Mike Shanahan style offences is all the rage in the NFL right now.

Kyle Shanahan, Matt LaFleur, Sean McVay, Arthur Smith, Zac Taylor, Mike LaFleur (w/ Saleh)

all more or less run some variation of Shanahan's scheme.

The draft has just suddenly got much more competitive with 6 teams competing for the same type of offensive players. Whew!

It could be 7 teams depending who the Titans hire for Offensive Coordinator.

Maybe this time next year Hackett, Mike LaFleur and Mike McDaniel will be head coaches and that's potentially another 3 teams competing for the same players.

If Mike LaFleur were to get a HC position......and that team was to play GB.....

Has there ever been an instance when brothers coached against each other?

The Harbaugh brothers... in the Superb Owl no less.

EDIT: Didn't see this was already answered

Do they, though? I think the upside to the Shanahan scheme is that it works for tweener-type players who fall, and are common - light, versatile linemen with the zone blocking, WRs who aren't necessarily blazers but are big and willing to block, RBs who may not have the size or speed but have vision and decisiveness. 

Basically, all the guys who slide out of the first 2 rounds. And when you have a chance at a stud, you grab him and then fill in the gaps with values.

Potentially the grudens, the Ryans, and the harbaughs. At least in the “modern” era.

Could either team even afford him? 

As a USC fan I’d love him here. Plus he would be a great 2 for Adams. All the stupid tik tok stuff I feel is just the culture currently in Pitt (brown, bell, etc) that place is very unbuttoned.

Adams, Rodgers, Bak and Lewis if he resigns would straighten that out.

but yeah the money won’t allow this at all.
