I do feel the local media has really struggled with adjusting to what seems to me to be a clear difference from previous coaches - at least this first year. There was a constant drive to figure out who is first and second at guard and other positions based on snaps and who got the first snaps, but it seems obvious (and Gase said it outright), that he wanted to see everyone, give everyone a chance, and keep swapping pieces. Essentially, the whole 'who has the starting position' question was rendered unanswerable throughout training camp.
Gase clearly has a defined approach and mentality and no-one in the media seemed to either grasp or believe it.
