So in real games we'll see how many teams attempt to do that to him.

As mentioned before, his pass coverage isn't my biggest concern. That said, the athletic TE's today abuse most LB's.
Another point, when have you seen Merriman or Suggs blanket a TE? They don't.
Finally, the matchup has as much to do with Clancy as it does the opponents OC. Hali won't see the TE too much. As I have pointed out many times, most 3-4's play like 5-2's... which means that Hali will be rushing the passer on most plays. DJ or Pollard will be covering the TE most of the time.
It will be interesting to watch, but so far, it is pretty encouraging.
