This post from Reddit got me thinking. Power struggle between Wilson and Schottenheimer?

I posted this during the game. And it's even more true now.
You see that shit right there? If we lose it's because of that.
Russ has said "screw it", and is checking out of whatever Brian Shottenheimer has called, and instead is audibling to what he wants to run. Brian didn't like that and just called a timeout to get him to run the called play.
Did anyone else catch that?
That's the issue here. When Russ runs the offense we drive down the field, but Pete and Brian Shot want him to play their style. Even though it sucked for 3 quarters.
And Russ was pissed. You never see that happen.
And what happened? They come out of the timeout, and and they're back to a shitty I-formation run for 1yard. Exactly what Shottenheimer wanted.
After that moment, Russ lost all of his flow and never got things back. Threw the pick the following play after their Iso run, and then next drive the fumble. He was in the zone running the offense, but Shottenheimer wanted control and wanted him to run his plays. This does not look like a healthy sign for the season.
