The ideal scenario is to get pressure from 4, 5, 6 guys so you can still have guys back in coverage.
The key to aggressiveness is the timing of it. You can't blitz 6 guys every play just like you can't play ultra soft every play.
On occasion you're going to get burnt with aggressive play. But I would much rather go down swinging than standing there with the bat on my shoulder.
