I quoted an article earlier about who was considered the top-ten OC's in the NFL and no one mentioned Bevell who is OC of arguably the most talented team in the league. I have read tons of articles listing top OC's and he's never mentioned. His biggest claim to fame is making the worst call in the history of the NFL. Everyone knows that PC is a defense minded coach who prefers a conservative mistake free offense but without a competent oline and RB it stalls drives where we can't convert third downs. We saw the result of that the first half of the season. Everyone here thinks Bevell was responsible for RW's late season success but it was because we went away from his offense, not because of it, and then let RW be the dynamic player he is.
Read back through your post, and then break it down.
Your first sentence counters your own argument.....Bevell is the OC to "Arguably The Most Talented Team In The League"------They've succeeded WITH Bevell's help.
Bevell is NOT responsible for the development of the shitty play by the Offensive Line, what he is responsible for is, COORDINATING the Offensive Line to help give Wilson every opportunity to succeed, but all too often they get blown up because Defenses breech the non cohesive O-line and force Russell Wilson to go away from drawn up and practiced play-calls.
There's a reason that they call him a Coordinator.....It doesn't mean that he has sole responsibility for the failure of Cable's O-Line.
I have to question just how many of the "Professionals" that you're touting, have received a call from Pete Carroll asking them for advice......I'm betting that it's an itsy-bitsy, teensy-weensy number, eh?
There's lots of moving parts, lots of blame to go around..... Like who's responsible for the Defense falling apart in the first half of the Season, and letting several of the leads that we held that slipped away, for losses.
The blame is on the whole TEAM, not just one person.
OH AND ,Russell Wilson didn't have much faith in the O-Line giving him protection....It was Bevell who convinced him to give a try at passing from the pocket....Amazing how that worked out eh?
