I thought they made a switch to single gap when Barry took over. Have I missed something since Barry was fired?

And if this is the case, it could really change the value of a NT in the defense.

I don't want to see Allen playing 2 gaps. I want him getting up field and getting in the backfield, that's his strength.
If the DL does 2 gap in 34 all 3 of the DL don't absolutely have to play 2. The NT and 1 DE can play 2 and Allen can get up field.

Either way true 34 will only be about 30 maybe -40% of the snaps.
