PROB was playing off the line in our last preseason game to get reps in a very vanilla defensive look. PROB also has the luxury of not playing in a Spags defense and he has the luxury of having Byrd as the FS instead of Malcolm Jenkins.

PROB will be fine. I'm honestly feeling a break-out year for this dude.

Hope your right. I did notice a lot of off coverage in the pre-season; not a fan of that myself.

If I remember correctly, Robinson has always excelled in press man...

Which is the scheme RR is likely to play the most during the season. He will mix it up at times with some off man coverage, and also some zone... but I expect more press than anything else.
