C Mart Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Robert Nunn was named defensive line coach on January 23, 2006, by Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy. Nunn, 40, coached the Packers\' defensive tackles in 2005, taking essentially the same personnel from 2004, when the club finished 25th overall defensively, and turning them into the anchor of a defensive unit that ranked seventh in 2005. Under Nunn, defensive tackle Grady Jackson started all 16 games for only the second time and responded with career bests in tackles (72) and passes defensed (4). And, promising nondrafted players Cullen Jenkins and Colin Cole also flourished under Nunn\'s stewardship. A 17-year coaching veteran, Nunn has five seasons of NFL experience. He broke into the league as a defensive assistant with the Miami Dolphins in 2000, then served as Miami\'s assistant defensive line/quality control coach for the 2001-02 campaigns, during which he worked with Pro Bowler Jason Taylor. The coach also worked the 2004 season for the Dolphins as a special assistant, beginning in August with a variety of off-the-field projects, and then assisted with the linebackers after Jim Bates was elevated to interim head coach for the final seven games. In 2003, Nunn headed up the Washington Redskins\' defensive line and coached Bruce Smith when the defensive end broke Reggie White\'s all-time NFL sacks record. Nunn\'s college coaching experience was highlighted by nine years at Georgia Military College in Milledgeville, Ga. After one season as defensive coordinator, the school promoted him to head coach and athletic director in 1992. In his eight seasons holding that position, Nunn was 66-19 (.776). He had launched his coaching career at Northeastern Oklahoma in 1988, heading up the defensive line. He then tutored defensive ends at the University of Tennessee for two seasons (1989-90). A former linebacker at Oklahoma State, Nunn served as team captain in 1987. http://www.gmc.edu/about-gmc/gmc-news.cms/2006/1408/packers-name-nunn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he came here, he'd happily drive the defense in to the ground like he did in Philly and SF. Our defense is already in the ground, burrowed a hole. The offense needs something that is somewhat innovative, because they don't have the talent to line up man vs. man with many defenses without looking horrible. For example, Kapernick put up very similar numbers to the year when they went 12-4 and were thought to be the team of the future. Same rushing totals and eerily similar passing totals to when people thought Kapernick was a franchise QB. Nick Foles put up a great season one year, and then did decent the year after (he got hurt when they were 6-2) and then they had to turn to stud Mark Sanchez, who had his best statistical season in his career as well. The system needs a mobile QB (Kapernick) or deep arm strength (Foles). Yet, we decide that the offense will destroy the defense. The SF defense was 27th in ratings last year, dropped all the way to 28th this year. Philly was ranked 26th in the final year with Reid on defense according to Football Outsiders. With Kelly, 23rd, 10th, and 17th. Why is it such a narrative that the defense takes a drastic downturn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it was Richard Sherman, but I could be wrong, who said they knew the play as soon as the Eagles broke the huddle. Oh, and he's a schmuck. The exchange of players shouldn't matter, if they get better by personnel changes, they get better. If they get worse players, they get worse, that is on the GM. I'm saying Chip Kelly doesn't have this drastic effect on the defense that the narrative would suggest. Sure, it's not going to be a great defense unless some miracles happen, but I don't think Chip will have this wholesome negative effect on it. His offense is based on two things. Running game, and deep passing game. Everything revolves around it. When Vick and Foles were there, they did great because Vick could control both, and Foles had a great arm. It's the whole horizontal/vertical mechanics. That offense took a nosedive when they brought in Bradford (which Kelly wanted) because he could no longer throw the deep pass. I think this is where Kelly struggles as a coach, because he's bad at talent acquisition. He tends to rely too much on his roots, which caused a high number of picks from the Pac 10. Bradford is a horrible fit for the system, because he's neither mobile, nor can he throw the deep pass. He's pretty much a younger/better version of Fitz. If they figured out his system, why did Kapernick put up stats similar to his breakout year with no weapons at all? I mean Kerley was Devin Smith-ed last year for us, and he was their No. 1 WR. For example, Kelly considers the QB as an extra blocker in theory. So if it's a read option play, the QB just being there should occupy one defender. This doesn't happen when it's Bradford at QB. The other way it works is that, if the QB has a strong arm, the safety can't come in the box, so the strong arm is occupying the safety. Again, Bradford didn't do this. Petty fits the mold, because he can run a little bit, and he has a strong arm. Hackenberg fits the mold with the strong arms, I'm not sure he's going to run much though. It's true for a lot of spread systems, especially high tempo ones. Chan Gailey does the same thing. I believe Petty mentioned that when he was drafted, and Gailey mentioned that as well. There is a limited amount of base calls, it's the QBs job at the line to audible out based on reading the defense. Hence, why you see Fitz yelling and screaming most times prior to the snap. I think Gailey's biggest issue was that the team didn't go up-tempo enough, which allowed for substitutions. He is a schmuck, and he is an idiot when it comes to drafting and trading. I would never want him as a GM. But as an OC, I think his system works very well and it fits our current roster. My ideal pick is Helfrich, who brings the same system without being a jackass, but I have no problem with Kelly running the offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
