Also, like I said if that is really their job, 90% of nfl DEs aren't doing it right.
I'm assuming that website is wrong on that aspect, I'm sure if you asked bum Philips, we would confirm that his DEs were designed to occupy the blockers
It really depends on your definition of "occupy". A 1 gap player regardless of a 3 or 4 man front, isnt going to just occupy a blocker. That's common in a 2 gap D like the Pats ran in there 3-4. Warren Sapp is your classic 1 gap interior rusher. He played the 3 tech in Tampa but could play the 5 in a 30 front. They need to get up field and disrupt. Disrupt the rushing lanes and get to the passer. If you're a 1 gap player and you're just occupying a blocker you're not going to have a job for long.

Please point this out. Other than gart and dpride who are both trolling this thread, no one has come close to agreeing with you. And point of fact, they have both aggressively recruited my CBs to play in WL in the past. Their actions speak louder than words. They both like my CBs even if they want to try and troll in this thread by saying otherwise.
