Vinny16 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 When my wife's reaction is "why didn't they give it to Beast Mode", you know Bevell out-thunk himself. I'm not even sure it can be said that Bevell out thought himself. I just don't see how that play call could result from any kind of thought process a rational human being who knows anything about football could have. It's almost like he just took the playsheet, closed his eyes, and pointed to it and went with whatever play his finger landed on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMC Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Thanks. I'll watch more American football. Or at least watch Seattle. I can't understand how you can say "that's who they are." "Who they are" is not 3-wide at goal line and have Wilson throw a pick-slant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lizard King Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I think the result of the play was awful, sure. I think we're overstating how bad a call it was. That's the offense they run. That's what got them the lead in the first place. I think Collinsworth's little freak out provided the confirmation bias people needed to resolve the angst over the cheating ******* Patriots winning the game. It was such a bad call that an undrafted rookie from a junior college knew the route from film study and jumped it. It's the same call that got Schotty thrown out of town when he pulled it against Pittsburgh in the afccg. It's the kind of call that ruins dynasties.

It's just entirely unthinkable how anyone could make that call..EVER...You could see that play 100 time and 100 times that ball should be run there... there is NO scenario there, EVER, where the ball should be thrown.

Cyberjet Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I agree - seattle doesn't recover from this with staff and players as is. To work so hard and have thrown away at the last possible second by an self serving play call will play on this team's psyche. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FYI, the Giants defense lost the SB in 2007 and 2011 against the Pats, until the offense marched down the field and scored the game winning TD. The exact scenario facing the Seahawks here ... until Bevell made the decision that will haunt him for a lifetime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HessStation Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Three times now I've heard him say "we were gonna' waste a play" I think what he's saying is, "I didn't overturn the call bc I didn't take it serious enough bc I wanted to run the right play on the next down with the clock stopped...after the incomplete pass."

The curse of the uncatchable Hail Mary showed up for a third time and the guy blew it!! You've gotta have a better chance of winning the lottery than a third uncatchable ball like that.

Vinny16 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I can understand a play action - that's it. You lose with your strength - 2 runs clock running down. If Pats stop you - hats off. Play-action that has Wilson rolling out with a run/pass option is the only pass play that I could see as being the result of rational thought in that situation. On 2nd and goal from the 1/2 yard line, it's still a terrible decision, but I could understand it. Any other kind of pass play there, especially a slant with the receivers in tight like they were, is just dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinamite Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 From some reporters, it appears that bevell said he called the play but also blamed the wide receiver Lockett.

At that point I was concerned with stopping Tammy from driving down with 2 TO's and only needing a FG...the idea of a not scoring a TD was not even a thought. Honestly BB was going to let them score - he didn't even call a TO... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinny16 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 That's what I am saying - this team and coaching staff are done as presently set up. Gotcha. My apologies for not reading carefully enough. I do think they can recover with that one change, though, although they're going to have a new DC next year as well with Quinn leaving for Atlanta. I think they promote from within for the DC job, unless Quinn takes several coaches with him, and go outside for a new OC, as I can't imagine that Carroll would be dumb enough to retain Bevell after that fiasco.
