need the chargers
God Damnit Cowboys....you could’ve had him...
They never had a chance. He was coming home to Jacksonville.
U better have a great middle d line man in a 3-4. Or it blows.
Urban needs to settle down with these breakdowns. Texas fans out here already convince he’s the new lord and savior.
@Alex Laughlin lol I heard everyone in austin is sad 🤣🤣
The talk is great, but them standing on a studio hash without their sport coats looks a tad silly.
Oh, the wonderful irony if Urban replaces either Harbaugh at Michigan or Patricia at Detroit Lions. It won't happen but then again, neither team has won a championship in decades.
Why would he torture himself? He's in a good place.
This is all almost irrelevant in the nfl. Cause teams rarely play base defense
Ohio st should use a 3-4 for this year only
