Chuck Pagano’s no fool. He knows the key to stop Tom Brady and the Patriots.

Rob Gronkowski.

Tom Brady's Lucky The Colts Complained, Not The Ravens

"It's all hands on deck so to speak," he said when asked how he’ll cover the Patriots TE, per NFL.com. "He is a matchup nightmare. You've got to pick and choose and try to change up."

“He's a unique, unique, unique player. He's got an unbelievable skill set for a big, big guy."

Julian Edelman Can't Resist Tom Brady

Standing 6’6” and weighing 265 lbs., Gronkowski truly is a unique player -- one incapable of being denied with your standard nickel or dime defense.

Pagano and his defensive staff will need to conjure up something he's never seen before.

That’s one way of doing it, but even Pagano is aware it’s implausible.

"He's not the only one that's a problem," he continued. "If there was just one guy that you had to deal with, then you could devote half your defense to them, but unfortunately they've got more.

“They've got the quarterback. They've got the offensive line. They've got three runners. They've got a bunch of guys that can beat you.”

In that case, they’ll have also have another 45-7 victory on Sunday.
