The truth is that if you're blaming play-calling, then neither Press and/or Pederson is calling the right plays.  Who speaks into the QB's helmet is irrelevant.  The fact that Pederson isn't using the normal coach speak, "We all need to learn from the game tape, and it's my responsibility to get everyone on the same page..." and is instead criticizing the new DC, Trevor, and the Oline is a little disturbing.  That kind of talk can lower players' morale.  For the offense to line up in the second half with multiple 3 and outs, and expect the (winded) defense to win the game for you is nonsense.
