I think it's driven, to a great extent, by the talent pool. The tweener 2-3 DE/OLB types are some of the nastiest athletes in the league. The only problem is that there aren't enough of them for everyone to field a great 3-4.
Why are there more in one conference than the other? It's more due to the randomness of coaching/GM hires than where the best passers are.
