Shurmur expected to keep calling plays
Browns Offense - TM - Cleveland Browns
Jan. 27, 2012 - 7:35 PM ET

Browns head coach Pat Shurmur reportedly plans to continue calling plays for now, although that could change following Friday's hire of Brad Childress as offensive coordinator.

Shurmur's playcalling didn't exactly evoke fireworks in 2011 (or 2010 with the Rams, for that matter), but the thought of Childress getting the nod is even less appetizing. According to reports out of Cleveland, Shurmur is tentatively expected to open the 2012 season calling plays. He could turn those duties over to Chilly if the offense struggles out of the gate.
