I'd say they are playing only slightly more zone this year than they did last year.  

There were a few specific games last year in which they played man coverage almost exclusively as they thought the opponent and matchups dictated that. They really haven't had those games this year - but they still play man coverage according to offensive formation, field position, and down and distance. 

Last year they played maybe 40% of the defensive snaps in man coverage by my estimation. Probably a little less. 
(there was not a single NFL team that played more than 47% of their snaps in man in 2017 according to PFF)

It's obvious that the team just can't handle it this year. I would rather them point at the WR/TE/RB pre-snap so everyone was clear who was covering who. They continue to either not know the play call, the coverages, or where they need to be.

If the play call isn't complicated, then they should know the play and the coverages. So they don't know where they should be or they are just doing their own thing.
