And, if Brady gets a HC gig, I'd be surprised if DJ Mangas isn't given a hard look as his right hand as OC. Very little experience, but very in tune with the offense Brady wants to run.

I root for the Panthers and watch their games. I would be shocked if Joe Brady becomes an NFL head coach in the next few years. The panthers move the ball well, but don't score TDs.

It is very difficult to install your offense and have an immediate success with existing personnel. LSU, on the other hand, is a different story with a truck load of 4 and 5 star recruits. Carolina had a career backup Teddy Bridgewater as their QB and was without McCaffrey for most of their games.

Also keep in mind that Buffalo's OC, Brian Daboll, seemed to be a disaster last year but is a hot commodity this year. The main difference was getting Stefon Diggs so that the offense had the personnel to run his scheme. As tribeintexas said, presumably NFL front offices aren't holding the Panthers' personnel against him.

I also like the W&M connections in play with Daboll, who got his first coaching job at W&M in McDermott's senior year. Diggs is a little more tangential, but he played his first college game against W&M, in a game we could have won. IIRC, he was largely shut down by BW Webb.
