If you're struggling with it, you're using it wrong. Either your personnel don't match well with your opponent's or you are calling it in situations where you're more likely to get beat on deep balls (2nd and 3rd & Long).

You're right about 3/4 man pass rush though and I'm guessing it is contributing to your pass coverage problems. DB's cannot cover indefinitely. So just blitz. If you're getting beat anyway, you've got nothing to lose. Mix in a corner blitz with zone behind it and just change what your opponent is seeing.

I would be furious if they patched either of those things, they work just fine. It separates elite defensive players from the people who very obviously don't know what they're doing.
And by the way I'm 54-13 so obviously "I don't know what I'm doing". Streaks are open every time in man. Period.
