GREEN BAY, Wis. – How will the Green Bay Packers’ defense differ under new defensive coordinator Joe Barry?
That’s an impossible question to answer because, at this point, even Barry probably only has a rough idea of how he’s going to deploy his personnel. Not only is there a draft class to acquire in a couple weeks, but Barry must figure out the strengths and weaknesses of players. The only way for Barry to learn that is through time on the practice field.
Nonetheless, it’s interesting to look at some of the personnel tendencies from last season, when Mike Pettine coordinated Green Bay’s defense and Brandon Staley coordinated the Los Angeles Rams’ defense with Barry serving as linebackers coach.
