No, its more complex then that in my opinion. For a team like the Lions that runs a 3-4 but there front 7 is listed like a 4-3, there 3-4 package is set automatically like it is using the 4-3 personnel package but with the ROLB being the Nickel RE it seems. Then for actual 3-4 teams like the Steelers they have Watt and Highsmith as there OLB, but there interior defensive are DT1, DT2, and LE1. Its like the bug happened by changing how the 3-4 is set up for teams like the Lions it in turn messed with the traditional 3-4 setup for actual 3-4 teams

So an odd thing I just discovered. I created a 3-4 defensive playbook to use with my 1984 roster. When I use that playbook, the 3-4 glitch is no longer a problem.
Not sure how or why it makes a difference that it is a custom playbook.

You need to use a custom playbook, not a generic one. Again, don't know why, but the playbook I made for use with 80s style play, the glitch did not occur. I have tried it a couple of times now.

Unfortunately, this does not help with CPU teams since in franchise you can not give the CPU a custom playbook. That is without a crazy work around.

I’m not too familiar with this bug since I run a 4-3 but i played a game against the Packers the other day and I was seeing Kenny Clark lined up at OLB dropping in to coverage so I’m assuming that was due to this bug

If its in Franchise its because they probably have him listed as the Nickel DE instead of DT
