You can stop asking the ‘3-4 or 4-3?’ question now

“Are the Detroit Lions going to be a 4-3 or a 3-4 defense this year?”

It’s the question that nearly ever Lions fan has asked ever since new head coach Matt Patricia walked into the building. On Wednesday, Patricia finally put an end to the speculation during his NFL Combine session with the media. So what’s it going to be, Matt? 3-4 or 4-3?
