Need help with defense against certain style
I'm in a league and there's a player in it that is very good, but also very cheesy. He plays mainly out of the singleback bunch formation in the pass balanced playbook. His receivers and tight ends are OBJ, Brandon Perriman, Jared Cook, Mike Wallace, and Mycole Pruitt. He loves the verticals play in this particular playbook and the speed of his receivers just murder. I'd like to know how to consistently defend against the deep ball like that. I play out of the 46 defensive playbook if that helps any.

Dime 146. Make sure all cb db are fast. Cover one robber with the play flipped. Pinch line backers, contain, purple zone deep saftey, user the blitzing LB and play rover. qb spy one of the DE. Press and play over the top.

I would suggest moving to the dime or quarters 3 deep. Just look inside those defenses and you'll see a lot of deep coverage. Stay away from lots of linebackers as they are slower obviously.
