[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 867374, member: 12283"] That's a silly comparison. 3-4 OLB's are designated "edge" because they spend the vast majority of their time playing the run or rushing the passer on the edge. It's a label that seeks to match what they spend the majority of their time doing. That is not at all analogous to the reality that defensive backs blitz sometimes and that running backs can be split out. Those are a handful of snaps compared to the norm for the majority of defensive backs and running backs. You can continue calling them whatever you like. It makes no difference to me. But you will probably continue to be confused, thinking that 230 lb off-ball linebackers are targets for the Packers to rush the passer on the outside. [/QUOTE]
