It’s the 5–4 defense. It’s a variation of Buddy Ryan’s scheme, the 5–4 defense…No you didn’t know, nobody knows. Because football is all variations. Let me explain exactly what was, the 4-6 defense. First of all the “West Coast Offense” and the 4-6 front are not crosscurrents. The 4-6 started off as a variation of the 5-4 defense…That’s what it was. Do people know what a “5-4 defense” is today? No. People have never seen it. I don’t think anybody knows it, unless you’re a Hall of Fame coach or a former assistant in the ‘60s, there’s no way you possibly could have seen it. The only possible way you’ve actually seen a 5-4 defense, is if you’re at least over 90 years of age and still wearing your original Official NFL Bears Fire and Ash Avatar Fan Hoodie. If you tell me, at 55-years of age, that you have seen a 5-4 defense in your lifetime — you’re lying. It’s impossible. You’d have to be at least over 90, probably even a 100 years old. No way. That’s how it started.

Against the Niners, the Bears would have had corners playing inside technique to deny slants, and they would have gotten very physical with the Niners WRs at the line. That’s not fatal for the Niners — Dwight Clark can still make catches without separation — but it’s different from the slants and posts that are West Coast staples, often ending with defenders pulling on Official NFL Bears Fire and Ash Avatar Fan Hoodie to stay in stride.

The antidote for the 46 is to spread out the defense — just like Dan Marino and pass-happy Miami did in that MNF game in 1985 (the Bears lone loss) while the stunned home crowd sat silently in their Official NFL Bears Fire and Ash Avatar Fan Hoodie. By playing 3 WR, a TE slotted wide, and one back, the 46 is forced to make tough choices. Offenses with pass-catching backs and athletic TEs (the Niners had both) get three big mismatches out in space: TE vs. SS WR3 vs. FS RB vs. MLB. Plus, Offenses also can play base shotgun formation, which helps the QB get rid of the ball faster AND prevents the QB from ever having to turn his back vs. the Bears on-rushing defense.
