DOLPHINS: TMQ on Ginn

[Mark L. Diana]

No, not really. In the end, it's still a matter of matching up O-guys  
to block D-guys. The 3-4 just puts the D-guys in different places, but  
you still need to match up with them. I just have never seen any  
convincing evidence that either scheme is superior, only that some  
teams are good at defense and some aren't, regardless of the scheme.
