Receivers' coach doesnt pamper his players

Some might call Green Bay Packers coach Jimmy Robinson a perfectionist, a slave to detail, a man obsessed with the little things
Or as receiver Greg Jennings prefers, just plain "annoying."
If there's anyone who can keep the Packers' soaring receivers corps grounded, it's the diminutive Robinson.....
All you have to do is watch one practice and you understand the lengths Robinson goes to make sure that his receivers line up properly, run their routes precisely and block with the vigor of an offensive lineman.
The receivers regularly joke about Robinson's overindulgence with detail, probably to hide a layer of pent up frustration that comes from constantly being corrected. What isn't hidden is their acknowledgment that Robinson has made them better receivers.
"I gotta say he's one of the best coaches I've had since I've been here," Donald Driver said.
