Good luck trying to block Keion White in a one-on-one situation.
In fact, the New England Patriots standout defender doesn't believe there's a single offensive guard in the NFL who could block him one-on-one.
It's hard to disagree with that point after watching him and the rest of the Patriots' defensive front run roughshod over the Chicago Bears on Sunday. White finished the game with four tackles, one pass deflection, one sack, two tackles for a loss and two quarterback hits.
“I don’t think there’s a guard in the league that can block me 1-on-1,” White said, via Evan Lazar of Patriots.com.

It's nice to see White speak with so much confidence after the Patriots' 19-3 win over the Bears. The defensive unit recorded nine sacks and 13 quarterback hits against Caleb Williams in Sunday's matchup.
New England's defense used to be proud, but that has been lost due to the recent problems the team has faced this season with players leaving due to injuries, substitutions or other circumstances.
As a defensive player, White has consistent Pro Bowl talent. The Patriots hope he realizes that potential sooner rather than later to get the team back on track.
