interesting tidbit I hadn’t heard Iefore: “McDermott had eased up some. In the past, he had a tendency to ruffle his assistants. But he now allows offensive coordinator Joe Brady -- who has done a great job harnessing some of Allen's wild-horse play -- and defensive coordinator Bobby Babich to do their jobs. That's growth for a coach who knows he had to change in an attempt to try and get this team over the top.”
