The New England Patriots' preseason opener didn't help to clear up the confusion regarding the offensive play-calling duties.
Since Bill Belichick didn't name an official offensive coordinator to replace Josh McDaniels, it's been a combination of Matt Patricia and Joe Judge splitting the work throughout the spring and summer. They continued to do so in Thursday night's loss to the New York Giants with Patricia calling plays for veteran quarterback Brian Hoyer and Judge taking over when rookie QB Bailey Zappe was under center.
"I thought it would be a good opportunity for us to do that," Belichick said after the game about splitting the play-calling duties.
