That is cool that some people love using buzz words and coach speak about gap this and technique that. I'm not being sarcastic, but quite frankly what I care about is inside DL or playing on the end of the DL. IMO, the use of terms has gotten way overused. Now, the new DC has come up with "star" as a new football word. Football is tackling and blocking along the LOS...that is it.

The bottom line in general: Interior DL are bigger, slower, and are more efficient at stopping the run and less of a pass rusher. Outside DL (EDGE, DE, whatever) are lighter, faster, and are supposed to contain and rush the passer more.

Here's the problem with this.....

Playing the 4i and playing the shade aren't even in the same galaxy. Coach Kelly said clear as day that he's playing the 4 meaning he is playing SDE in an ODD front and will likely have a jack backer standing up outside of him so he's not technically an "edge" but he's not playing the shade taking on double teams. Just because you don't understand the smaller details of the game doesn't mean people have to ignore them so you can feel better.
