Navy’s new defensive philosophy was made crystal clear during the second episode of Showtime’s “A Season With.”

There’s a scene that captures head coach Ken Niumatalolo in a defensive staff meeting watching film.

“I want to see us on that side of the line of scrimmage. Because I know this: If we play like that in the secondary we’re going to get killed,” Niumatalolo says. “I want to attack. I’d rather go attack the quarterback and be at that level and make him make a decision than staying back. We have to be more disruptive.
