We have seen how other teams have invested into the Nose tackle position with great success. So, what is the past of Noland defenses on Nose Tackles?
A true nose tackle only exists in a 3-4 defense. We have a 4-3 defensive scheme with DTs at the 1 and 3 tech positions. This is the same defensive scheme Nolan had in Atlanta. So expect Nolan to keep the 4-3 scheme. No true nose tackle.We have seen how other teams have invested into the Nose tackle position with great success.

Noland wants a real knose tackle.
He should ask for input from Whitten and Irving

The only place Mike Nolan has run a 4-3 was Atlanta. That defense picked 46 passes in three years. He finished 12th in DVOA his first year, but began to transition to a 3-4 which caused the defense to regress.
The only thing we know we know is he prefers big defensive linemen on the interior.
Asked about his Atlanta defense, “There are probably more good quarterbacks in the league than there has ever been,” Nolan said. “Outside of pass rush, the secondary is where the quarterback attacks you the most. It’s real important to have a good secondary.”
The free safety is very important in his systemWait a coach that actually values the safety position...my dreams have come true lol
