Of course there's something to the trust thing. All our receivers routes require a decision by the receiver based on the defense. The receiver better make the same decision as Brady,or he's not getting passes. Of course, new receivers have to earn that trust, but Brady doesn't wait for guys to get open, he often throws to a spot assuming the receiver will break that way, not another. Miscommunication can mean interception.
I think every NFL offense has some form of this in their system- it is not unique to us. It just seems like it’s really hard for people to catch on to our system.
One of the things I wanted to see when Jimmy Garappolo got treated, was how soon would he be able to acclimate to a different system with different language, new receivers, etc. Dare I say- much less talented receivers, less talented coaching staff, and JG being much less experienced and not as good as TB12. It took only a couple weeks and it seems the acclamation process was without many issues in SF as they just hung 40 on one of the best defenses in the NFL last week. Dorsett has been here all year and if there are still communication or trust issues that are keeping him from succeeding, that either says he is that bad or our system is that complicated.
