In my opinion it is 3-4 even the way I run it. I get safeties at lb and I can put olb on outside thirds and it just really confuses people. Let me know what you guys think.
Currently I run 3-3-5 wide and it’s decent against the pass but I just can’t stop corner routes even with the dark purple zones
I’ll bite: how do you put safeties at LB?

I second this.
4-4 split over 2 invert
i user my safety in the middle, can also audible to engage 8 if you wanna be a menace
Dime 3-2-6, spread LBs, and QB Contain. That's the only anti-rollout defense I've found. I like to mix in blitzes from the Nickel 2-4-5 and stop the run with 4-4 Split. I use the Ravens defensive playbook.
I'm not really caught up with the meta right now, but I've been running 3-3-5 wide out of the bucs defense

It's really complicated. So basically your personnel needs to be 6 DTs, 1 DE, 2 OLB, and 2 MLB. You want to have DTs at all 4 DT slots, and also at both starting DE positions. You then want your one DE at both LE and RE. After that, you need to have your two OLB starting at MLB and being a backup at OLB. For the MLB, you start them at OLB and put them in as the backups at MLB.
Once you get in-game, you need to follow these steps:
1. Go to 3-4 even
2. Sub in your DE at ROLB then sub him back out
3. Sub in that same DE at LOLB and back out
4. Sub in that same DE in at DT
5. Pause the game
6. Go to coaching and click depth chart
7. Auto re-order your depth chart
8. Your one DE should be starting at RE as long as it is your highest OVR RE, move him to backup RE
9. Move the DE that you just made backup RE to starting LOLB
10. Go to ROLB and make your MLB2 starting ROLB (should be in the #2 slot)
11. Still in ROLB, move the ROLB that you just made backup into the #4 backup spot
12. Go to RE and put your actual ROLB at starting RE
13. Go to LE and put your actual LOLB at starting LE
14. If something like your quarterback goes in at LB, all you have to do is sub one of your safeties out and it should move them to LB
Hope you like this defense and it helps out!
