Trevor:
Very interesting stuff on the way the Niners scheme their defense. My question to you would be: "Is this current scheme working?"

I'm not trying to bash the Niners. But you must admit that they get virtually no pressure on other teams QBs. Every single game someone is lighting them up. And those QBs sit back there untouched. If this scheme is to have the Tackles contain and the Ends to passrush, it ain't working at all.

One thing you said really surprised me. You said if stubby and B.Y. shurked their responsibility the defense would suffer. I have to laugh at that. What is the defense ranked right now, 29th? I'd hate to have it drop to 32nd. Although I bet it will if changes aren't coming next year.

Carter is a stud. no arguement there. Young is slowing down. Stubby in no way warrants what he is paid. And I'll say it again: Whatever the defensive plan, Okeafor and E-berg don't get pressure. If this scheme is to work the way you describe, it requires a lot from the defensive ends. Only Carter fits the bill. And he can't do it all alone.
