In my opinion that makes us more vulnerable against the Giants and Brandon Jacobs who have basically owned our asses for the past decade. On the flip side we should be more competative defensively against Philly and Dallas with that defense, but I thought that we were already pretty good against those guys. I don't know maybe I'm still depressed about the last ten years but the defense wasn't as broke as the offense last year so I don't understand the need to change everything. Of course if we start winning it will change my mindset completely. Until then I am skeptical about the change of defensive scheme.
Unless we could be fortunate enough to land a player like Vince Wilfork who could be available and is a true NT. That's the major position for concern when thinking of the switch to a 3-4. Not convinced Haynesworth could be counted on to play the position. Changing both the offense and the defense is going to be a team in transition at least for a while until all the various principle's have been throughly adopted.
