Sure. 100% of the time, particularly as a 3-4 OLB, you wouldn't rush 100% of the time.
A Zone Blitz D would have DL drop into coverage routinely.
At the same time, when you draft a freakish pass rusher, you should find a way to have him routinely rush the passer. Instead, for the majority of the first 10 games, when MS played, he was dropping into coverage. When Manusky started having him routinely rush the passer, he started making some noise.
