Have you read any of the posts in this thread? We don't have an option but to play a 3-2-6. You have more fingers on one hand than "front seven" players worth a shite on the roster right now.
3-2-6 does work against some teams. It will not work against a team with a great run game. The run game will be a problem because our soft arse defense shies away from contact outside of Campbell.

This. And it's not exactly easy to go from a 3-2-6 to a 4-3 defense one week to the next.
and if you're just wanting to add a DL just to eat up a block then you have to take a player from somewhere else. A safety can eat up a block just as much as a crappy DL that isn't good enough to get double-teamed.
What you should be asking for is more blitzing if you just want to eat up a blocker.

IIR the 3-2-6 was installed this year because of the roster gaps, not because it is Durkin's preference. Overlooked here is that the D did quite well 1st half holding AR to 14. The shite hit the fan in the second which might be attributed to lack of quality depth. Notice the same thing happened to AR's D which runs a very similar but more talented D to ours.
I agree that the 3-2-6 is just not the best option against a quality running team. For you guys wanting to just add another body peruse the depth chart and tell me who would you add? Also, when an offense or defense is installed it's not easy to make major changes say from 3-2 to 4-3 on the fly.
