We may have read the same article. It's very interesting because it seems Bradley's defense will allow more aggression in coverage than we're used. It showed an example of LAC vs TB and I believe they had Quarters on half the field and 4-Cloud on the other which let the CB jump Brady's out-route for a pick-6. I guess they call it Palms.
There's other interesting stuff like his use of Cover-5 with the safety being aggressive... I'm a lineman guy, that's what I watch play-to-play, but I'm actually really intrigued by our DB personnel and Bradley's coverage.
