[QUOTE="TJV, post: 644712, member: 4300"] I think one of the reasons for the shuffling is McCarthy wanted to reward Clements with a better title (and more money?) and retain Bennett. But since McCarthy took back play calling - which according to what he said on his TV show involves more time in putting together the game plan, [I]what the hell do Clements and Bennett do[/I]? Continuity can be a good thing. For example, I wish the Packers hadn't lost John Schneider, Scot McCloughan, John Dorsey, and Reggie McKenzie from their personnel department over the last decade and a half (or at least not all of them). Promoting people in the organization helps to motivate them: If they do a good job they move up in the organization. But it can also led to being stale. Someone like Van Pelt can provide a new perspective but how much 'juice' does he have regarding the offense? This probably won't happen but IMO it would be a good idea to bring in an experienced OC from outside the organization and let Bennett return to positional coaching or let him pursue a real OC job elsewhere. Same with Clements - demote him or let him go. That at least would put someone with a fresh perspective directly reporting to McCarthy regarding the offense. [/QUOTE]
