4-2-5 nickel is the only way to play modern football.

IDK its a pretty interesting argument

Edited:People forget that we had a very good defense in 2018, because the last two games just blow out the statistics.

I actualyl ment 2018 when I said last year. I think the 2019 issues were more jsut executing than the scheme

but through 11 games last year we had a top 10 defense. 7 OTs on a case defense and losing half out players mucked up the end of the year.

I like the 4-2-5. Fast atheletes we seem to be able to recruit well. The key to me is the 2 guys in the middle and that niclel back. Brooks is a guy that would fit that mold and there are plenty Brooks' out there. Having 2 linebackers that are big and fast also makes it work. I never did like the 3-4. Not enough pressure on qb and when you blitz you don't have much in the middle for draw or delayed handoffs.
