What does "playcalling" mean for your FOF coach?

If you create your own game plan, and (presumably) govern the style of plays that the team will call in various situations... what do we think that the "offensive playcalling" and "defensive playcalling" ratings for your head coach are used for?

Seems to me there are a few possibilities -- and there may be some hints in the game documentation that I'm not seeing at the moment -- but here's a non-exhaustive list:

- they govern the sort of gameplan you get if you ask for the staff to manage it (which is to say it means nothing if you do your own)

- they govern the team's adherence to the gameplan that is in place (a weaker coach will call more plays in a fashion unlike what you want)

- they determine the specific type of plays being called within the classes you decide via the gameplan and dice-rolling (your gameplan dictates short pass here, the coach decides what exact short pass play is called, and a better coach makes better choices here)


Any ideas?
