How good can the discussions have been? It's dangerous to divide a complex issue into two opposing viewpoints and then have a discussion on one side, as you end up with an echo chamber that throws away all the reasonable fifty shades of gray in the middle. I'll bet that if you were to conduct a fan-base poll on Bevell's rank among OCs that 'average' would come in behind both the 'completely sucks' crowd and the 'better than average' crowd.pehawk":1hdfyh9z said:What's amazing all year theres been good discussions, after every game, talking in very specific terms, and none of the Bevell defenders have ever participated in those threads.
MizzouHawkGal":1x0esuef said:Logically that makes sense but I don't think they do it because Wilson really doesn't want to run anymore then he has to and he knows that the game is always decided in the 4th quarter unless for some reason we're down by 20+ points (Atlanta). So I think he's thinking why run unless absolutely necessary because of the above and the fact that he trusts that his teammates are capable of making a play, it's pretty obvious he trusts Kearse given he threw to him five times with four of them being intercepted and the last one being the money play.In the end, I just think Wilson Running gives the offense a whole new element for the D to think about.
Frankly I wish he would just rush a few times earlier to keep the defense honest.
Basically is it wrong to assume that if you're an NFL quarterback that your wide receivers are capable of doing their damned jobs and catching a ball now and again? Given if they do then Wilson doesn't need to be running like a running back. Scramble around? Sure, but designed running ten times a game? No.

Bevell is average. The best part of Bevell is Cable's run concepts. The passing attack hasn't progressed in his time here. He's still prone to odd decisions that defy common sense. He's an incredibly slow starter, who's slow starts get masked by an elite defense.
The pavlovian response to any criticism to him is ridiculous. He's average. X and O analysts routinely call the passing game a high school offense. And average is okay on this team, it truly is.
What's amazing all year theres been good discussions, after every game, talking in very specific terms, and none of the Bevell defenders have ever participated in those threads. None of them participated in a thread by me, giving him props, for the blitz beaters installed in Arizona game. None of the defenders participated in any of those weekly threads, just the threads where they can safely hide behind vague catch phrases.
No one is saying he sucks. He's Andy Dalton.
This and really there was chances for him to run but he waited to long to do it and waited too long early on to pass too..There were wrs getting open ..You can't blame the line or Bev ..Fox had the cam behind the qb so there are no excuses..For whatever reason he was off for most of the game and I'm sure the tipped passes for ints didn't help but he forced 1 into double coverage..He of course redeemed himself and won so it's all good..MizzouHawkGal":30ttyoyk said:Green Bay contained him by having nearly every pass Wilson threw being intercepted or dropped. Do you really think Wilson is going to throw four interceptions in one game in the near future again?
I agree with this and it could very well be the problem ..Great point! :th2thumbs:theENGLISHseahawk":1hhaky21 said:Seattle has a top ten offense and several clubs are scrambling around to find anyone to run their offense (including San Fran & St. Louis).
Why are people complaining again?
It's not about being beyond criticism. I just don't know what people expect. Seattle has a very good offense. To expect it to be as lights out as the defense is to expect the current incarnation of the Seattle Seahawks to be the greatest football team to ever play the game. That is an unfair expectation IMO.
