Zone defense, hard flats are still giving up wide open passes to the flat. What am I doing wrong?

Cover 3 safety purple. Man up the player you want to user on the TE. Use your coverage adjustments: underneath, inside, outside. Best way to get off blocks is to control someone with good strength and block shed. Also if you control a blitzing player will get better block shed. Quick hits to the RB out of shotgun can be slowed down by putting a LB in man against him then fake blitz: this player you man him up with must be on the line or outside your tackles. Fake blitz will make your player take two steps up getting closer to the RB.
