I think the coaching staff basically tells the defense "be hyper aggressive and pinch all the time, except when you shouldn't, and don't make any mistakes. Now get out there!" and the players are afraid to both make a mistake and be aggressive. Then they get stuck between playing aggressive and passive. They don't know when to do what and feel simultaneously afraid not to pinch and afraid not to pinch.
