Best Answer

Chuck Fairbanks when he coached the Patriots. It was known at the time as the Oklahoma Defense because he'd created it at the University of Oklahoma.

Actually Tom Landry is credited with developing the 3 4 defense while assistant coach for the New York Giants. Check NFL Trivia for the correct facts.

The 3-4 defense was popularized by Bud Wilkinson, the head coach of the University of Oklahoma football team in the 1940s. However, its exact origin is difficult to pinpoint as several coaches and teams have contributed to its development over the years. The 3-4 defense is characterized by three defensive linemen and four linebackers, providing additional flexibility and versatility in defending against both the run and the pass.
