I though Chuck Cecil was DC, and Schwartz was just the D line coach?
Anyways, that tree of coaches has a reputation for being chippy. I do think Schwartz wants his team to play on the edge, and cross it occasionally. For the most part I think there are a lot of coaches who don't mind early in the game penalties for overly aggressive play in certain parts of the field. Basically trying to establish how miserable of a day it's going to be type of thing.
But on 3rd and goal when the game could start to get out of reach and a guy who is your best lineman takes that penalty, and gets himself tosses out of the game that's a problem.
Schwartz now has to deal with the situation he created. He was able to bring that mindset to the team...now can he control it, or is he going to let it get out of control. Suh can be a great player. But unless you're Moon...you can clearly see that Suh taking a dumb penalty after a 3rd and goal play fails to score a touch down and getting himself out of the game...is only going to help the other team win.
