I'm not sure that we do see improvement against elite offenses, that doesn't mean that the D hasn't improved. Maybe just not enough to matter against an elite offense. They look like an NFL caliber defense against non-elite O's.

But the rules are so slanted, defenses haven't caught up to these schemes yet, and QB's are completing passes at such a high rate that i have a hard time seeing any defense keeping up if said O is rolling.

I just checked, and even Philip Rivers is completing almost 68% of his passes. Matt Ryan is completing 70% of his passes. The success that QB's are seeing right now is off the charts.
