I find it more difficult to believe that a HC of Pederson's pedigree would come into a situation where the GM was allowed to bark orders at his DC. Or in the case that he didn't know what he was getting into when he signed his contract, would not then just shut this crap down immediately once it started. This sounds awfully made up to capitalize on the worst loss of the season and to specifically be fed to the rabid anti-Baalke crowd.

This is where I am at. I need to hear from all parties involved. What was the logic or rationale behind taking Walker and Lloyd and then making the decision to play them outside of their natural positions coming out of college. None of it's adding up.

It's not adding up flow chart wise and it's literally not adding up on the stat sheet. There's a disconnect somewhere and everybody has been pretty much mum about who is responsible for what. Pederson basically took an easy way out of this situation on defense by stating he stays out of it.

Does this mean Caldwell has complete freedom and quality control with his personnel or is something in the way of that? Somebody had to have sat down with these guys and asked or got the greenlight to draft Walker and draft Lloyd and confidently state they could coach them into different roles at the highest level of this sport.

What bothers me, is that, twelve weeks in, we've seen a continued decline from these players and not enough flashes of talent or plays being made to warrant any hope for their futures. It was there earlier in the season and now it feels like they've left this team at the altar with cold feet since September.

What's stopping or preventing Walker and Lloyd from simply moving over into their more natural positions they exceled at during their college careers? That's the $1M question and somebody has an answer for that [BLEEP] in that building.
