Using just the eye test I'd say they're about equal in coverage.
I would think a "better" cover corner would at least be capable of snagging some INTs.
I'll close with some bullets from Eli's scouting report coming out of college...he hasn't changed a bit...the guy does not learn.
Pay attention to who gets targeted more. Last year, it was Eli. This year, since Awuzie went down, opposing teams are throwing at CTB quite a bit more than Eli. That’s not by accident. CTB is playing well for a rookie, I’m not saying he’s not a good player. But judging coverage skills on interceptions isn’t a fair way to evaluate corners if they aren’t getting targeted equally.
