Caleb is a rookie QB. Probably in most cases rookie QBs aren’t in the habit of independently calling TOs in critical moments. He had enough going on trying to get the play from the OC in his helmet with all that crowd noise, get his team the play, remember what the play actually entails, make sure his guys were lining up correctly, etc.
Also, these situations should’ve been game planned for weeks before they happen in a game, no? But obviously they weren’t prepared at any level for that situation. And when it was obvious they weren’t prepared, it was on the HC to intervene and call the TO before too much time ran off the clock. That’s literally his job, isn’t it?
