3-4 under cover 3....a run stopper?

I use this play a lot in both passing and possible running situations. If I feel like they're running I'll crash D line to that side and I'll contain the DE on that side. If they come out in 2 TE sets I'll contain both DEs and user a MLB. This works great with the Cowboys but I haven't really tried it with other teams. Give it a shot and let me know if it works as well for you as it does for me.

i found this play very effective in 09 ima lab it and see if it still is. Idk why but it seemed like for a simple cover three the players just made plays.

i used that to stop pa passes, i never tested it against the run. its usually not smart to play zone againt the run.
