I don't like Jared Allen, Tamba Hali, or Jimmie Wilkerson dropping back for coverage. They're too slow to cover anyone, and they're not bringing anything to the table that our linebackers aren't already.

Greg Robinson used this all the time. I hated it. I remember watching Ryan Simms drop back into pass coverage with a 3 man rush.
The only time I saw it work was in a red zone situation when we played Buffalo a few years back. Could have been the 13-3 season. Simms drops back and grabs the INT off Bledsoe.
Other than that, I've never seen it work (for the Chiefs anyway).
