[QUOTE="PackerfaninCarolina, post: 641057, member: 9364"] I don't believe he intended to put the put-down full on Mike McCarthy, I think it's just one of those things where ... well it is kinda crazy to think how one man switching the play calling can have as big an impact as this. But to add to that, if he didn't honestly feel that taking back play calling could help his team at all, MM would not have done it. The reason he downplayed doing so is because he wants his team to be focused, and he's patient. I truly believe he felt his assistant coaches would pull through and fix everything, but it didn't happen, and at this juncture of the season when his team's in a race for the playoffs and the division, he knows the margin for error is becoming smaller and smaller and that having a more steady hand at the wheel is important. Also Clements has been a good QB coach, and does a good job working up in the booth, a position that's highly underrated. We probably wouldn't have the success we do without that. I just think calling the plays in and doing the big driving work that MM has been so good at for years is something we had to keep. [B]There is no either or situation here, it's not "Packers' offense is solely reliant on MM calling plays for it's success", nor is it "Packers' offensive success and execution has nothing to do with MM calling the plays"[/B]. But look, sometimes you try something new like what we did this year and it just doesn't work. And sometimes the way you fix that, is you just gotta go back to doing what you did before that you had success with. I'm glad they did, and I'm hopeful we'll be building off of it. [/QUOTE]
