Agreed. Just odd the media broke it out today if it's been going on already since last year.
Probably just Pederson maybe trying to put one of his staff in a spotlight to move them up in the NFL ranks.
Otherwise, what's the point?

I think that's exactly what he's trying to do. He left Philly because ownership wouldn't let him promote Press. He's thankful for the opportunities his head coaches gave him and he's paying it forward to someone he believes in.
I didn't like the QB sneak on 3rd and 2 call. That was a little weird to me. The rest I felt was pretty solid besides a few series of, IMO, too many forced runs in a row.

Actually I kind of liked it on 3rd down, it definitely caught Indy by surprise.. Without the stumble TL gets the first down. What I didn't like is doing it again on 4th.
I think this is being blown out of proportion. It was reported like it was groundbreaking news when Doug comes out and says same day it was a collaboration last year.
This is Doug trying to get one of his guys up and over in the NFL. Its a good gesture. We scored 31 points yesterday. Its not how you start. Its how you finish.
Enough said.

Yeah, it's definitely a "Hey Owners, look at my boy over here calling plays for this Ferrari of an offense. Would you like him to take a look at your '83 wood panel station wagon next year? He could probably do something with it."

If he called the second half of the chargers comeback victory, I am all in.

Pederson called plays in the first half of games in 2022, with Taylor calling plays in second halves. Pederson confirmed the news of the change following Sunday's victory. "Press and I have been talking about this for two years now, and it's something I've thought a lot about," Pederson said. "It's not an easy decision without a lot of conversation and just he and I talking about it. He and I have been together now seven years. We kind of know each other. I trust him wholeheartedly. That's why he's my offensive coordinator. He makes good decisions. He's well prepared. It gives me an opportunity to stay engaged within the game and decision-making in the game and help out all three phases a little bit more and deal with officials. It's not easy, but at the same time, I felt like this was the right opportunity."

No one mentions this at all last year. No player or coach says anything about it. No one in the media knows about it.
Maybe it is true but it reads like a half truth at best and looking to cover for the terrible play calling in his 1st game doing that.

Pederson said this before the game and again after the game.
Beat reporter has also conformed from a source that Press called 2nd halves last year. She tweeted that before the game too.
Week one playcalling wasn't much different at all.
Players just didn't execute and fans are blaming the wrong [BLEEP]

Had the announcement not been made prior to the game, I don't think the "bad play calling" narrative would be getting nearly as much play around here. All the criticism would have been focused on the execution as you say. One of the plays in question though, the 3rd down and 2 sneak, was brought up on the radio program last night and I can't remember if they said Trevor, in fact, audibled to it or if he probably audibled to it.
I'm more concerned with the personnel they decided to go with rather than the calls themselves. I really didn't like after the pick off Bigsby's hands then starting the next drive with 3 runs all to Bigsby to go 3 & out. Etienne is the best skill player we have besides Ridley and needs to be in the game.
I also felt the playcalling was a little "bland" it really felt like they were trying to beat the colts but not put too much out there on tape to do it. I think they have a few special packages and plays dialed up for the Chiefs next week and overestimated how easily they could beat the Colts with a more vanilla script.

This makes a lot of sense to me as well, I thought we were pretty conservative. I wasn't a fan of that 3 run sequence either. to be fair, I was saying on my couch how much I didn't like that and I didn't even see where Press was calling anything until Monday lol
Overall, wasn't as dynamic as last year ended...but end result was a W.
clots were tougher than we expected.

Yeah. After the overreaction and what not. We walked out of there with a 10 point lead. That's with us gifting them 7 with the fumble. Defensively we played really well. Offensively we got off to a sluggish start but managed to put 14 points up when it mattered the most in Q4.
The Chiefs lost to the Lions in Arrowhead.
The Bengals with Big Bucks Burrow got murdered by Cleveland.
The Bills got beat by a Rodgerless Jets offense.
These are supposed to be the teams that are to be feared 17 weeks from now. Granted, it's EARLY AS HELL. But, BUT, we did have at least a better start than these guys AND we even get a direct say in how the final seeding shakes out this year potentially with all of them on our schedule.
It's the year of the underdog man. Hear me now. Believe me later. It started with Colorado beating TCU. I expect our team, the Dolphins and Chargers to be pushing for an AFC Title run this year more than those other guys listed above.
