I want to see what happens when they have to dig in and play honest against a quality opponent. Can they pressure with four? Can they cover for more than 3 seconds? Its still early.

I don't imagine those questions will ever be answered for you, Gregg's entire gameplan is based on smoke and mirrors, and the guys he chooses for his defense are guys that can sell the trickery. I don't think there are any "straight-up mano-a-mano" set-ups in his entire scheme. If that is the type of football you want to see, you should probably watch the Jets or the Steelers.
