We've now all heard the rumors and some confirmed visual evidence of some switching to more of a "1-gap" defensive line front. My question for the board is, do you feel this shift is a philosophy change (beaten to death I know) or will it be more situational? (i.e. only on 3rd and long) Is the change in gap responsibility coming from a 3-4 look or a 4-3, or is it still the hybrid 3-4 plus Jack look?
Also, for those that know these kinds of things - how does the shift to a 1-gap defensive front change the responsibilities of the back 7, if at all?
