For all the s*** Bevel has gotten for not calling the run in obvious situations.....I can count sooooo many times when the opposite was true too. Even in this game. Maybe Bev needs to go; I really don't know enough about the ins-n-outs to say (neither does anyone on this forum, BTW). But the endless criticism of him, even when unforeseen weird things happen, is mind-boggling to me.
I'm with Sis on this one. Hawktawk, you're bias is starting to show. You want Bevell out so badly that you are not being objective. Teams pass from inside their own 5 all the time. And you can't blame Russell for not getting rid of the ball. There's not a lot of places to throw the ball when you're sitting on your hip pockets. It's even hard for me to blame the guard. It's just one of those fluke things that happens to all teams from time to time. Our luck that it came on the 2 yard line.
I'm pretty neutral as far as getting rid of Bevell goes. If we are going to do a complete overhaul of the offense, then I agree, it's better to get a fresh new look with a different OC. I'll trust Pete's judgement.
