While I will never influence an NFL team. I have worked for many organizations, when you take additional duties vs laser focus it certainly a “thing”. That said there can be positive outcomes just as easily as there can be negative ones.
Case in point, while I can certainly armchair criticize McDermott for game play and clock management decisions . The results on defense are pretty clear. They have kept us in games no doubt.
I believe it was McDermott said that current Senior offensive assistant Mike Shula will take on the role of QB coach as Joe Brady takes the role of interim OC.
