Why Miami’s Run Game Suffers vs. The 3-4 Defense
I am going to preface this article with: A) The fact that the 3-4 Defense, is a more effective counter to the Zone Blocking Scheme than the 4-3 Defense. B) The rise of the Zone Blocking Scheme in the NFL is what permeated the rise of the 3-4 defense in the NFL. C) This is, in part, is why Miami struggles to run the ball vs. a 3-4 front. The Jets are a perfect example. and... D) The largest reason they struggle is because of their prized Center.
Pouncey loses to Nose Tackles... almost all of them.
