Everything is eventually gets evened out. After D coordinators saw it more they adjusted. Less sub packages, more versatile personnel, etc. You saw the rise of the Safety/LB hybrid a lot over the last couple years for this very reason. Pace is good, but the issue is pace that doesn't convert wears out your own defense instead of the opponent. I think almost every team in the league has an up tempo series they can run at anytime, but doing it too much isn't advisable....ask Chip Kelly.
