The McCourtys confirm: Greg Schiano’s Patriots defense will stay aggressive

Oh sweet, we’re going to have an AGGRESSIVE defense? Awesome! For a minute we were all worried that the 2019 defending Super Bowl Champion Patriots were going to have a defense that was like “Nah, ‘aggressive’ really isn’t our thing”. I bet they’ll want to be PHYSICAL and GET AFTER THE QUARTERBACK too!

Jokes about football cliches aside, Greg Schiano playing Chewbacca to Belichick’s Han Solo on the defensive side of the ball seems like one of the biggest wild cards facing the ‘19 Pats, especially after a couple times this past fall when his Buckeyes, charitably speaking, got their lunch money taken when they actually played against real teams and not the South Central Louisiana State Mud Dogs.
