The other issue with the 3-4 is if you run man you most likely have a pass rusher on a HB or TE which is a bad match up to start with.
As has been pointed out most of the defenses people think of when they think of the best ever weren't 3-4 defenses.
Yep...plus teams are running hybrid 3-4/4-3 combos.
IF we had better pass rushing LB's...that would be a possibility here...but we're probably 3 players away from even considering that.
