See, this is what I'd like to be able to do: play solid defense without having to do tons of tricks to stop plays that take advantage of poor DB AI, such as the quick fade, the corner, the screen, and the deep out. If you play a cover 2 soft or hard, these routes will be open, even though hot routing the MLB to cover the deep third will take away the TE post.

Can you fill me in a little more on your work with this style of defense--perhaps your views on personnel, adapting the cover 2 playbook to the aforementioned plays? I'd be curious to know how you do this.
