Is it possible Freddie gives Baker too much Freedom?
-
Think about it, in Baker's press conference, he states that he told Freddie he could get it on 4th down. He also stated that he told Freddie to challenge the play, so Freddie immediately challenged it.
Is it possible Freddie is giving too much trust in Baker, and letting him do his own thing too much? Freddie does what Baker tells him....
Last year it seemed way more structured, and we had a better hierarchy. This year, the adjustments are few and far between, and the playcalling is lackluster at best.
I get that Freddie is in over his head, but that doesn't excuse some of the boneheadedness that's been going on. Such as Hilliard playing on key third downs while Chubb sits on the bench.
Freddie was rushed, and lets face it, Baker didn't train as hard as last year this offseason. He got married and was doing commercials. Who knows whats going on with him and his wife and his head doesn't seem to be in the right place. No longer do we have people like Joe Thomas to keep things together, and we replaced Zeitler with a journeyman like Kush that could never cut it.
I don't understand how we'd drop so much money on our team, but not invest in an O-Line.
If we keep up a losing culture and have no leadership, how are we going to keep these stars?

Baker probably had the first down. The spot was TERRIBLE. Gotta learn to go for the first down/touchdown on 3rd and 3..not 4th down.

Last year Freddy and Baker got to spend a whole lotta time together one on one working on the offensive side of things. That’s pretty much gone away with Freddy taking care of coaching, offense, defense, special teams as well as the media daily. Just too much too fast.

If that is true, it doesn't bode well for Bakers eyes pre-snap. The safety crashing hard on that 3rd and 1 where Chubb lost 3 is something any QB should see and check us into the right play.
Either Baker is too free and it's overwhelming, or he is too restricted. That play alone highlights the pitfalls of both scenarios.

Some of the presnap reading has to be near impossible due to the fact that they break huddle and get up to the line with about 5 seconds left on the play clock every freakin time...
