SB49 audible by Russ??? Explains a lot.

[nwHawk]

I never heard or read anything about Russell Wilson audibling from a Marshawn Lynch run to the fateful pass failure in the Bowl against the Patriots. I always wondered, but there is no doubt now.

That also explains so much about him paying to fly the whole team and their families to Hawaii to bond, and heal. It explains the bitterness by players.

Oh my god, this is a spoof account, listen to what Lynch said he said they thought about audibling but instead ran the play called.

Official team Russ rep John63 ably defended his Russ.

Damn Dean, they're not even people to you now?

Getting to the point of religious fanaticism

 

[Cyrus12]

Whether he made the call or not I definitely thought right away it was about Russ being mvp...I mean Lynch would not have even spoke to the media afterward if he won..

 

[chrispy]

...even worse that he changed the play in the huddle (but he can't read a Defense so I guess that makes more sense than changing at the line). I applaud the organization for not throwing him under the bus at the time although it resulted in the loss of a lot of great players. Onward and upward.

This is literally a fake news story. Russ didn't audible, Lynch already confirmed that. But it doesn't change the fact we would have won that sb with almost any other qb in nfl

Look, there have been a lot of revisionist history regarding the Seahawks and Wilson, but there is video of Pete Carroll saying give me a pass here right before the huddle was initiated. Carroll chose pass because the down and he didn't want to leave too much time for Brady. Bevell was the moron who came up with the pass play choice. The interview with Lynch is obviously talking about the people in the huddle looking to Wilson if he was going to audible out of the pass play.

IF this was a true story, Lynch would have admitted it. He doesn't pull punches and does not BS.

You honestly think that a QB could call an audible at the LOS in the SB, blow the play, lose the game for all the other players and none of the players (even the ones that left the team) would say anything about it?

Unlikely.

Especially because you know other players would have heard the audible, and it would have gotten out into the lockerroom to all the other players that didn't hear it personally.
It would be impossible to keep under wraps. It would have come out and not just after the Seahawk PR machine with trying to make it look like they made the right choice betting on Pete instead of Wilson.

 

[toffee]

Pure speculation here, please correct me if I'm wrong. I am assuming all plays were sent from the play calling coach to the QB, not all players on the field? I think only the QB. So whatever play called is only known to the coaches and the QB.

In this case, say Pete and Bevel called a play to run the ball by Marshawn, that is only known to Pete, Bevel, and Russ, not to other players. If Russ changed it ..... and called a different play without telling the guys what play was sent in from the booth.

OK conspiracy right here, and baseless.

unless he never relayed the actual call from his helmet and called his own play in the huddle, so not an 'audible' at the line.

that being said I doubt it as well.

Bingo !!!!

Yeah. Russ got the call from Bev. If you listen to interviews from ADB (i think it was him), he talks about the bewilderment of getting THAT call from the sideline and that they collectively wondered if they should audible.

Yes, I interpreted Lynch's comment as RW should have audibled from the original play that was called where Butler intercepted.

iirc, Bevel did say that he made the call and explained his "adaptation" to the goal line defense (still a bad call) and then Pete (as usual) said "It's my fault, it's on me."

IMO - no "coaching" explanation will ever convince me that every play called from the 1 yard line should not have been give the ball to Lynch. If they stop him every time from the 1 then the Pats would deserve the win.

That being said - Wilson should have audibled. "Oh he wasn't allowed to. He might get in trouble and be on the outs with the coaching staff." And I'm sure that no QB in the history of the game has ever defied the coach and audibled out of a play. Lynch scores. They win the SB. Hurt coach feelings/pride goes bye-bye.

Yeah, yeah. Whatevsky, Palevsky.

The important thing on all our minds is what you'll be eating during the game. Tacos? Ribs? Pizza?
