I've heard football analysts state that before that many players are atheletes first and if they are forced to think everything out it takes away from their game. Now that we have Romeo he'll be given a fair chance under a good DC. This year will be a new beginning or his last as a Chief. JMO

There are very few defensive schemes that simply allow a player to just roam around and follow their basic instincts.

Every player has a responsibility within the scheme, and Romeo Crennel's defense relies on intelligence and playing within the system even more than most.
