Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy has decided to resume calling the team's offensive plays, league sources told ESPN, reclaiming a responsibility he gave to associate head coach Tom Clements in the offseason.
McCarthy is following the advice of people in the organization urging him to take over the task, but he had been reluctant to do so because it might create a negative perception about the performance of Clements and new offensive coordinator Edgar Bennett.
The head coach is considered one of the best offensive playcallers in the league. The Packers have struggled offensively since starting 6-0, going 2-4 in their past six games -- including consecutive losses at Lambeau Field.
