Baltimore runs more of a hybrid like Okeana mentioned and they are successful at it and have been since Ray Lewis. Granted, we have historically owned them, so having the right captains on the field and the right coaches as well are key. Problem with running a hybrid is if you don't have the right guys, it doesn't work. Plus side is it makes an OC crazy because it's harder to gameplan against a defense. 

The best "true" explanation of using a 2-gap technique in a 403, is tough to find.  This guy does a pretty good job of explaining it, in his blog post from August of 2015.  But honestly, I don't think that it's anything that the Bengals haven't already done at various points in time throughout the years.  Like I said, it's pretty situational.
