Hearing that phrase reminds everyone of the legendary Lawrence Taylor-led pass rush that dominated the 80s and early 90s, a unit that was run by current Patriots head coach and future Hall of Famer Bill Belichick.

“I come into the league, and I meet Bill Belichick, he is an assistant special teams coach,” Taylor told Rich Kleiman of the ‘Boardroom: Out of Office’ podcast.
