Re: deck posts and footer
Eccentrically loaded footings, if that is what those are, provide engineering that the footings are designed for eccentric loading (which will also answer the question of 'if that is what those are').

As Rick said, those wood forms should have been, and need to be, removed, and those footings are also likely to only be skin deep (as deep as the wood forms).
