It's a huge improvement, but it is by no means the perfect fix you suggest.

Issues:

1. The OL does not prioritize inside protection (they give up the inside rather readily).
2. The Defensive Linemen gets off of blocks without sufficient engagement.
3. All players on the LOS move in perfect synchronization once the ball is snapped (no delays based on awareness).
4. Defensive line's first move is still up.
5. The linemen engage before setting up a pocket, and the DLine disengage prematurely.

At least the pressure is there, but it's not occurring through realistic means. Defensive linemen, even the best, spend more time than that in upfield engagement (push, not evasion), and usually do not release until they are within a yard or two of the quarterback.
