I'm not sure what you mean by this. Zimmer's teams ran a significant amount of cover three and cover two, while Cincinnati has favored cover 1 and blitzing when it comes to high pressure situations. They still run that but have been more conservative on the blitz this season, but Minnesota hasn't been a blitz heavy team under Zimmer. They generally sit in their zones. Their defenses really aren't all that different. Zimmer would be able to step in and work just fine with the personnel this team has.
