    Our defense still plays relatively well in the 3-4 but Jeremy Chinn is useless in it. Is our current personnel better suited to 3-4 or vice verse.

    To me, Chinn is only going to thrive in a 3-3-5 as that Robber Safety or Star as we call in our defense. That guy is sometimes a Blitzer, sometimes replacing a blitzing backer or he's just a free running spill player.

    He's NOT a LB, nor does he have the skill set to play a true safety...yet. so he doesn't really fit a 4-3 or a 3-4, IMO

    3-4, no question.


    Chinn was a better fit in Snow's scheme but he's never actually been as good as people think. His current role as gadget player/backup at multiple spots/special teamer is probably where he belongs. He's the epitome of Jack of all master of none.
