Is the defense TOO multiple?

Haskins led the team to two three-and-outs to start, completing his first two passes on third downs, but both throws were well short of the sticks. The next drive ended prematurely as Haskins threw behind fullback Derek Watt. The ball glanced off Watt's hands and into the waiting arms of Panthers cornerback Brian Burns.

Seems like a waste of an MVP caliber DE to have him playing CB, although he did snag an INT.......

I remember Peppers making a few interceptions out of nowhere, seemingly jumping 20 feet into the air and randomly picking off a pass here and there.

Peppers was an absolute freak. He was just one of those dudes that could probably line up anywhere on the field and be relatively competent playing that position.

You do know that most teams  use their linebackers to rush as well as occasionally mix things up dropping into coverage to confuse the offensive blocking protections and mix up the pass rush....
