I always laugh at "aggressive" defenses when it comes to DCs. I think in the entire history of football no DC has come in and claimed in their press-conference , "I'm going to bring in a much more passive and bendable defense."

You're missing the point

The Jags interviewed a coordinator yesterday who blitzed 22% more than the Jags did in 2023 and runs almost exclusively man. 

Jags have zero man coverage specialsts in their secondary. 

If they hire a guy who is that much more legitimately aggressive - they have to alter personnel radically unless he radically alters scheme. 

And coaches have an array of platitudes to describe less aggressive styles. 
"Read and react"
"Limit explosives"
"New plan for every opponent"
"We'll be multiple" 
"Tailor scheme to talent" 
Etc
