The front 4 getting too much pressure is exactly why screens work.

You catch the front 4 being overly aggressive and let them blow through the line and take themselves out of the play. Now your blockers are out in front of the back and can take on the second level defenders like the linebacker you mentioned.

What blows up a screen is the DL not rushing the passer but following the blockers as they move to create the screen. The only way to do that is to be less aggressive and pay more attention to what the blockers are actually doing.

No, what happens is the second level defender makes the tackle in the backfield.
